Predator X - White/Brown/Yellow - adidas Power Football Boots
These are the classy looking second colourways for the brand new adidas Predator X football boots. The tenth incarnation of one of the most successful football boots ever, exclusively unveiled with full details and images by the SoccerBible!
The adidas Predator football boots are designed to dominate the game, as they are worn by the likes of Steven Gerrard, Robin Van Persie, Michael Ballack, David Beckham, Xavi and Daniele De Rossi. So the challenge for the tenth generation of adidas Predator football boots was to surpass the performance features of the previous nine.
To achieve this, the new adidas Predator X football boots have innovative Powerspine technology, unbelievable swerve from the revolutionary Predator element and a host of advancements from adidas, all designed for better performance.
For the Predator X football boots, adidas have developed a revolutionary new upper material called Taurus. Combining full grain calf leather, for softness and excellent ball touch and feel, with high tearing and high abrasion qualities for a durable yet high-end performance upper.
The adidas Predator X football boots are the first Predator to remove the tongue, a bold move which has been done to enhance performance. This new fit reduces the material between the ball and foot to give better ball feel, and the new boot collar gives a more secure fit during movement.
The famous adidas Predator technology is another impressive feature of the Predator X football boots. The redesigned Predator element completely covers the striking zone with a rubber-silicon mix, and the textured surface and soft compound has been placed in an optimal position. Providing every shot and pass with the ultimate swerve, control and accuracy in any weather conditions, achieved through increased contact time with the ball and incredible friction.
Another unique innovation of the adidas Predator X football boots is the Thermoform window on the side of the boot. This contains heat-mouldable foam that follows the shape of the foot for a snug and comfortable fit, and it also houses the new design for the adi three stripes, which has been a real talking point for these new Predator football boots.
A Predator football boot has to be able to generate power behind every shot, and the adidas Predator X football boots are no different thanks to the revolutionary Powerspine. Replacing the Powerpulse element, the Powerspine minimises energy loss and maximises power, as it redirects and transfers shot power directly into the ball.
The adidas Predator X football boots will be available in hard ground, firm ground and soft ground sole-plates, and the new Predator X soft ground boots will feature hybrid studs to give you the benefits of adidas Traxion with a round stud tip. And the new dual compound heel counter will provide support and stability whilst reducing pressure on the Achilles tendon, because although it is smaller it is extremely strong.
Available to pre-order from 26th October, the new adidas Predator X football boots will cost around £135 GBP when they are launched on 14th November. They are a classy and clean looking football boot packed full of technology, and we're excited to see which players will debut this white/yellow colourway, as we're guessing it could be Raul, Xavi, Daniele De Rossi or Robin Van Persie.
So, with two colourways unveiled what are your first impressions of the new tenth generation adidas Predator X football boots?
