adidas Launches the New Predator 25: A Fusion of Legacy and Innovation

This article is a paid partnership with adidas and contains product links.

adidas is now unveiling the Predator 25, the latest edition of its iconic football boot. Designed as a tribute to the classics while integrating cutting-edge technology, the boot is built for today’s top players – including F.C. Copenhagen stars Pantelis Hatzidiakos and Kevin Diks, who take to the pitch in the new Predator 25.

A Design Rooted in History
The striking red upper is a direct reference to the classic Predator tongue, while the flowing black lines pay homage to the legendary Predator Accelerator from 1998, seamlessly blending with adidas’ iconic three stripes. The design is completed with updated Predator branding on both the tongue and heel.

Engineered for the Highest Level
While the Predator 25 honors its predecessors, it is packed with technical upgrades that give players an edge on the pitch. The new STRIKESKIN upper enhances grip with more and longer rubber elements in the striking zone, improving ball control. At the same time, HYBRIDTOUCH 2.0 ensures a snug, comfortable fit with minimal break-in time.

One of the most sought-after features makes a return: The fold-over tongue is back – now with extra foam padding for added protection and rubber details that optimize ball contact.

The CONTROLFRAME 2.0 outsole, introduced last year, remains a core component, providing maximum traction, acceleration, and rotational freedom thanks to an optimized stud configuration and external heel counter.

Three Versions, One Legacy
The Predator 25 is available in three variations, each tailored to different player preferences:
•    Laced – for those seeking a secure fit and maximum stability.
•    Laceless – for players who prefer a clean striking surface and seamless ball contact.
•    Fold-over tongue – a nostalgic nod to the classics, infused with modern innovation.

Predator 25 is available now in adidas stores, online, and at selected retailers, with prices starting from 399 DKK.

Whether you want to relive the Predator legacy or create your own unforgettable moments on the pitch, the Predator 25 is built for greatness.
