This summer, Adidas released the next generation model in the Predator series, the adiPower Predator. We’ll get down to the nitty gritty on this exciting new boot and help you decide if it is the right boot for you!

  • Striking new design a return to form
  • Lightweight construction
  • Powerful performance football boot
  • Increased price over the previous Predator

While this doesn’t make any difference to the boot and it will almost certainly still be known as the Predator, it does help them differentiate new models a little better.

Launched in a striking Sharp Blue/Electricity/Black colours, the adiPower Predator is said to be the football boot that best meets the demands of the modern footballer, those needs being ball control, accuracy, power and speed.

For the adiPower, the Predator element of the football boot has been re-engineered with a new silicon rubber material which helps increase the spin imparted on the ball which means better striking of the football in all conditions and therefore better passes, shots and control from you.

The adiPower Predator has also been lightened from previous versions of the boot so this boot helps you run faster and have lighter foot control. Using the sprint frame construction as previously seen in the super-lightweight adiZero F50 football boots, this has reduced the weight of the Predator by 25%.

The Predator has always been the ‘power’ boot for Adidas thanks to its’ Powerspine in the sole of the boot, and the adiPower maintains this technology so if you strike the ball you can be sure you are getting all of the power being imparted into the ball.

The rest of the boot remains fairly unchanged from the super successful Predator X football boot, with a Taurus leather, Traxion outsole and a choice of two stud layouts; a traditional Firm Ground moulded studs layout and a new hybrid Soft Ground version which combines a mix of aluminium studs and moulded studs.

Unfortunately for the masses, the price of the adiPower predator has had to increase given all these enhancements, and they now retail at around £155. Not cheap for a pair of football boots but if you want the best then you need to pay for the best and these boots certainly seem to be that. David Beckham, Steven Gerrard, Nani, Kaka and Robin Van Persie are players who have already worn the adiPower either at the end of last season or in pre-season this year, so if you want to follow in the footsteps of some of the most exciting players, then check out the prices below!
