Fashion and style move as quickly as the feet of pacey wingers, so creating a legacy is a near impossible task. But not impossible. Take the Puma King\u2019s of Diego Maradona, the Nike Total 90\u2019s of Wayne Rooney and the iconic Adidas Predator boots made famous by David Beckham, Zinedine Zidane and Alessandro Del Piero to name a few illustrious names.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-9292\" src=\"https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Well, if it isn\u2019t broke, do not try to fix it. After three decades and years of tweaks and mild revolutions Adidas has gone right back to how it started with the Predator brand of football boot to launch the Adidas Predator 24 this week. There are only a handful of football boots that last the test of time but generations of footballers young and old will recognise the Predator name and conjure its image in their minds and hearts.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-9293\" src=\"https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/3-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/3-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/3-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/3-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/3-1025x1536.jpg 1025w, https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/3.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The new Adidas Predator 24 combines the looks of the original Predators with the lightweight technology of today\u2019s modern boots but also weaves in the classic design of the originals with the symbolic tongue strap. The original colourway has been given a 2024 revamp with new highlighter yellow accents dotted throughout. It&#8217;s the lightest boot in the Predator range to date, with grippy rubber and extra cushioning to ensure you don&#8217;t feel like you&#8217;re just wearing socks. The Predator 24 comes in laced and laceless versions too, but in all honesty: it is not a Predator boot unless is has that archetypal, overwhelmingly nostalgic tongue.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/5.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-9295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/5-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/5-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/5-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/5-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/5-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.elysium-uk.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/5.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As build up to the official launch neared, man-of-the-moment Jude Bellingham sported a pair of limited edition Predator 30 boots for Real Madrid, putting in the sort of performance Adidas would have dreamed about when it handed over a pair of the burgundy beauties as Bellingham debuted the pair towards the end of 2023, symbolising the greats of Beckham, Zidane et al to have worn the white of Real Madrid.<\/p>\n<p>RRP \u00a3230.
