Adidas Predator X White Blue CL FG
New without box - slight yellowing near the stripes
The Upper:
- Released in 2010, the Predator X followed one of the most famous Predator lines, the Powerswerve. This was the first Predator model not to feature the iconic Predator Tongue
- The upper featured a taurus leather upper, instead of a Kangaroo Leather upper like the previous lines.
- The new rubber Predator element featured a dimpled softer plastic like material that looks like little suction cups to help with curve and power
The Sole Plate:
- A 1-piece, hard plastic sole plate was used, that was slightly different than the previous 2-piece Powerswerve soleplate
- The PowerSpine technology ensures for a very durable soleplate
- The stud configuration wasn't all that much different, featuring a similar bladed pattern to the previous model and very similar to the Adipure
Notes and Comments:
- While Adidas faced a bit of backlash from this model, these boots were definitely built to last
- The Predator X isn't the lightest of designs, but it does provide an overall structurally sound boot that never had any durability issues
