Adidas Predator Precision 2000 Prototypes SG
Quite possibly the "only survivors" of two early stage Predator Precision designs. Read details below. Sold as a mismatched set.
Condition Notes: unused condition, some discoloration on the white shoe throughout the upper
Left Boot:
- A super rare pre production prototype that was likely a later stage concept for the Precision
- The upper is completely unique, using a woven like material, i similar feel to how Primeknit feels today. Imagine that, back in the late 90s
- The stripe placement and heel cup are nearly identical to retail
- The upper uses a plastic/rubber casing for the strike zone, instead of the rubber vamps that were produced. This element is similar in feel to the webbing on the F50+ spider
- The tongue is similar to what was produced but slightly thinner
- The sock liner is super thin and flexible, it offers hardly any support, much thinner than retail
- Sole plate is identical to the Precision SG that was produced, had the number 3 marked, possibly one of the late stage ideas they were considering
- No size tags, accelerator insoles, measured to be around size 9us
- An incredibly rare and never before seen part of Adidas Predator prototyping history
Right Boot:
- A very early stage Precision prototype concept, a few key indicators show this was just an idea and definitely not considered for retail
- Everything is completely different on this boot than what was produced
- The upper uses a super thin leather upper with a strange stitching pattern
- The heel cup is unlike anything ever produced on a Predator
- Sock liner, and upper material are incredibly thin as well, they look like they would only last a few matches if worn
- The tongue was quite different, a large, flappy, rounded tongue that really doesn't stay folded over
- The stripes came up super thick around the outsides, and super thin around the insoles
- The sole plate had some resemblance to the Precision, but used a two piece split plate
- The sole plate, and stripes look like they were sort of an art project. The stitching has imperfection, it isn't done to precision like most of the later stage prototypes are
- It's likely Adidas was experimenting with ideas and concepts to see if any of them stuck
- No size tags, no insoles, estimated size 9us
