adidas Advancement Pack for Euro 2024: Predator, F50, and Copa Pure

At this European Championship, three of adidas’s most significant boot models – Predator, Copa, and F50 – will take centre stage. While football boots often play a secondary role in major tournaments compared to kits or the action on the pitch, Euro 2024 is different. The German brand’s ‘Advancement Pack’ draws inspiration from iconic colourways and pays homage to adidas’s origins.

Predator – A Nod to the 2002 Japan Blue

The Predator in this pack clearly references the Predator Mania Japan Blue boot from 2002. Faithfully remade in 2020, this version can be considered the standout boot of the tournament. Worn by Jude Bellingham, it will be a talking point on the pitch, with many players expected to choose it. The range includes a tongue version, plus lace-up and laceless options.

F50 – Echoes of Euro 2012

The F50 makes its comeback in time for Euro 2024, and the first colourway evokes the spirit of Euro 2012. Red, white, and light blue adorn the speed silo, just as they did twelve years ago, though used in a different arrangement. Like the Predator, the F50 will be highly visible on the pitch for the same reason – its classic, eye-catching design.

Copa Pure – Understated Elegance

Among the three models, the Copa Pure is the least ubiquitous, but it brings a refined, classy feel to the Advancement Pack. Finished in pure white, this boot is suitable for any occasion – whether gliding across the pitch like Declan Rice or serving as the perfect accessory off it.
