After the extended launch of the adidas Predator Lethal Zones one zone at a time, adidas have finally unveiled the boot in its full glory. Behold the new adidas Predator LZ, the latest in the most successful boot range in history! Check out our review of the adidas Predator LZ and the Predator LZ SL!
Designed with five distinctive ‘lethal zones’ to deliver performance, the new Adidas Predator LZ was developed in conjunction with world-class players such as Van Persie (Arsenal FC), Xavi (FC Barcelona), Nasri (Manchester City FC), Nani (Manchester United FC) and Di Maria (FC Real Madrid), who tested and contributed valuable input to the development of the Predator LZ.
A newly engineered super-soft upper combines the benefits of leather and synthetic. This type of upper allows the Predator to weigh in at mere 225 grams whilst maintaining the fit and touch of a traditional leather. The upper integrates five zones of SL rubber technology for perfect ball control. The deadliest tool set ever fitted to a boot.
The ‘Drive’ zone creates a rebound effect for greater distance and power while the ‘Sweet Sport’ zone generates greater spin and pace. The ‘First Touch’ zone on the forefoot area give immediate ball contact. On the instep of the boot is the pass zone with memory foam and sticky print, designed to increases ball contact time for more precise passing. The ‘Dribble’ zone allows for a large number of quick ball contacts, spaced out to ensure optimum grip.
The outsole has a Sprintframe construction which uses geometrical learnings and offers the perfect balance between lightweight and stability. These Predators provide maximum grip and optimum pressure distribution on firm ground surfaces, thanks to the unique adidas TRAXION™ 2.0 FG stud configuration.
The Predator Lethal Zones joins the AdiZero and AdiPure 11Pro in offering miCoach support and is the first miCoach enabled Predator boot. Players can now track their performance stats such as distance, sprint count and maximum speed, then wirelessly transfer the data to a mobile phone or PC.

This is the other launch colorway, and it is much closer to black…could you get away with this Emil?
oh, I’m not sure, they’re supposed to be mainly black, those has more red to it than black but I’ll think about it. Thanks though!
sick
I think the dribble is too much on the outside of the boot, I think the pads on ctr360 maestri help better than these on dribling…and it don’t seems to me that the sweet spot can give so much extra spin…however, I am intrigued with these boots and am waiting for a review!
im getting these
Although not exactly what I had in mind as the next predator, adidas never disappoints with the predator line so I will give them a go! When is SR getting them for a review?
im a forward i need something with speed and shot should i get adizeros or these please help
One of the best features of the new adiZero is the great strike you get, specifically with the leather version. If I was you, I’d go out and get a pair of leather adiZeros!
I have small feet though will the material still be the same as the adult size …I wear a size 5 (us) kids
no unless yo get the absolion’s and that is the closest material possible to the real lz
I LOVE THIS SHOES!!! THEY ARE COMPININING ACCYRACY FOR PASS AND SHOT AND A MAGNET FOR FEET!!!
I heard they say adidas LZ. Is suitable for dribbling
These boots are amazing didn’t think anyone will ever top up ADIDAS its the best shoes ever the soccer boots….are even better
