Football Boots > adidas Predator Kinetic SL Football Boots - Black/Blue




The new adidas Predator Kinetic SL football boots have arrived! After months of anticipation, they have become one of the hottest boot releases of 2011 and now SoccerBible can officially lift the lid on adidas' new super-light power boot! Stage two of the adidas Predator revolution has begun.

SoccerBible is your only online destination for exclusive access to the new adidas Predator Kinetic SL football boots! Destined to become one of the most talked about soccer shoes in the world, take a look and have your say with the SoccerBible community online, on Twitter and on Facebook.






The adiPower broke Predator boundaries, becoming the lightest ever Predator football boot. Just months after their release, adidas have supercharged their new power boot, combining ultimate speed with ultimate power. The weight of adidas' new Predator Kinetic SL has drastically been reduced even further.  





The new adidas Predator Kinetic SL arrive at an impressive 211g (24g lighter than the adiPower, 54g lighter than the Laser III Elite and just 1g heavier than the Superfly III). The lightness of the Predator SL, combined with the traditional power of the adidas Predator, is going to make the Predator Kinetic SL one of the must have football boots of 2011 - never mind the fact that they look seriously cool!





The Predator Zone has been modified to meet the light-weight demands of the new adidas Predator Kinetic SL football boots. In comparison to the aggressively structured silicon rubber Predator Element of the adiPower, the synthetic Kinetic SL Predator Zone claims to offer similar performance attributes but will surely provide a different ball feel.  





Beneath the super-light SPRINTSKIN upper, the same sprint frame out-sole featuring adidas' famous PowerSpine technology is used in the Predator Kinetic SL. Allowing additional energy transfer directly from the foot into the ball, this is where the Kinetic SL merges speed with power.  






Equipped with a space-age like design, the adidas Predator Kinetic SL soccer shoes are designed with adidas' revolutionary SPRINTSKIN upper material which helps drastically reduce weight whilst fully adapting to the shape of your foot. First introduced in the adiZero, this popular technology has helped shape future designs of super-light adidas football boots.  





As much as the new Predator Kinetic SL has been designed with lightweight speed in mind, the Predator PowerSpine ensures that every last ounce of shot power from the player can still be achieved. Comfort is also provided through the PowerSpine flexgrooves that allow comfortable running movements by keeping the element highly flexible in the right direction.






The new adidas Predator Kinetic SL aims to offer the ultimate in both power and speed. Weighing just 211g, the new Predator SL has undoubtedly made it's mark in the speed performance category.  

As everyone would expect, adidas have slapped a higher price tag on their new Predator Kinetic SL soccer shoes. They are available to pre-order from today but will set you back around £210 GBP / $300 USD / €235 EURO.


Now you've had your SoccerBible first-look at the new adidas Predator Kinetic SL football boots, let us know what you think. Share your thoughts with the SoccerBible community online, on Twitter and on Facebook

Hopefully i can get these boots for about $225 with all my discounts!  Defiantly getting these bad boys!  I have the Adipower White Blue Eletric, they are outstanding i just prefer synthetics ill take some weight reduction!

viva said:

I have to agree with Kevman... the SL release is absolutely pointless.

Adidas came out with the 225g Beckham synthetic Adipowers, and those have the full package, not some "absolion-esque" predator shot element as with the SL.

$100 more for a weight deduction of 14g?

Not to mention, the soleplate and its materials are EXACTLY the same as the normal models.

Disappointing, but I imagine it will sell well.

good looking  and  probably an awesome boot,  But not spending $300 for it when I can have a light as feather  adipower boot already and its  only like $180  AND ITS LEATHER!  rather than these synthetics.

The predator element looks cheap, and it's almost the same weight as the beckham synthetic normal versions. Yet $120 more.

I think they're mostly pointless, but they look cool

tott-n-hamspurs said:

Impressive. very impressive. I consider the adipowers incredibly light for a predator as it is. However, the Predator element doesn't have as big of a role as the adipower, so why not just get adizeros.

But impressive.

June 26, 2011 2:20 AM
 

I Messi I said:

What is the point, might aswell but the adizero it's basically the same just doesn't look like the predator it's cheaper and it's lighter... pointless bringing this boot out I would love to know how the AdiPure SL is leather and is 200g and this is synthetic and is 211g what the hell?

June 26, 2011 2:23 AM
 

Adidas_forever said:

WoW coz 24g really makes a difference

GUNBOII said:

@Mess I

You don't get it don't you? Adidas has put all their effort in to create one of the most wanted football boots in the history. Big players make changes from adizero's, T90's, adiPure's to this. It's synthetic, and it weighs 211g, and the adiPure SL weighs 200g although it's leather, but does the adiPure SL gives much power than this? I'm sure the PowerSpine for the adipower SL weighs 11g ;)

Its gonna be just like the AdiPure SL when it came out: everyone thought thats it whas a HUGE succes, but after two weeks it whas forgotten and their was no pro to find in the boot, im gonna think that the EXACT same thing is going to happen whit this one

My advice for adidas, dont change what you do. just because Nike makes their boots a lil bit lighter and 200 dollars more doesnt mean you have to. these , the Primes  and the adipure SL's were a waste of time. I like their boots just the way they are

June 26, 2011 3:31 AM

These look cheap and stupid. Sorry Adidas, you failed this time.

