adidas Predator LZ DB Football Boots - Olympic Pink/White/Black
Following their goal-scoring debut performance in the MLS, we can now give you a hands-on look at the new Olympic Pink/White/Blackadidas Predator LZ DB football boots. We're predicting a rather strong reaction, so don't hold back! Let us know what you think online, on Twitter and on Facebook.
From the looks of things, adidas are banking on Becks landing a place in the Team GB Olympic football squad - maybe they know something we don't! The colourway - labelled Olympic Pink - is a perfect match to the campaign colourway used across the London 2012 Olympic Games and the adidas 'Albert' match-ball.
If you're an adidas traditionalist, the idea of a pink Predator might be hard to wrap your head around! It's a far cry from the no-nonsense Black/White/Red editions that made the range so iconic. Beckham's never been shy why it comes to his footwear and it's his second stint in a pink Predator, following his special edition adiPower boots designed to mark the birth of his daughter, Harper.
The Olympic Pink/White/Black colourway goes hand-in-hand with the Beckham brand. Pitching this boot to Steven Gerrard or Xabi Alonso might have been a struggle! But with Beckham expected to lead Team GB's efforts for soccer gold this summer, adidas have gone all-out with a design that is sure to be one of the Olympics most eye-catching boots.
The newly introduced colour fade on the Predator LZ effectively blends the pink and white from the forefoot to heel, with each Lethal Zone and the adidas three stripes being highlighted in black. The colourway goes full circle, being used on both the outsole and the TRAXION™ 2.0 FG studs.
Beckham didn't fancy waiting until the Olympics before getting some playing time in the Predator LZ. The LA Galaxy midfielder recently gave his new pink Preds their first taste of on-pitch action against the Montreal Impact. The former England captain rolled back the years, bending in a stunning 25 yard free-kick in front of a record 60,860 crowd.
After a staggering career spanning almost 20 years, the former Manchester United, Real Madrid and AC Milan midfielder has an unrivalled back catalogue of adidas football boots. The new Olympic Pink/White/Blackadidas Predator LZ DB football boots are the latest in a long line and are sure to cause quite a stir!
The Olympic Pink/White/Blackadidas Predator LZ DB football boots are available to pre-order now ahead of a 16 July release date. Beckham's new boots will hit shelves at the standard Predator LZ price of around £160 GBP / €190 EURO / $220 USD and will only be made available in a FG sole-plate.
