Adidas Predator Pulse Blackout SG
Mint near perfect condition - appears to have been used once, almost no visible signs of wear. Elastic has stretched over the years, see last pic.
The Upper:
- Adidas continued the Predator Pulse with a premium K Leather upper
- A newly crafted tongue was designed with a bit thicker of an elastic to keep a nice, snug fit
- Adidas used thicker, more elevated stripes compared to the last model, but kept a similar look with the stripes wrapping underneath the boots
- In terms of the Predator element, Adidas crafted a 6 piece rubber design for increased power and swerve.
The Sole Plate:
- Adidas introduced the PowerPulse technology with the Pulse
- The PowerPulse was supposed to help with weight distribution, making the boot more comfortable and increasing power based on the distribution
- The overall sole plate was similar to the mania, with a 2 piece design and a bladed TRX stud pattern
Notes and Comments:
- The Predator Pulse had big shoes to fill after the success of the iconic Mania
- The Pulse is one of the best Predators ever made
- There were significantly more colorways of the Pulse made from the previous model, showing how Adidas had taken a creative leap during this time period
