Feeling like it’s come from an alternate reality, Adidas have revealed the Predator 94 Reverse, taking the classic OG Predator from 1994 and inverting the classic Black, white red palette, presenting it in a white base with black three stripes and red accents.
Meet the Predator 94 Reverse. The one that never existed. The ying to the original’s Black, white and red yang. The mirror image of one of football’s most iconic silhouettes. And it’s a pristine piece of Predator perfection. The official colourway? "Ftwr White/Core Black/Ftwr White". The vibe? A clean inversion of one of football’s most iconic identities.
The formula is simple but striking. A white base runs across the upper, providing the canvas for bold black Three Stripes through the midfoot, while red accents inject that unmistakable Predator energy.
Those red hits appear in all the right places, from the classic Predator “eyes” on the tongue to subtle branding touches, before finishing with the callout text across the soleplate reading “Velocity, Accuracy, Swerve.” A reminder of the philosophy that made Predator legendary in the first place.
Underfoot, the boot reportedly rides on the soleplate of the next-generation Predator, bringing the silhouette bang up to speed with the demands of the modern game. The result is a boot that blends heritage design with contemporary performance tech, a concept that’s become increasingly central to adidas’ approach to archive revivals.
The Predator 94 Reverse marks the third major reissue of the boot that started it all. After the 20th-anniversary edition landed in 2014 and the 30th-anniversary edition arrived in 2024, adidas now presents something slightly different – not just a recreation, but a reimagination. A Predator from another timeline.
The adidas Predator 94 Reverse will be available from 17 March at prodirectsport.com/soccer
