Adidas are back with a smashing new colorway in the Predator LZ series, this one coming in a very fluent and effective White/Prime Blue/Yellow. Fans of the LZ will know that each Lethal Zone has its own specific purpose. What is nice about this release is that Adidas has used two different colors to separate the zones. We have seen this on the Predator LZ SL releases, but not yet to date on the regular LZ.

The transition from Blue to White produces a very iconic look and I am sure there will be a lot of players bursting to get their hands on a pair of these.

In terms of retail, they are currently available for $220 from soccer.com.

So, what makes the new Predator so different from previous editions? On this release, you get 5 different areas where technology has been employed, producing 5 different levels of performance. Rather than being a Power boot, this latest release is more of a hybrid that offers players more control right throughout their game. The 5 Lethal Zones are as follows:

1. The large First Touch zone has recessed ribs to cushion impact and stop the ball. It¡¯s a vacuum effect for instant control.
2. The Drive zone has a raised and thicker 3D shape following the natural curve of the instep to help create rebound distance and open the game.
3. The Dribble zone is designed for quick contact with the ball and close control.
4. The large Control/Pass zone is memory foam with a sticky coating on top. This ensures consistency, precision and killer passing.
5. On the Sweet Spot zone 3D ribs ensure longer contact with the ball to generate speed and spin.

As is the current trend with new releases, the upper has been re-engineered to combine the properties of a leather and synthetic upper. The material used is a mix of synthetic and a new Hybrid SL, adding an interesting twist to the release. The real test will be how they perform in game ¨C something I will update on after this weekend. The Predator Zones are each composed of a SL rubber that adds a new element of control.

In terms of weight, they come in at 8.0oz, which is just a slight bit heavier than the adiPower Predator and is definitely lightweight for a power boot. Within the soleplate, Adidas has again placed a cavity for players who want to take advantage of miCoach technology.
