With an advanced HybridTouch upper and the innovative ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate, these boots are engineered to help you maximize every scoring chance. While highly effective on firm ground, their specialized design means they are not ideal for artificial turf or soft ground conditions.

The adidas Predator Pro Tongue FG boots are engineered for players who demand precision and control in their game, particularly in attacking roles. On firm, natural grass pitches, the ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate provides aggressive, multidirectional traction, allowing for quick changes of direction, explosive acceleration, and stable planting for shots.
The HybridTouch upper, combined with the Strikeskin grip elements, is where these boots truly shine for offensive play. When striking the ball, the rubber fins create an improved connection, enabling players to generate significant swerve and power, making shots and passes more accurate and challenging for opponents. The pronounced touch grooves enhance the feel of the ball, offering the responsiveness needed for intricate dribbling, close control in tight spaces, and setting up the perfect shot.
The foldover tongue contributes to a clean striking surface and a secure, comfortable fit, reducing distractions during intense play. This design ensures that every touch and shot feels connected and powerful. These boots are suitable for competitive matches and training sessions where firm ground conditions are prevalent, offering the performance needed to make a decisive impact.
Setup:
Lacing: Loosen the laces adequately before putting on the boots. Guide your foot in, ensuring a snug but comfortable fit.
Tongue Adjustment: Pull the foldover tongue into position over the laces. Secure it using the integrated strap if available, ensuring it lies flat and comfortably over the instep.
Tighten Laces: Starting from the bottom, progressively tighten the laces evenly, pulling them firmly but not excessively, to achieve a secure, locked-down feel without pinching.
Knot: Tie a secure knot, such as a double knot, to prevent laces from coming undone during play.
Compatibility:
Playing Surface: These boots are designed exclusively for Firm Ground (FG) pitches, meaning natural, dry to slightly damp grass fields. Using them on artificial turf (AG) or very hard ground can lead to excessive wear on the studs and soleplate, and may void warranty. Using them on soft, muddy ground (SG) will result in insufficient grip.
Player Type: Suitable for adult male and female players across all positions, though their features are particularly beneficial for players focusing on striking, control, and agility.
Care:
Cleaning After Use: After each use, remove loose dirt and mud from the upper and soleplate using a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the materials and cause cracking.
Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using boot trees or stuffing them with newspaper to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
Material Care (HybridTouch): For the synthetic suede-like HybridTouch material, use a specialized cleaning solution for synthetics or a mild soap with water. Gently wipe clean, avoiding saturating the material. Polish is not required.
