As part 5 of the Top Football Boots of the World Cup series, here is the Adidas +Predator Absolute.This is German football boot manufacturers Adidas’s flagship football boot for the World Cup. It is also used by more professionals in the competition than any other Adidas boot. The Adidas +Predator Absolute is the eighth generation Predator football boot. It includes revolutionary exchangeable PowerPulse technology, meaning the player can decide between a light boot or a powerful boot.
Performance: As with many of the top end boots now, the versatile sockliner gives the player a choice between speed with the light option or power with the PowerPulse socliner. This Predator has improved the ’swervability’ of your strike with an enhanced region on the side of the boot.
Comfort: Made with Kangaroo leather, these boots feel very comforatble. The leather is very thin, yet feels very flexible and literally fits like a glove.
Players: Beckham, Vieira, Lampard, Zidane, Gerrard to name but a few, more players here.
Price: £130
Verdict: Simply put, a class football boot.

Gary Neville’s chosen boot: get in! Love that man, football’s answer to Paul Weller Out Of The Jam.

The best preds were the mania’s these boots are poor. Best adidas ones are the f50’s, but lets all talk vapors

Even though France did not win the World Cup you should still put out Zizous’ Gold boots, because they are really great and I would love you. I love Zidane. The World Cup last a month (once every four years) but Zinedine Zidane lasts forever. …. so make his boots public.

Vapours > Predators and F50’s.
August 11th, 2006 at 11:08 pm
They look relay heavy. Roberto Carlos probably cant even get them off the ground.

Put Zidane Gold Predators for sale and Adidas would make millions. I would purchase them!
October 2nd, 2006 at 6:11 pm
Adidas F50 Tunit football boots if they make them cheaper i’d buy them.
October 11th, 2006 at 5:27 pm
are they better than the nike air legends ???
October 21st, 2006 at 8:34 pm
Yeah, I think they are better than the Nike Legends Matt.
November 1st, 2006 at 9:14 pm
So do i chris , thats why im buying some whats the best colour ???
November 3rd, 2006 at 6:53 pm
I have the black Adidas tunit football boots,?they’re the business, but want to get myself the green ones… Slick or what? And if those all gold Zidane Predator football boots come out, i’ll be first to buy them.

Forget the Adidas TUNiTs the Adidas Predators, the Nike Air Legend football boots are the best out at the moment, that’s why they are worn by the best players.
November 12th, 2006 at 2:10 am
My brother has these football boots and I tried them. They were really poor. The old Adidas f50’s were far better than the new ones. The best adidas football boots are the Copa Mundial. Maybe old, but are perfect.
December 31st, 2006 at 1:59 pm
Puma v1-06 are well better!
December 31st, 2006 at 2:00 pm
They’re the best football boots at the moment Eto’o has them, so they must be good.
January 25th, 2007 at 6:32 pm
I have f50 tunits.
They’re great but the only problem is they are wearing out and i’ve only had them half a season, i’m now buying a pair of Predator Absoloutes.
I was going to buy Vapors but i’ve had two pairs and suffered a broken foot each time. They offer no protection for a centre midfielder.
January 26th, 2007 at 2:20 pm
i think that the best boots are my black and orange adidas sambanovas
January 26th, 2007 at 2:21 pm
i also think that my sample old f50s are great the colours are black on the sides and yellow on the sides
March 20th, 2007 at 8:31 pm
Predator Absolutes are amazing! I think that the best colour is black, red and white because they look beastie!
March 20th, 2007 at 8:41 pm
I shoot with my right foot and I want power. However I never shoot with my left. So with my Predators should I have power pulse on one foot and not on the other or isn’t that a good idea?
April 21st, 2007 at 12:49 pm
Hi ,
I love to use Adidas soccer shoes cause they are full of power and speed. Morten Gamst Pendersen of Blackburn Rovers I will want to know if he has a sponsorship from Adidas soccer shoes?
April 22nd, 2007 at 2:21 pm
Hi there , I can confirm that Morten Gamst Pedersen is sponsored by Adidas……..
May 28th, 2007 at 9:13 pm
You Love Gary Neville??!!
I think i speak for everyone when i say that he is simply a dirty little runt (EDIT).
June 2nd, 2007 at 10:44 pm
I agree I think he is too old and a waste of space!!!
June 5th, 2007 at 3:01 pm
These boots are the best boots I ever had. There so comfortable. they arent heavy.there very light (let me talk for my self about the weight). I play in the youth of altay turkey. you don’t fell anything when you shoot with them. The swervability is perfect.great.i got already the second one because there very nice. I got the second ones after 1 year. They don’t we bad after 4-5 months.unless you use them as garbage. Thats it.
You should by them.As a recommendation

I’ve worn five pairs of predators over the years and i’m not thinking of changing now. What colour should i get them in?
June 8th, 2007 at 4:36 pm
I have a pair of f50s -
They are great to wear, feel like slippers, but the only thing wrong with them is they don’t last very long, they’re to easy to rip with a pair of studs I know coz i hurt my metatarsals just before the end of the season and had 2 stud holes in my football boot.
June 11th, 2007 at 3:57 pm
i think that adidas predator are brilliant .
perhaps the best boots ever.
they’ve been produced in 1994 and they still till now from the best boots ever

I just tried on a pair of Predators today and I have to say that they weren’t comfortable at all. The insole was really hard and the k-leather wasn’t all that soft. I’m sure in time they would break in, but for me I’m going with the Puma v-Konstrukts I also tried on. Now there’s a comfortable boot…
June 16th, 2007 at 9:41 pm
I have size 10 feet and i once was going to buy a pair of adidas pulse boots when they were out but they were too small in width does that happen with the current Predator Absolute boots my foot width is very wide does anyone have the same problem?. If this is a problem what is a good pair of boots which would fit a wide foot person?
June 21st, 2007 at 7:09 pm
the new black and wite gerrard boots are the best boots out of predator
July 30th, 2007 at 5:44 am
the predators are the best thats why zidane, ballack, lampard, gerrard etc. wear them. the new black and white champions league ones are the best
September 13th, 2007 at 12:30 pm
nup i think best boot has to be puma kings…they are a great boot and i would buy them more then once =]…on the other hand nomis are also a really nice boot
September 26th, 2007 at 10:48 pm
these are brilliant!i have a pair of black silver and yellow predators.they are really comfy and u can hit unreal frees.the problems with them though is the powerpulse is kind of a gimmick and also if you have wide feet youll have to break them in for a while but still they are brilliant!
October 6th, 2007 at 2:39 am
get the beckams lions great pair
October 29th, 2007 at 8:14 pm
Dude wair the power p’s on both boots man. Who knows when you might need an immediate strike outside the box or a 1 touch finish inside the 18. I mean, do you shoot with your right that much?!
August 17th, 2009 at 11:28 am
adidas boots r sweet i had a pair 4 3 years they r amazing
November 13th, 2009 at 1:23 am