June 26, 2011 4:02 AM
 

weenerman said:

waste of money. Knocking off 20 grams and having a worse touch. That's worth 100 dollars extra. Adidas, you need to put some thought into the boot if you wanna make them extra money.

rizzla rizzla rizzla said:

im wit Kevman and viva on this. Wats the point in the sl's the pred is supposed to be a hefty animal of a boot and the kinects present themselves along those lines and now they bring out these things to compete wit a superfly and the elite f50. Thats not Wat the predator is all about and how much are these things going to cost. The kinects are already up in the high hundreds. 250 maybe 300 for a pred! Will you go away outa dat!

June 26, 2011 4:51 AM

Madridmanfan792 said:

They look cheap, they might look a little better if they were all black and not look like cheap carbon on them. These are stupid! They predator element looks like the fins on the cheap lasers...so basically no power element. I like the adi peer and want a pair but what's the point in these? This is not a good reply for Nike's elite models. These sole plates are cheap.

rally4THEcure said:

They're too focused on weight, I guarantee they shaved off the element to keep the weight down. If they kept the original element, it wouldn't be as light, and that's all they care about.

I don't see how people are complaining, you can still buy the normal adipowers. These are just for people who want them a bit lighter and you can say all you like about the price but people buy superflys at £275 and these are just as light with some tech to help you shoot a lil better

let me correct that. nor rubber vamps! predators are becoming strange boots. when the adipower arrived, they were more against CTRs than T90s... now these? isn't the regular adipower a speed boot enough? i wish adidas returned to preds with big rubber vamps.

June 26, 2011 12:24 PM

errr...

well nike should do something

June 26, 2011 12:26 PM
 

Panayiotis11 said:

very attractive design. Surely the boot looks better than the leather adiPower and many other boots also. In terms of quality and performance probably leathers are better (leather always are better).

Don't be against adidas and his idea telling that these are not preds. First of all adidas did not force you to buy this type, it gave to consumers another choice that i think it will have many sales and many pros will wear them. If you think that these are not another version of modern preds then buy the other ones and shhhh :P

This "arms race" between adidas and nike is getting really annoying now. The adipower was fine the way it was. As was the adiPURE IV.

June 26, 2011 1:21 PM
 

eddi3f said:

i don't think that should no longer be classed as a predator,.. adidas are just making new versions of f50's and calling it the "predator" because of how successfully the actual f50's are...

but still these boots are amazing!

I just got the Adipower white/blue/electric and they are great.  The reason the are great is because they are light and have excellent touch due to the soft taurus leather.   I wouldn't want these even if they were cheaper.  They do look nice though.

June 27, 2011 12:07 AM
 

DJG6 said:

@johnnyx1352

I prefer F50 leather.  they are barely lighter and much cheaper.  But if you have the money and u r a striker get the primes.  But if u r a defender DO NOT get the primes.  If you get stepped on it will feel like u r getting stepped on by a cleat and u are not weraing shoes

June 27, 2011 12:47 AM
 

el Guapo said:

Johnny,  I was lucky enough to try the f50 leather, adipures and the adipowers.  F50s are obviously very light.  Good if you are a skill player but almost no protection in the boot.  Adipures were a good all around boot, but a bit narrow for my wider feet.  I currently use the Adipower preds;  very light for predators, soft leather (no break-in)  wide enough for my feet, so they are very comfortable and still feel like a power boot.  Also, they are more protective than the f50s and simliar to the adipures.  For me the adipower is the choice, but you should try them all on and think about what style game you play.  Good luck!

Very nice design and color, I love them. One thing though, adidas totally messed up here. Absolute mess in model organization. This is like releasing Nike Total 360's SL Vapors, if these are the predators, then why make them lighter?? Aren't predators the power, heavy, protective boot? Leave the "Light" and "Fast" boot to the F50 lines, period.

@GUNBOI: No I believe YOU dont get it.....These may look cool,awesome or tron-esque rite now,wen brand new....Bt once you use it in the field of play,wth all the tough tackling n burst of running,mud or even on artificial turf,the mojo will be gone,scratches on the "powerspine",the PLASTIC upper will look ugly and sooner or later,times is up,you gotta get a new boot and Adidas becomes 220 bucks or so richer....Btw,these are no longer 'Power' boots as the upper is drastically changed.

djaws13 said:

@johnny : really depends on what sorta player u are. I like to run n use my speed so im definitely liking my f50 leather. I hv both f50 leather n adipower n personally da f50 is my boot hands down. Plus i hv wide feet n da f50 is amazingly roomy. Bottom line is ur only as good as how comfortable u are in ur boots ;)

As a few people have said, first thing I thought was "Cool, Tron has got himself some new boots to play footy with!" I know they're supposed to be a bit spaceage maybe to promote the modern touches in the tech, but I'm not loving the colours design. Maybe a new colourway will improve it?

