'Deadly Strike' Adidas Predator 18.1 Boots Released

Adidas today launched a fresh colorway for the Predator 18 boots as part of the Deadly Strike collection.

The Adidas Predator 18 replaced the Adidas Ace with the last Adidas collection of 2017, which was launched in early December.

This image shows the Adidas Predator 18 in the blue and turquoise colorway.

Part of the Deadly Strike pack, these new Adidas Predator 2018 boots are predominantly blue with white 3 Stripes on the outside and a plain inside. A graphic print covers the entirety of the upper of the blue and turquoise Adidas Predator 18 soccer cleats, although it's more visible in the collar part, which is not covered by an extra layer of synthetic.

Tech-wise, the Adidas Predator 18 cleats as expected don't stray to far from the Ace's winning formula. They have a one-piece upper construction with a heightened collar. A subtle ribbed structure is present at the front of Adidas Predator 18, while the the heel and sides around the back are reinforced.

The sole plate includes studs with a diamond-shaped base. This makes the sole plate of the Adidas Predator 18.1 boots look a lot more aggressive than the one of the Ace 17.
