100% Legal - 100% Unfair. Exude aggression and more power with the new adidas Predator Goalkeeper Gloves. The Predator has sharp, animal-like design lines and is the most feared glove on the planet.
Palm/Foam
- URG 2.0: The pad is made of 3.5 mm of 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 an even improved durability make this adhesive foam a perfect choice for all ambitious goalkeepers.
- Anatomical Flex Zones: The embossings on the fingers and on the pad support the natural movements of the hand and prevent bulges in the adhesive foam. This design makes the glove even more flexible and contributes to a perfect, tight fit.
- Extended Adhesive Foam: The extended catching surface at the wrist allows for increased grip when securing the ball.
Cut
- Negative Cut: The negative cut provides a tight and comfortable fit on the fingers. The goalkeeper gets a perfect fit and an optimal feel for the ball. 80% of adidas professional goalkeepers play with this cut.
Backhand
- Demonskin: The new backhand offers over 400 small, spike-like 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, the silicone elements provide a high grip, thus also a very high ball control and extend the contact time of the glove with the ball, which improves the power distribution and increases the power transmission to the ball, so that the ball can also be defended further than before when fisting. As a result, each fist defense is much more targeted, controlled and farther than previously used. Likewise, the silicone spikes improve the stability of the mechano-Backhand without negatively affecting the high flexibility.
- Mechano material: The again revised, very functional Mechano material is breathable and very elastic. The lightweight fabric offers high flexibility and adapts perfectly to all deformations of the goalkeeper glove.
- Replaceable Wrist Control: this lightweight construction consists of three different parts, which are incorporated into the backhand in the area of the wrist, where they are designed to prevent the wrist from buckling and overstretching backwards. Due to the special construction, this element offers a high flexibility.
Closure
- Asymmetrical Mechano Strap: integrated into the body of the glove and made of mechano material, this asymmetrical strap is flexible enough to allow a comfortable slip-in, while at the same time it fits snugly around the wrist for optimal stabilization.
- Stretch Strap: This textile stretch strap wraps twice around the wrist and provides superior stabilization properties. It also allows for an individual adjustment. At the same time, the stretch material ensures a high degree of freedom of movement in any situation, without the glove not sitting well on the wrist.
Finger Protection
- Replaceable finger protection system: the flexible and adjustable protection system protects fingers from overstraining and injuries. The ergonomically shaped, removable sticks adapt perfectly to the goalkeeper's fingers. The extremely flexible design allows the individual fingers to grip without any additional effort, while bending the fingers backwards into the injury zone is virtually impossible.
More Features
- Thumb Wrap: The rolled padding on the thumb provides increased stability and a firm fit for the thumb. This supports the goalkeeper in all his catching and defensive movements.
- Fully internally sewn backhand for an even tighter fit and a further noticeable improvement in the feel of the ball
