I had Predator Absolute from 2005 I think, they were called Beckhams, they were red and silver, loved them as a child. Now I am 26 and rocking predator edge, which aren’t that good, but they get the job done :D

For me Predator Mania is the best Predator that I have used before... Its so wild agressive n after u shoot the ball will auto swing n swerve very nice...i think about the grip for Predator 2024 adidas has make correct decision to used rubber like Mania design...perfect!!!cant explain u need to wear n use later u will know the effect

I used to have the pulse and power swerve boots an loved them both. There is some great history here. Thanks for the awesome video

I started out with the mania, in the grey and red model, which was an absolute beast of a boot, being only 15 og 16 at the time it took a hell of a lot of persuasion. To this day I’ve still got the 2011 model adiPower in the black/red model and have been taking really good care of them, and they fit like a glove. Always loved predators, and Beckham was my hero growing up, so he had a big part in that as well.

At 17:21 when he says that is cool to see them all in one place, the latest one is missing from the box. 😊 Also why the heck are there 2 Absolutes of the same color? One appears to be FG or AG/HG, but it's strange. They could've pick the white-gold-black colorway for one of them...

Aham, I get it now why they've displayed more than one color for same model for some boots, but I still find it strange that both models of the Absolute are the classic black/red/white, the only difference appearing to be the soleplate. Another strange thing about that display made by adidas was placing the Mania in 2003 when it was clearly used in the 2002 World Cup in Korea & Japan. Anyway thanks for the reply Jay!
@phoenixf786 Жыл бұрын
It would be nice if Adidas made an AG (real) version like Nike does, with shorter, more conical studs for artificial grass pitches. In recent years they have made MG-AGs that were the same as the FG version and there was often a risk of injury.

Interesting video, thanks! it seems like there is a crazy scientist running Adidas labs. They have a good model and then drop it to make a terrible one. There is no continuity or institutional knowledge, and you would expect some gradual improvement, but they don't exist. Every model is its own mystery and has its own built-in "bugs." They do seem to be less impressive compared to models of 10 or more years ago.

This only tells part of the story. They offered different boots below a UK 6 or US 7 or... I don't know what that is in European 40 maybe. But they in certain countries had different tax rates. So it was a different boot. I had the what was the equivalent to the Touch but the kids offering. It was then I realised it was a load of rubbish. My preds made a squeaking sound in the wet. The following became so subtle it was no more than stitching and brands like Nike offered their version. Obviously Adidas were paying out that they didn't want, so killed it off but brought it back. There was even a game Adidas Predator Soccer... It was bad but that's how strong it was. Puma King was probably second at the time but the white fold over tongues were as cool as the red as a kid back then. I remember when Roberto Carlos took that famous freekick against France. I also remember, even adults (through training etc) thinking he managed to do it because he was wearing predators - he was of course wearing Umbro's and switched to Nike when they signed Barsil. Beckham.. do you remember when he was signed with Clarks? Cica Blades? Blades were essentially what I think Adidas called Traxion but a different design to not break patent laws. Ignoring all the stories that Messi et al wore different leather boots, of course we're going to buy these and it's part of the fun. But the very, very best players in history didn't wear them.
