After my 10th game I have reached my verdict on the new Predators. I like them. I am a little biased when it come to predators so I will not compare them with other shoes. These shoes are designed for striking the ball. This is a quality build shoe. I do miss the kangaroo leather. This shoe is not as soft as the previous version. This is the first Predator that gave me a blister so it does take longer to break in.

I play soccer every week and my cleats were the old predator pulse for hard ground. I had two pair of these during 5 years, but it's time to change. Both pairs did a great job all along. They are great over natural grass and turf. It's time to try new ones, and tried the predator X. In 5 or 6 years you can see the improvement. Predator X are great. I used them today for the first time and felt very comfortable, as good as my old ones. If you are used to predators, you will love this new model.

I've had several Adidas shoes and all have great but those. The first day I used them, they already looked old and ugly. They are falling apart and it's been only one month of use!!!

The design and colors of this shoes caught my eyes and I bought them by trusting the name of Adidas in football. In my first try, they injured the right side of my ankle and it bled during the game. Inside of the shoes, right under the first line of lace, was also very disturbing. But, I thought this all trouble was just because the shoes was new. I kept trying them by placing silicon and cotton protectors all around my foot. After trying 5-6 times, unfortunately nothing changed, instead got worse. In the beginning, it was only right side of my ankle but now right side of my ankle, front of the ankle and the back of the left ankle are injured. I cant touch those areas on my feet. I made my final decision to give this shoes back but unfortunately the customer relations are not that good in Europe as in USA. I m still writing emails to find out how I can give them back. My advice to people who are considering to buy this shoes is to think twice and buy only if they can give it back after couple of tries. I still dont understand how such a big company can produce such shoes without thinking of the player comfort at all!
