adidas, David Beckham Intro Originals Predator 24 Collection
Designed in collaboration with David Beckham to mark the Predator’s 30-year anniversary.
November 6, 2024
adidas and David Beckham have unveiled the adidas x David Beckham Predator 24. Two years in the making, the limited-edition Predator breaks new ground by featuring – for the first time – the Trefoil on a Predator boot. Inspired by adidas’ origins, the Predator 24 includes a classic two-tone colorway, with a predominantly white upper alongside bold premium detailing in the adidas Originals iconic blue Pantone.
The Trefoil features on key design details such as the outsole, heel tap and elastic strap, alongside a monochrome design integrated within the iconic three stripes. The rubber elements typically found on the Predator 24 tongue have been replaced with all-Fusionskin leather and includes an embroidered Trefoil. The reverse side of the tongue has an adidas x David Beckham sign-off.
The adidas x David Beckham Predator 24 will be worn on-pitch during the next round of European club competition fixtures by top players, including Trent Alexander-Arnold, Paulo Dybala, Rodrigo De Paul and Éder Militão. Alessia Russo will wear the boots in her upcoming home league game Nov. 8.
Accompanying the Predator 24 drop is a signature Originals apparel collection, designed in collaboration with David Beckham and inspired by ‘70s-style silhouettes. The collection pays homage to the vintage look of the era but brought up to date through contemporary and unique design hues.
Each article is crafted with attention to detail, using high-quality materials and featuring design elements that combine timeless and modern appeal, from bold prints and vibrant colors to unexpected details and clean lines. The range includes a windbreaker, track top, track pants, jersey, T-shirt, shorts and socks.
“We’re always looking at how we can break new ground in the world of football, and what better way to do so than with one of our longest serving and most iconic partners,” says Sam Handy, senior vice president, product and design, adidas. “A name so synonymous with Predator, it was only right we handed over the creative reins to David to enable him to bring his vision to life through an adidas lens. This boot is a true reflection of on-pitch performance combined with luxury lifestyle, elevated to a level never seen before with a Predator boot.”
“I’ve loved designing this special Predator boot and collection with adidas,” says Beckham. “It’s great to finally share what we’ve been working on with fans of the adidas Predator and Originals. For the first time ever, this Predator features the iconic trefoil – I asked the question and they said yes – and I’m so proud of how the collection has turned out. It’s fantastic to celebrate 30 years of the Predator and with that, look back at many amazing on-pitch moments for myself and so many others.”
The adidas x David Beckham Predator 24 will also make its debut on the virtual pitch in EA SPORTS FC 25 starting Nov. 14. The new boot will also be equipped on the likes of David Beckham, Alessia Russo and Trent Alexander Arnold across all game modes starting Nov. 19.
The adidas x David Beckham Predator 24 and Originals apparel collection will be available starting Nov. 7 at select retail stores and Adidas.com.
