    Was just wondering now that the Absolutes are out, which predator series do you like the best in terms of looks and comfortability. Mine would be:

    1.Pulse
    2.Mania
    3.Precision
    4.Absolute
    5.Accelerator

    what are yours??

    Mine would be:

    Absolutes
    Manias
    Accellerators
    Pulse
    Precision

    I've worn em' all, aside from the Absolutes. Never really got a chance for a kick around in em'. I'm still trying to find Manias in Black for a decent price...

    Hoping the absolutes will be the best, I'm gonna get them pre-ordered soon I think. Never tried the Predator 1 and 2, has anybody? :confused:

    Absolutes ! and i have tried them. They just feel so much better than pulses comfort wise and touch on the ball plus feel alot lighter then my precisions and accelators.

    1. the adidas Harkes Predator boots. first real boots, loved them. I think I was in 6-7th grade and got them for $60. my parents didn't want to pay that much for cleats, even though they were on sale. little did they know what the future of high school would hold :D
    2. adidas predator precision
    3. adidas predator mania

    getting pulses soon for around $50.


    I love adidas boots, but I have an extreme superstition with them now. Even when I had my first predators, I didn't score many goals(had waay more assists). When I got my first pair of azt90s, I scored a ton more goals, and had about as many assists. I don't go onto the pitch thinking, what brand boots am I wearing today.. but, that's just how it's been for a while. weird.

    What do you guys think is a reasonable price for a slightly used and scuffed pair of red Manias? My mate wants to sell his to me. Off topic, but I need to know. :rolleyes: Sorry, and thanks in advance.

    I seem to think they do. The Absolions I have are wider than my Pulses.

    I bought a sample pair of ebay a couple of months back, the blacked out prototypes they where on here, if u remember back that far. Yeh they do fit more wider than pulses and alot more comfortable. Only problem i had with my samples were the little lines on the front of the boot by the vamps. Started to peel off after a few wears :( but hopefully they solved this problem with the production ones.

    Hey, yeah i bought these for £170 from an ebay auction a couple of months back, i didnt have them long as a wore them for a couple of training sessions and a game and by this point. You see the little lines next to the vamps, these began to peel off so i sent them back for a refund as they cost sooo much and unfortunately i didnt take nemore pictures, just these.

    Hey guys, I didn't want to start a new thread, so here are my questions.

    I can get SG Pulses for about 60 pounds, do u think that is worth it?

    I can get Gun Metal, White Blue Beckham, Black Red White or Silver Beckham.

    What is better? :)
