adidas Predator 18+ "Lone Hunter"

The first adidas pack of 2018 arrives as the fittingly named "Lone Hunter" collection headlined by a Predator with a rediscovered hunger. The Predator 18+ undergoes a visual transformation to demonstrate the aesthetic versatility of the reimagined silhouette. It's hunting hard and shooting sharp.

Dropping as the first colour update on the Predator 18+ boot, the new "Olive Trace/Orange/Black" combination is carried onto the X 17+ Purespeed and Nemeziz 17+ as the theme runs throughout the "Lone Hunter" pack with a disruptive design that will not feature on the feet of adidas' leading professional players.

The Three Stripes will keep their headline names in the current Skystalker Pack until it's replaced later in the month by the next on-pitch collection. Back to the "Lone Hunter" design, and the Predator 18+ dances with Primeknit pace as adidas showcase the unrestricted possibilities that the knitted upper can offer with pulsating orange patterns across the body of the boot.

The Primeknit material sits under a layer of CONTROLSKIN with a FORGED KNIT integrated midfoot to offer that Predator striking sensation on the ball. More orange detailing becomes visible as the Primeknit across the top of the foot stretches once the Predator 18+ is slipped on – in the same way as the red flashes through on the launch colourway of the same boot.

A PURECUT LACELESS system ensures maximum surface control while an updated CONTROLFRAME combines with a full length BOOST midsole to provide added comfort. Have a skim through our review and some of those official tech titles might begin to mean something.
