Adidas adipower Predator SL: PART 1


Adidas adipower Predator SL REVIEW: PART 1


The Good: The SL version of the predator which is this year’s hottest boot is brought to you by adidas as a limited edition special boot. The SL version is even lighter than its predecessor and comes with a synthetic upper to further decrease the overall weight of the boot.

The Bad: The boot does not have the Predator technology and even though it is lighter than the regular predator without the technology this boot is not a power boot but rather a F50 with the Predator NAME.

The Bottom line: The boot is an investment at $250.00 and without the Predator technology/element as a consumer I question the value/point of the boot. Rather then focus on the weight, I would have liked adidas to make the predator in a synthetic version to satisfy a majority of the consumers needs/wants but by removing the predator element I think it devalues the boot and what it is made for.
