Adidas Predator Obsidian Strike: The Classic Predator, Reborn in Matte Black Leather
Wed, Aug 13.25


The Predator legacy just got a sleek upgrade. Adidas has dropped the Predator Obsidian Strike, a bold reboot of the iconic boot that blends legendary DNA with a fresh, automotive-inspired look. This one’s for the lovers of premium style and performance — and it’s landing in Ultra Football right now.
Matte Black, Chrome Silver, and Red — Pure Predator Power
First up, this isn’t your typical Predator colourway. The Obsidian Strike rocks a matte black Fusionskin leather upper, giving off serious luxury vibes. Gone are the classic white accents, swapped for sharp silver chrome details on the tongue, tooling islands, and those unmistakable Three Stripes. Add in pops of vivid red, and you’ve got a boot that’s as stylish as it is deadly on the pitch. For the purist, this will remind you of the previous Adidas Predator BWR.
Leather Love: The First in the Predator 25 Range
It’s also the first leather boot in the Predator 25 collection. Crafted from premium Fusionskin leather, the Obsidian Strike delivers that perfect balance of comfort, durability, and ball control — everything you expect from Predator, dialed up with a touch of old-school craftsmanship. This boot doesn’t just look the part, it performs like a boss.
Heritage Meets Modern Edge
True to Predator’s rich history, you’ll spot some subtle tributes that fans will appreciate — a silver “EST.1994” sign-off nods to where it all began, while the iconic silver Predator eyes logo takes pride of place on the side. The black heel pops with silver “Pred” and adidas branding, rounding off a boot that’s packed with heritage and style.
On Pitch with the Best
Keep an eye out now — adidas stars like Trent Alexander-Arnold and Calafiori will be lacing up the Obsidian Strike as they make their mark on the pitch.
