Real Madrid & Barcelona Stars Debut Adidas x Y-3 'Beast' Boots Ahead of El Clásico
Ahead of the blockbuster El Clásico matchup, players from Real Madrid and FC Barcelona have taken to the training ground in the newly launched Adidas x Y-3 "Beast" boots pack. Exactly twenty years after Yohji Yamamoto reshaped football aesthetics with the legendary 2006 +F50 Tunit "Beast Pack", the Three Stripes and the Japanese designer have revived the concept across their modern Predator and F50 speed silos to frame Spain's greatest rivalry.
Jude Bellingham led the charge at Valdebebas laced up in the snarling Predator FT Elite 'Tiger', complete with its bold fold-over tongue and vivid yellow, orange, and black brushstroke graphics. In contrast, Madrid teammates Brahim Díaz and Carlos Espí stepped out in the electric blue F50 Hyperfast Elite 'Dragon', which wraps the lightweight speed frame in intricate mythical dragon scales and fierce artwork.
The fierce head-to-head dynamic will play out fully on the pitch during El Clásico, with stars across both sides—including Barcelona sensation Lamine Yamal in the F50 Dragon alongside Pedri and Raphinha in the Predator Tiger—showcasing the footwear on the world stage. Officially released on October 23 in limited quantities, the pack fuses haute couture archival pedigree with modern elite performance tech.
Not Leaving Adidas? Declan Rice Trains in Next-Gen Adidas Predator 2026 Prototype Boots
Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice has been spotted testing a whiteout prototype of the next-generation Adidas Predator 2026 football boots during training. The England international, who has long served as one of the primary ambassadors for the Adidas Copa Pure line, took to the pitch in an unreleased all-white boot featuring a laced setup and a low-cut knit tongue design identical to the configuration favored by club teammate Martin Odegaard.
The sighting is particularly intriguing given recent speculation surrounding Rice's boot sponsorship. The midfielder had previously been seen trialing unbranded whiteout models from rival brands, including the Nike Tiempo and Under Armour Magnetico 6, sparking rumors that he might depart the Three Stripes. However, his active role in testing Adidas's upcoming flagship control boot suggests that negotiations are progressing and that he could remain with the brand, potentially transitioning from the Copa to the Predator silo.
The next-generation Adidas Predator 27 is scheduled to launch in December 2026, lor January 2027. The upcoming generation draws heavy visual inspiration from the iconic 2000 Predator Precision, incorporating modern Nanostrike rubber grip elements, a redesigned Powerspine soleplate structure, and an engineered Primeknit upper across laced, laceless, and fold-over tongue variants.
