Discover the pinnacle of football boot excellence with our adidas Predator Football Boots series at Lovell Soccer. Synonymous with football greatness for decades, the Predator series remains a fan-favourite, now elevated to new heights with the Predator Accuracy range. Crafted using cutting-edge High Definition Grip Technology for unparalleled control, the adidas Predator Accuracy is the choice of champions, offering ultimate precision on the pitch. Given the points mentioned above, it’s obvious that the Predator Freak is the generally better boot than the Edge. Here’s SR4U’s comparison video and a summary of its points: The .3 uses a less premium textile mesh coated with silicone compared to the Primeknit material of the top-end model. The soleplate is also made to be a single plastic piece, designed with the looks of the Controlframe's split stud build. Also the grip element is changed from the Demonskin rubber spikes to Demonscale graphic print. How does the Demonscale differ from the Demonskin? It took me a few wears at practice before I felt comfortable getting them into a game, and I feel like many of you will have a very similar experience. It is just tough to adjust to the laceless style and compression fit, they cause you to cramp and take several wears to loosen up and mould to your foot shape. So, if you can, take your time breaking them in. Really allow them to stretch and open up before pushing them into game action. If there is one boot that visually matches its name to perfection, it has got to be the adidas Predator Freak. Covered in a very unique, aptly named rubber DEMONSKIN pattern, the Freak leaves nothing to the imagination, creating an effect that matches the wildest Predator looks we have seen released in the past.Facetframe might be different in looks, but the actual sensation is the same as the previous generation’s Controlframe split-sole. The triangular stud configuration is a smidge more aggressive and a slight improvement. The Power Facet weighted piece has no observable effect unlike the classic Powerpulse technology. The Demonskin are actual rubber spikes potruding out of the toe box. They are now replaced with a minimally textured print in the Demonscale. How does the .3 feel on feet and which among the laced and laceless .3s is better? The Adidas Predator Freak.3 Turf football boot is designed to give you high performance on artificial turf. It features a mid-cut design for optimal ankle support and stability as well as a lace up closure to keep your foot secure. The high grip lugged rubber outsole provides maximum power and hold in indoor and artificial settings. These shoes have a regular fit and are said to be true to size. Demonscale adidas do have Kid-specific makes for the Predator 20.3 available in FG-specific and MG soleplates. Does the 20.3 have other soleplate versions for muddy pitches, 3G or Turf? As is the case with every Predator release, there are high expectations and a desire for a complete performing power boot. It comes with the territory, and adidas has pulled out all the stops on this latest laceless version. We’ve had them in testing the past few weeks, here is our breakdown on what exactly you can expect from them.

The 20.3 uses a less premium textile mesh coated with silicone compared to the Primeknit material of the top-end model. The soleplate is also made to be a single plastic piece, designed with the looks of the ControlFrame's split stud build. Also the grip element is changed from the Demonskin to Demonscale. How does the Demonscale differ from the Demonskin?Weight – Edge gained weight across the board, from the + down to the .1s, without any additional performance benefit Upper padding causes a distant ball sensation; may be remedied if you go with the laced version rather than the laceless which just has a lot of room around the foot Going to the laced Predator Edge, you get two options: one with the Facefit collar and one with an angled low-cut finish. As expected from any adidas silo, it’s only the laces that make the difference, though the Predator adds a twist by adding a high-cut option for the .1. All in all, as pointed out by Josh of SR4U in the video, the current combination of the Zoneskin, Primeknit, and lacing setup is not that great of a remix. Despite the change from spikes to ribs, the Predator Edge is on par with the grip level set by the Freak and the Mutator and still feels like grabbing the ball literally. You can’t go wrong with the Predator Edge if you are looking for a boot that really does aid your first touch and ball control! Go for your normal boots size as this fit true to size. Width is relatively constant from rear to front and will accomodate even players with slightly wide foot shape. How much does the Predator Freak.3 costs?
