Adidas go back to basics with new all-black Predators

The future of boots is a blast from the past.

FOR SOMETHING THAT is actually quite secondary to performance in reality, fans and players alike love to talk about boots.

Every new design is studied and oogled like a glamour model. So it is interesting that as boots have been getting flashier, Adidas have gone for a more basic design for these Predators and Copa Mondials.

With the black model, there is finally a Predator that Peter Clohessy or Moss Keane could have worn — a boot that could dish out a good shooing but could also be trusted to carry you on the odd break. And with the white, there is finally a bridge between an old school boot and something that Conor Mortimer would have been proud to call his own.

What do you all think? Will those of you who own a pair of Puma Kings finally jump ship to this understated black Predator? Do people prefer the old school look or the more modern style like Ronaldo or Neymar’s?
