Video: Adidas’ new Predator Instinct boot includes the tongue from the very first pair of Preds

Hard to believe it’s been 20 years since they first made an appearance, isn’t it?

Hard to believe it’s been 20 years since they first made an appearance, isn’t it?

If you happened to own a pair of those iconic boots you might be a little down at the fact that you’re suddenly aware of how old you are right now, but a look at what Adidas have done to commemorate the anniversary might cheer you up a bit.

And you’ll have to make do with looking at them because the limited edition Predator Tongue boots are, unfortunately, not available to buy so lovers of ‘Preds’ will have to make do with the wide range of Predator boots that are currently on the market.

Far be it from us to be telling Adidas their business, but if they’re in the mood to commemorate some more of their iconic boots from the past, then a tribute to, and preferably a re-issue of, the famous Predator Manias – made famous in the 2002 World Cup – would certainly not go amiss.

It would definitely go down well in GAA circles, that’s for sure.
