Adidas Predator Power Swerve Football Boots
It’s been kicking around since 1994, that’s when adidas introduced the first Predator. Now, 14 years, and 9 editions later, adidas has revealed two new editions to the Predator PowerSwerve family.
Predator Power Swerve
The Predator football boots are famed for power, swerve and control, so think of the two new football boots as ‘souped-up’ Predators, with a different performance attribute amplified in each one.
Predator ‘POWER’ Swerve
It features an extra 10 grams of additional tungsten powder in the insole.It is claimed that with an extra 10g of Tungsten powder in the Power Pulse the "user" would feel and extra bang in power.
Predator Power ‘SWERVE’
It features additional liquid rubber on the medial vamp. Just follow through the ball and let the liquid rubber ribs take care of the curve.
Highlights
The new football boots feature Predator SMART foam on the strike zone to give extra power, swerve and control. In testing the football boot was found to give 3% more force and 8% more swerve than its predecessor.
The foam also adapts and changes to suit the way you kick the ball so you get maximum velocity, or shock adsorption, depending on your needs.
The dynamic Power Pulse insole features 40g of ‘Tungsten’ powder - which shifts and spreads weight in the sole to where you need it, behind the exact place of impact with the ball to get total weight transfer.
Each football boot comes with two insoles - a ‘power’ and a ‘lightweight’ version - so a simple swap allows you to customise your game.
Current to players that are wearing this boots includes,Steven Gerrard, David Beckham, Anderson, Michael Ballack, Micah Richards and Dirk Kuyt.
Boy would i love to get my hands on a pair of these boots from Adidas.
