come closer to the release date, everyone will love these boots, and people will buy them. that's how it seems to work.
Saw the spring/summer adidas catalog today and the boots look much better than the pics on this forum... The split sole is virtually unchanged. It's not one solid plastic piece. The boots remind me of the precisions and manias as well. The heel counter is different and the predator elements are a combo of the mania and pulse designs. It has three thin islands that run across the boot like the pulse and three more that run vertically like the mania. The boot also has a tuneable power pulse weight system where you can add or remove weight. I'm sure this will be in the form of exchangeable insoles.....On the whole I like them and I think you too if you like preds. I'll try to borrow the catalog and get some good scans...........
By the way, release date is 12/15/05. Sooner than most people would have guessed. And there was no sign of the f-50 or a similar replacement....I find that strange the f-50 is a popular boot. The absolute will also have a white and gold version and a nearly all red model that has the becks emblem on the tounge. There is also a new boot that looks retro....it looks like the profi with the pulses split sole.........answer to the Nike Legend.....
Well done, mrcreole. Reps for you. So if those pics aren't really like the production models...what are they??
Sorry but Ive recently moved house and my computer isnt working. Could anybody post the pic again for me? I'm posting this from school and am very interested in the new preds. Cheers.
I'll try to borrow the catalog today. I have a friend that owns a soccer store. The pics on this forum are accurate. They are just so fuzzy that it takes away from boot..........
I was right then those boots that Japanese player was wearing a few months back against Germany really were a prototype for the Absoloute. You could clearly see some form of islands accross the boot
They look okay nothing special, they might be growers, like most things when you see them you think wtf then like them, like me with the F50+!
you need to upload it on a server! But you can send me the pics, i will host them and post them here! timo_haeberle@yahoo.de Thanks
Let's just say :O Bit big, but i wanted to show y'all the detail Now we just gotta wait for the new nike's..... Thanks to 'x'
HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO U BEAUTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Awsome find my son, may i say also from the Norwich area! These look much better than the first picture that came out, i love the red and black colourway, definatly going to get them. Can't wait to see them in person and get my hands on them to see what they are like to the touch. Question, how is the tongue going to be held down? I can see an elastic strap on the tongue of the Beckham Preds (must be tucked under the tongue but if u look closely u will c) but the overs look bare. Will it be velco like Precissions? REP POINTS 4 U, U LEGEND!!!!!!!!!
They don't look dat bad actually i like the blue white ones, the leather look nice and soft btw nice find.
HaHa represent East Anglia ^ Well, like you i found this interesting.... If you look close at the tongue on the white/yellow ones, you can see a sort of see an indent where the elastic usually is....so my guess is that they have hidden the elastic under the boot for the pictures....I cant imagine a pred without elastic, even though it's been done beofre with the accelerators, they seemed to have something special with the elastic, and there is no sign of velcro on the white yellow ones.....Even if there isnt, im gonna put my own elastic on them..... Beckhams boots seem to have a bigger tongue on them, dunno whether its just because theyve pulled them out further to show the logo, or wheteher he's got a bigger tongue than the rest! But they are sweet as1
ooooooooooo my ur a legend for postin those pics! wikd post m8. Theyve grown on me unbeleivably now iv got a clear picture. If only we could see what the other side of the boot looks like
