adidas Predator LZ SL Football Boots - Black/Pink/Iron - Football Boots

Perhaps the array of adidas Winter 12/13 colours aren't quite to your taste, so to cater for fans of the more sober look adidas have designed these slick Black/Pink/Iron editions of the Predator LZ SL range.

This colour update for the Super-Light Predator LZ is in stark contrast to the Silver/Green/Black version released at the same time. Quite literally, if you invert the Pink colour it comes out as the polar opposite Green as on the alternative colourway.






But under the fine layer of paint which divides so many opinions, is a football boot designed to deliver elite performance through a combination of technology, engineering and materials. The modern Predator LZ might look space-age sat next to it's counterpart from 10 years ago, but the modern Pred now boasts more than just power and swerve in it's repertoire.





Weighing 205g, the adidas Predator LZ SL is adidas' lightest ever Predator - 20g lighter than the Predator LZ and 6g lighter than last seasons Predator SL. And replacing the HybridTouch upper material used on the standard edition, the boot is constructed using an adizero-inspired single layer synthetic SprintSkin upper for super lightness. 





As for the five lethal zones, it's business as usual on the tech front. The upper features five zones of technology designed to master all aspects of your game. Each zone was the result of rigorous player testing. 

To further reduce weight, the boots come with an ultra light insole with an additional pair of comfort insoles. Completing the super-light upper is the same TRAXION®2.0 FG stud configuration which provides maximum grip and acceleration on firm ground pitches.





The SprintFrame outsole, which balances lightweight construction and stability, remains the outsole of choice for the adidas Predator LZ SL. The SprintFrame was a game-changer when it was first introduced and provides maximum grip and optimum pressure distribution on firm or soft ground.






If you want to own a pair of the Black/Pink/Iron adidas Predator LZ SL football boots, expect to pay around £220 GBP / $250 USD / €265 EURO. Only available from limited stockists, the boots have a pre-order date of November 20 and a release date of December 1st.
