New Arrival adidas Predator Elite Fold-Over Tongue Firm Ground Soccer Cleats - Chaos Vs Control (FA26)

A clean top for the box finisher

You know the type. The striker who needs one touch, not three. The adidas Predator Elite Fold-Over Tongue FG is cut for that player. It sits in the line, and Predator has always been about damage on the ball. Here that damage comes off a covered instep.

Why the tongue folds over

The fold-over tongue is the whole point. The collar wraps down over the laces, so nothing sits between your foot and the ball when you shoot. The Primeknit upper is one piece that hugs the foot like a sock, and Nanostrike+ mesh runs across the forefoot with rubber grip right where you make contact. Prefer your laces open? The is the same cleat without the collar.

Built for firm grass and the shot on sight

The Strikeframe plate is a full-length firm-ground setup for real grass. Studs bite when you plant to shift a defender, and they hold when you open up to curl one far post. Powerspine keeps the midfoot steady when you load, and at 7.2 oz the cleat swings fast. When the ball sits up in the box, you hit it clean and it goes.

The Predator Elite runs true to size for most players. Between sizes, or want a locked-in feel for quick turns? Go down a half. The regular fit suits a normal-to-slightly-narrow foot; wide-footed players should try them on first.

Care and Maintenance

• Wipe the Primeknit upper with a damp cloth after matches; brush off dried grass first
• Air-dry away from heat, sun, and dryers, which warp the plate and break down the mesh
• Stuff with newspaper to hold shape and pull moisture
• Synthetic knit upper, so skip the leather conditioner
