Boasting an innovative HybridTouch upper with targeted Strikeskin grip elements and a dynamic ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate, these boots deliver an exceptional feel for the ball and agile traction on firm ground.

The adidas Predator Elite Laceless FG boots are engineered to elevate your game, particularly in attacking and playmaking roles where precision and control are paramount. On the pitch, the Strikeskin grip elements provide tangible benefits when striking the ball; you'll notice a more consistent connection, allowing for greater accuracy in shots and passes, and the ability to add significant swerve to your set pieces or long-range efforts.
The HybridTouch upper combined with the enhanced touch grooves allows for superior ball manipulation. Dribbling feels more intuitive, and receiving passes, even at high speeds, is noticeably smoother, granting you better command of the ball in tight spaces. This makes them ideal for midfielders and forwards who need to control the tempo and execute decisive plays.
The ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate shines on firm, natural grass surfaces. Its multi-directional traction ensures you maintain stability and grip during explosive sprints, sharp turns, and sudden changes of direction, crucial for beating defenders or getting into prime scoring positions. The laceless closure provides a clean striking surface, ensuring no laces interfere with your connection to the ball, which can lead to more powerful and accurate shots. The Primeknit collar adapts to your ankle, offering a supportive feel that helps maintain stability throughout a match. While the cosmetic lacquer on the soleplate might wear off over time, this is purely aesthetic and does not diminish the boot's performance or durability.
Getting your Predator Elite Laceless FG boots on is straightforward, though it may take a few attempts to find your ideal method. The Primeknit collar is designed to be snug. Gently pull the collar open and slide your foot in. Ensure your heel is properly seated in the heel counter for a secure fit. Since there are no laces, the fit relies on the boot's engineered upper and collar.
These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces. This means they are best suited for natural grass pitches that are firm or slightly damp. Using them on artificial turf (AG) or very hard/dry ground may lead to premature wear of the studs and is not recommended for optimal performance or durability. They are a unisex adult design.
To ensure your adidas Predator Elite Laceless FG boots remain in top condition and perform effectively:
Cleaning: After each use, remove loose dirt and grass with a soft brush or damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a mild soap solution and rinse thoroughly. Do not machine wash or use harsh detergents.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators) as this can damage the materials and cause cracking or shrinking.
Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with boot trees or crumpled newspaper inside to help maintain their shape.
Soleplate Lacquer: As mentioned, the lacquer finish on the bottom of the soleplate is cosmetic and may wear off during play. This is a normal part of product usage and will not affect the performance or integrity of the boot.
Material: The HybridTouch upper is a synthetic material, making it relatively easy to clean and maintain compared to natural leather.
