Home / Product Reviews / Predator X Absolion Review

 


So the new Predator X Absolion is many things, flashy colors with an interesting style, an advanced piece of soccer technology, and
above all a great deal at the moment.

This particular version feature the David Beckham sponsored
colorway, which is red on white has red flames all over the
predator element. Also, it has the same metal stripe going along
the back of the heel protector that all of the X verisons of the
Predator have, with the word “Predator,” impressed into the metal.
The cleats are half black but turn to the same red as the stud
plate halfway up.

As for the shoes itself, it features the stand Predator element
on the instep to help you gt greater contact on the ball for those
shots right at the goal. It has asymetrical lacing to further
widen the touch surface, and soft leather on the toe to provide
greater control. Also, it has the trademark heel protector coverin
the back of the shoe in order to give you greater protection from
any slide tackles that might come your way. You may get knocked
over and some dirty on your soccer jerseys, but you’ll get back up. The element on the
front of the shoes helps keep your foot safe which is just not
something you’re gonna find on a Nike Superfly, or any other super
light shoe.

Overall, it’s a great shoe, and at $74.99 you can’t beat the
price. I picked up a pair and I’m pretty happy with them. They’re
comfortable and tghe double-stiching on the toe has helped them to
hold up to the ground and other peoples boots. I’d recommend them
if you want Predator power, but can’t afford to spend $220 for the
top drawer ones.
