    yeah, im unsure about them. They go down the same track as ctrs which can only be good. But thats not what the predator is about. and the pads/predator zones dont look too durable

    They do look alot better in them pics. I take it the black/yellow/red LZ's are the SL version as they have more of a shine to them. The others look like they are a synthetic leather like kangalite? Has anyone heard if that could be the case? I have been a Predator wearer all my life but recently I have found myself buying adipures more due to the fact they do a better job at holding up for a cheaper price and also for the looks. My Adipure SL's have only started to form a hole in the left foot toe last week and I have had them since release. Playing on 3G astro every week. For me the Blackout adipower will be my last pred for a while and the 11pro will be my main boot choice.

    Yeah I agree but on the otherhand they look like the CTR III's but better. I like the white/black colorway

    if they kept the adipower as well as these then they would be on to a winner

    yeah totally agree that they should keep the adipower or at least a proper leather predator. I still think they should have made the LZ's a new silo of boot ranges.

    What boot would you guys say is very similar to the predator mania's? I'm a huge fan of them and they're going for ridic prices (but then again i think they're the best of the predators..)

    If you had to say a modern shoe (that's pretty easily available), what would come close to representing the mania's?

    (i'm pretty sure this has been discussed but can't find it...)

    PowerSwerves were the closest Pred in terms of style and fit; not quite the level of quality though.

    Possibly Mizuno Wave Ignitus. Stitched upper, k-leather forefoot, and the rubber bits has the feel of those from Mania.

    The stitching doesnt look right and it has the adidas originals tag on it, I'd say fake too.

    I'd say fake too but haven't been paying much attention to the boots, siamboots had fake boots on several occasions.

    Apparently they're fake/replica's, potential 2012/13 kit though.

    Fly Emirates signed as a commercial partner, like Turkish Airlines is to Manchester United. They wont be shirt sponsors.

    So are the new Adidas Pro11 K-Leather or Taurus Leather? I got an email from a local soccer shop advertising it as K-Leather.
