Another adidas Predator Mania remake hit the store in 2024! So far, we got the Japan Blue and the Pearl editions. And while they are nostalgic in their own rights, nothing beats going straight to the OG Predator colourway that defined the Predator models of the 1990s and 2000s.
So let’s breakdown what’s to expect with this remake. First off, we can see how can this teleport you back to the boot stores of 2002, as for sure you had seen the Predator Mania paraded in shelves in the classic black, red and white launch colourway. Black for the upper, red for the tongue, and white for the Stripes and Elements-an exact colourway revival!
Besides the look, it’s always welcome news whenever the remakes also bring back the tech that made them who they are in the first place. In the case of the Mania, we are talking about a premium leather for the upper, a strapped fold-over tongue and the ribbed and swervy elements on the instep. All of them are present to really go all in on presenting a blast from the past.
Reminding everyone of the brand’s 75th anniversary while also flexing German craftsmanship with leather boots, adidas embossed a MADE IN GERMANY signoff on the tongue. Like the previous 2024 Mania remakes, all the tech sit on the modern Controlframe 2.0 outsole.
