100% legal - 0% fair. With the new adidas Predator 20 goalkeeper gloves you radiate aggressiveness and power. The Predator has sharp, animal-like design lines and is the most feared glove on the planet.
Palm/Foam
- URG 2.0: The surface is made of 3.5 mm extremely soft foam and an additional cushioning layer. This results in outstanding impact absorption. The very high grip in all weather conditions in combination with a further improved durability make this adhesive foam a perfect choice for all ambitious goalkeepers.
- Anatomical flex zones: The embossing on the fingers and on the rubber supports the natural movements of the hand and prevents bulging of the adhesive foam. This construction makes the glove even more flexible and contributes to a perfect, tight fit.
- Extended Adhesive Foam: The catching surface is extended at the wrist to provide increased grip when securing the ball.
Cut
- Negative cut: The negative cut ensures a tight and comfortable fit on the fingers. The goalkeeper gets a perfect fit and an optimal feeling for the ball. 80% of adidas professional goalkeepers play with this cut.
- Improved fit: The mesh layer of the fingers is made of one piece and anatomically shaped. This leads to a very direct ball contact. Thanks to a reduced number of seams, the comfort increases noticeably.
Backhand
- Demonskin: The new backhand offers over 400 small, spiky silicone elements. The spikes are constructed like the spikes known from athletics and interact with the surface of the ball.
- Especially in the punching area, these silicone elements provide a significantly increased grip due to their composition, thus also more ball control and more power when punching. As a result, every fist defence is even safer, more controlled and further than before. Furthermore, the silicone elements improve the stability of the mechano-Backhand without negatively influencing the very high flexibility.
- Mechano-Material: The once again revised, very functional Mechano-Material is breathable and very elastic. The lightweight fabric offers a high flexibility and adapts perfectly to all deformations of the goalkeeper glove.
Closure
- Detachable Stretch-Strap: The detachable stretch strap is a sensational new development by adidas. The new closure system offers goalkeepers the possibility to individually adjust the fit. Play without strap for a natural fit with unlimited freedom of movement or with strap for better stabilization.
- Extended entry: The extension of the entry up to the forearm provides maximum freedom of movement while still allowing a firm, secure fit on the wrist.
- Asymmetrical Mechanical Bandage: the bandage is fully integrated into the glove body, which closes asymmetrically, made of the Mechanical material. On the one hand it allows a comfortable entry into the glove, but at the same time it is tight and firm enough to support the wrist optimally with every movement.
More Features
- Thumb Wrap: The rolled coating on the thumb provides increased stability and a firm fit for the thumb. This supports the goalkeeper in all his catching and defensive movements.
- Backhand completely sewn inside for an even tighter fit and a noticeably improved ball feeling.