What is the release date of this awesome boot?

Paying 300 USD for these is like paying 350 just for the Elite version. People need to realize that super light boots will do nothing for you other than making you think you are faster which might MIGHT  enhance your performance a little. Either way the effects will be minimal. When looking for a boot you should look for something that is comfortable and stylish. However these speed boots could be the thing for you. It all depends on the person.

@viva i agree. The panel looks like a lower level boot. Seems like youre paying more for less. I love adidas! but this is a rip off. Not really Preds

@all the haters out there...  Most sites dont no sell the boots at retail like prodirect does... As for protection, having a heavy boot and a little bit thicker leather isnt going to protect you that more from someone steping on you...  Its going to hurt reguardless...  If you havnt worn the Adipreds you cant really comment on the predator element.  Having had 2 pairs of the powerswerve, i can say hands down this boot is already way better than powerswerve.  Syntheics are just going to give you a different feel.  Having played in K leather, Calf leather, Taurus leather, full grain leather.  You can hardly telll the different in touch and response.  Then again you do not have to buy this boot..  That will let adidas know you do not like it.  But i can tell you what, they got me hooked all ready!

@unomaas ive owned the past 4 types of pres, adizeros, and the past 2 adipures. I know what im talking about. These arent predators. They dont have the predator element. They are heavy adizeros with a predator shape.

these are kinda ugly and pointless adidas should charcge less for these since there is less tech. than the regular adipowers.  thes are a complete fail for me just offer the synthetic DB models like before and quit trrying to make this boot your entire line.

Sacola said:

look lyk expensive *** plastic...smh i dont get da point of light cleats weight doesnt make a f 'in difference... a light boot wont change anything... if ur fast ur fast if ur slow ur slow plus its a power boot  y does it hav 2 be light. In the end nike is better, they r not trying 2 make their boots super lighter which allows them 2  use more quality materails to create a more useful boot. Adidas is goin 2 hav 2 stop at sum point cuz if i eva c 3 oz. cleats the cleat game will b finishd

@unomaas

I'll take it that you must own a pair yourself!  So please tell all of us what these boots are like on the pitch. . .

PS  If you are going to 'own' someone, please make sure that you proof read your comments before you post them to ensure that what's in your head is actually making sense in your comment.  Your last post does not make sense and makes you look like an uneducated American.

a great idea for an article would be nike T90 elite vs adipower sl

July 6, 2011 4:51 AM

Prefer the Normal Adipower! Cause its leather! Adidas shouldn't have put the SL's if they weigh more than 200g. Really Cool design though, looks futuristic.

Here is why this should be priced the same as the regular AdiPowers.

1. When Nike released the elite series they added a new, more expensive soleplate.  The soleplate is the same as the regular AdiPowers, thus, so far, there shouldn't be any change in price.

2. In the AdiZero series, the synthetic (regular, not Prime) costs the same as the leather versions.  The upper of the Predator SL's is Sprintskin, the same upper as the F50i TUNIT's, not the new AdiZero material, thus, so far, it should be CHEAPER than the regular AdiPowers.

3. The Predator Element is different, lighter, and less effective than the regular AdiPowers.

Finally, these should be slightly (£10?) cheaper than the regular AdiPowers.  It doesn't matter what the final weight is, it's the quality of the materials that should determine the price, and the materials in this shoe are nowhere near superior to the regular AdiPowers.

so the primes should be like 10 bucks more than the regulars?

FAIreland21 said:

Speed boots are not my strong field, but they shouldn't be as expensive as they are.  The reason: they'd sell more that way, I'd say maybe £30 more

July 9, 2011 4:17 PM
 

FAIreland21 said:

Never mind the upper is the same as the regular AdiZeros, but I stand by that they should be £10 cheaper because of the less effective Predator Element.

Anziz17 said:

I dont think they are so expensive . Here in Sweden are adipure sl Cost 3000 skr ( 300 £ ) and they Cost 2100 skr (209 £)  On prodrectsoccer like the adipower sl so here in Sweden are they really expensive . :)

the price tag is *** stupid, addidas have become just like nike except they'll never beat nike at their own game, i hope nike wins, not because i prefere nike but because i'm so pissed off at addidas, the price isn't a problem for me tbh, but i dont wear shoes because of their price tag, i wear shoes because their a part of you, messi wouldn't be complete without adizero's, you wouldnt see ronaldo in tiempo's, and my once upon a time favourite brand which i used to have my heart and soul in has fallen to the devil, *** addidas....

adidas is making every boot too close to the adizero now. the adipower was a good idea but the kinetic sl is pretty much an adizero that weighs and costs a lot more
