Features of the Adidas Predator 20.1 Shoes

The Adidas Predator 20.1 shoes bring the Predator experience out of the pitch and create a sneaker twist for it.  Built for the streets, the pair has been designed to deliver breathability and comfort for the wearer, perfect for those casual walks in the park. 

The upper of the pair is made from a knit-based material. The element effectively envelops the foot, delivering a sock-like sensation for the wearer. Although it has a tongueless and laceless design, the mid-top construction delivers a supportive feel while locking the foot in place. 

To enhance the shoe’s overall look, bold three stripes are situated on the lateral side of the upper. The Predator logo has been placed in the heel area of the cleat, as well. The overall look of the shoe takes notes from its firm ground and artificial ground counterparts. 

The midsole of this pair is made from the Three Stripe’s Boost technology. This cushioning system is made from a thermoplastic polyurethane material that promotes impact absorption while simultaneously promoting energy return for every step taken. 

The outsole of this pair features round nubs that promote traction and grip on a variety of surfaces.

Fit

The Adidas Predator 20.1 shoes have a knit upper that envelops the wearer’s foot. The pair sports a laceless design but delivers support through its mid-top construction.

The collar extends to the ankle area, promoting a more stable feel for the wearer, as well.

Upper

The upper of the Adidas Predator 20.1 shoes are constructed from a knit material that delivers breathability and comfort. While it has a laceless construction, the upper material hugs the foot and is form-fitting.

The material extends up to the ankle area, delivering a supportive feel through its mid-top collar. 

This variation shares a similar look to its on-pitch counterparts. While it does not feature the Demonskin technology found in its firm ground and artificial grass versions, a diamond-like pattern found in several areas of the upper takes its place.

This design essentially mimics the look of spikes. Additionally, the Adidas Predator brand is placed in the heel area.

Midsole

A Boost midsole is used as the cushioning system of the Adidas Predator 20.1 shoes. Making use of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), the material compresses under pressure to absorb impact while it instantaneously springs back up to its original shape.

This cushioning system is also known for doubling down on responsiveness for every step taken. This Adidas technology is also found in other Adidas soccer shoes including the Adidas X 19.1 Turf, the Adidas Predator 19.1 shoes, and the Adidas Predator 19+ turf.

Outsole

The outsole of this Adidas Predator model features round nubs that are placed in a linear pattern. This setup is engineered to promote traction on a variety of surfaces.
