adidas Predator Freak .3 Firm Ground Soccer Shoe Mens

Product Information

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. Upper – Freak’s Primeknit may not be a standout in comfort, but it still moves and wraps around the foot decently; again the Edge’s Primeknit, perhaps due to the Zoneskin, is just plain stiff 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?

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.As a Predator release, they match the DNA you expect from the silo, maybe more so than other previous releases because of how aggressive they are. But, I get the get feeling that adidas are trying a little too hard, adding elements just to create more of a WOW factor. The collar is a little challenging to get into, and the added DEMONSKIN seems a little over the top. So, for me, the low cut version that is trimmed down seems like a much more “sensible” boot option. Retail Details

Highlight: The latest generation of Predator, featuring updated rubber DEMONSKIN across the upper – true Predator DNA. 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 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

Options and Pricing – Just on price alone, the Predator Freak is the better buy given their huge discounts today 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 .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?
