The adidas Predator Elite Soft Ground Football Boots are engineered to maximize performance for junior players on natural, soft ground pitches. The HybridTouch 2.0 upper provides a responsive and cushioned feel, allowing for a refined touch on the ball. When combined with the strategically placed Strikeskin rubber fins, players gain exceptional grip, translating into greater accuracy for passes, shots with swerve, and improved overall ball control in all conditions. This directly supports the 'score from anywhere' mindset central to the Predator range.
The ControlFrame 2.0 outsole is the foundation for agility and stability. Its specialized stud configuration ensures aggressive traction, preventing slippage and allowing for explosive acceleration and sharp changes in direction crucial for outmaneuvering opponents on soft surfaces. The external heel counter further aids in lockdown, ensuring the foot remains secure within the boot during intense match play or training sessions.
The PRIMEKNIT collar provides a snug, adaptive fit around the ankle, enhancing the feeling of unity between foot and boot. This 'sock-like' comfort minimizes distractions and contributes to the overall stability needed for fast-paced, high-pressure situations. As the lightest Predator to date, these boots support a dynamic and attacking style of play, helping young athletes convert pressure into focus and deliver decisive moments on the pitch. These boots are specifically designed for juniors and cater to the physical demands of younger players.
Lacing: Ensure the boots are laced securely to provide a snug and supportive fit. The lace closure allows for personalized tension across the foot.
Initial Wear: It's recommended to break in the boots during a few lighter training sessions before competitive matches to adapt to their fit and feel.
Surface: These boots are strictly designed for soft ground (SG) surfaces. This includes natural grass pitches that are wet or muddy, requiring longer, removable studs for optimal traction.
Age Group: Specifically sized and designed for Juniors.
Sizing: Refer to the size charts for UK junior sizing to ensure the correct fit (e.g., Size 5 UK for this model).
Cleaning: After each use, especially on muddy pitches, wipe the boots clean with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
Drying: Allow boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight) as this can damage the materials.
Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using boot trees or stuffing with newspaper can help maintain their shape.
Lacquer Finish: Note that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the sole may wear off during play. This is a cosmetic effect and will not affect the performance or durability of the product.
