Adidas Predator Adipower Blue Yellow FG
New with box
The Upper:
- Adidas used a taurus calf leather upper, which was similar to the previous Predator model
- The newly updated upper on the Adipower was much lighter and sleeker in design
- A new stitching pattern was introduced which created 4 padded ribbed designs near the toe box
- The new rubber element continued with a rubber "shield" like design for maximum swerve
- The new rubber element was much lighter than the previous model and featured a series of smaller hexagons and several grooves throughout
The Sole Plate:
- Adidas made major strides ,getting rid of the clunky Pred X solepate and added a super sleek and lightweight bladed sole plate design
- The new "Powerspine" sole plate was made of a super lightweight plastic
- The sole plate was very similar to the Adizero, but featured bladed studs and a the "spine" near the middle for reinforcement
Notes and Comments:
- The Adipower had some much needed improvements from the previous Pred X
- A million times lighter, way less clunky, and overall just much more functional
- The upper is very soft, and while its not K leather, it provides the same sort of fit and cushiony feel to it
- As for the sole plate, its definitely not a traditional Pred sole plate, but it for sure has to go down as one of the best in terms of performance
