Adidas just officially unveiled the next-gen Predator Freak 2021 football boots, just minutes after Nike's unveiling of the next-gen 'Dragonfly' Mercurial. The new Predator boots, which are already available to buy, introduce a bold new look as well as a number of updated features including the new 360° Demonskin upper.

Adidas' new Freak Predator boots have an aggressive design. The new 'Black / Team Royal Blue / Solar Yellow / White' adidas PREDATOR Freak.1 boots combine a blue / black upper with striking yellow for the rubber pads and white for the Three Stripes.
The 3 Stripes wrap around the foot in a more dramatic appearance that looks back to Adidas classics such as the 1998 Predator Acceleator and the 2000 Predator Precision.
360° Demonskin upper
A rather big upgrade from the previous gen, the Adidas Predator Freak introduces an enhanced "360° coverage" of the Demonskin upper with its characteristic spikes. According to Adidas, this was done to "enable superior control and increased ball swerve."
"From first wear, I knew adidas had created something special with their DEMONSKIN material. As soon as I touched the ball, I really felt a difference in the way my foot connected. I’m happy my experience with it so far has impacted the new PREDATOR design.” Says Manchester United’s Paul Pogba.
The collar of the new Adidas Predator Freak 2021 cleats is also different, featuring a new split design - allowing for a greater range of movement and making the boots more versatile in terms of different foot shapes.
