Following up on our earlier posts, we are back with the first look at the upcoming 'Cold Mode' Adidas Predator 18 football boots. Part of a collection geared towards the adverse weather of the colder months, the Adidas Predator Cold Mode soccer cleats introduce a Primaloft-powered insulation layer. They are all but confirmed to the last-ever Predator 18 release ahead of the debut of the next-gen Predator 19 in December.
Adidas Predator 18+ Cold Mode - Dark Blue / White / Pink
This image shows the Adidas Predator 18+ soccer boot from the Cold Mode pack.
Adidas has come up with one of the best looks ever for the Predator 18 here. Predominantly dark blue, the main part of the upper is slightly shimmery, as opposed to the matte collar, which is also a bit darker - as are the 3 Stripes and the taping between the covered and uncovered Primeknit.
A bit of pink is present on the heel of the Adidas Predator 18 'Cold Mode' cleats, whist the sole plate is part white, park dark blue. The white parts feature a very soft color splatter effect to round things off in style.
Apart from the Primaloft, the Adidas Predator Cold Mode football boots have all the same features as the previously dropped editions.

Nike Confirms Release of Gold Mercurial CR7 2026 World Cup Boots
Nike has officially confirmed the upcoming release of the highly anticipated, special-edition signature boot for Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the American sportswear giant will launch a spectacular all-gold Mercurial specifically designed for the Portuguese superstar. This exclusive release is scheduled to drop just before Portugal kicks off their opening group-stage match.
The decision to equip the forward in a striking all-gold colorway is a deliberate and symbolic tribute by the brand's design team. Speaking on the upcoming launch to The Athletic, Nike representative Odinga Nimako, a senior figure at Nike’s global football footwear team, explained the specific reasoning behind the glamorous aesthetic. "The fact that Ronaldo is playing his sixth World Cup, we wanted to celebrate the legacy he has set and the way he continues to add to his legacy," Nimako stated. "And there is no better color than gold to help do that."
It remains to be see if Cristiano Ronaldo will wear the golden boots in a match - we expect him to wear them in training only.
France National Team Wear First-Ever Club Kits in Pre-World Cup Tradition
Before their opening match of the 2026 World Cup, the France national team has continued a pre-tournament tradition by posing for a squad photo wearing the kits of their first-ever clubs. The image, which recently gained widespread attention on social media, serves as a tribute to the players' grassroots origins before they compete on the international stage.
The photo features the squad donning the jerseys of the local and amateur teams where their football journeys began. Kylian Mbappé and William Saliba are both seen representing AS Bondy, while Ibrahima Konaté wears the colors of Paris FC. Other notable inclusions are Jules Koundé in Fraternelle de Landiras, Aurélien Tchouaméni in JS D'Artigues, Dayot Upamecano in VS Angers, Ousmane Dembélé in ALM Evreux, Jean-Philippe Mateta in Sevran, and the Hernández brothers in CF Rayo Majadahonda gear.
This tradition highlights the diverse beginnings of the squad and provides valuable recognition for the youth and amateur clubs that helped develop the current generation of French national team players.
