adidas made waves on the pitch with the return of the Predator, and now they’re doing the same off it with the long-awaited release of the Predator Megaride.

After rumours emerged late last year, the Three Stripes have officially tied the knot between the Predator and iconic running sneaker, releasing a blacked-out model that will have the streets for years to come.

Arriving in all black, the release turns heads the same way both models did in '06. A combination of classic elements transforms a look of the past into the present, all while staying close to their roots.

Like previous Megaride models, the sneakers feature a bounce-tractioned footbed, maximising comfort with every step. As for the aesthetic, the Absolute-inspired look takes control, featuring everything from the fold-over tongue and strike zone right the way to the embossed ‘Teamgeist’ logo on the heel.

The adidas Predator Megaride is available now via END and select retailers.
