Which one is BETTER? - Adidas F50 Elite vs Predator 24 Elite FT

It's been a long time since you could say that the Adidas Predator and F50 are the two most popular football boots on the market, but in 2024, that is definitely the case! Hype aside, they also both happen to be incredible products, which of course begs the question, which one is better? Or perhaps more specifically, which one would be best for you?

In today's video we compare the Adidas F50 Elite to the Predator 24 Elite FT, discussing the main differences between them, where their strengths and weaknesses are and why you might strongly prefer one over the other. Which one would you pick?

It's crazy how these are some great boots but Kante's still wearing X 18.1 boots instead.

Hey Josh, could you test out the League version of the Predators with the fold over tongue.

Not gonna lie I extremely dislike the predators. I have tried them for 2 months true to size then for another month going a half size up, and they never broke in or got any more comfortable when playing daily or at least 4 times a week. I’m not sure if I’m the only one or what. Phantom gx are just far more comfortable.

I wonder why they discontinued the accuracy.1 (or replaced it with the 24)? I absolutely love my accuracy.1 and I think it’s the best soccer boot ever. I hope they bring it back so I can get another accuracy.1 when it wears out.

went to an adidas shop in england and tried these 2 and the copa pure plus …. the copa pure cleans both of them

[ignaciotomasi]

i feel like the predator 24s are such a step up from last years, even on the takedown models the quality increased significantly, i hope its the same for the f50s compared to the crazyfast

Hey Josh I plan on buying the predators but my left foot is a 10 in size and my right foot is a 9.5 what do you recommend going for the size 10 or the size 9.5

Do you think we’re gonna see Nike bring back the hypervenoms. I miss the 2013-2017 boot era. Especially for the turf options with the proximo X lineup. I don’t know why Nike doesn’t make their indoors or turf in their elite models

I own the accuracy+, accuracy.1, pred elite 24 ft in the tease solar red pack and the blue ones on the video but only wear the blue. Might sell the teasers as they were limited and I haven’t used them yet. Also have phantom gx 2 in rising gem pack and puma future ultimates. I shuffle between all of them depending on pitch and weather. I would say future & accuray.1 are most comfy. Gx is a little thin so I feel the ball to much but are still very nice. accuracy+ hurt my toes after while being LL they are tighter then the .1 oh and there all true to size for me 9us. The pred 24 take a while to get comfy but they do feel very nice. Not comfy like the future or accuracy.1 but just more speed boot like compared to the others if that makes sense. Like they feel more stiff with being very low cut like the gx’s but the upper is not as soft as the gx so I feel I can boot the ball better with the upper on it. They all have their pros and cons I guess.

I wish the accent color on this Predator colorway was actual red, and not the orangey hue they went with. I finally got a pair and I’m not going to keep them.

[danijelbrdar]

Need a shoe reco that has volume. Tried premier 3, new balance 442 reg and wide, pred pro, gx pro. Everything that’s “wide” isn’t wide and lacks volume. I have a weird shaped foot. Need help! Thanks

[luesman]

I ordered the F50s and could not believe how plasticky and cheap they felt. Am I missing something with these recent speedboots? High prices for plastic when you can get lovely, comfy K-leather boots for less money???

[tn]

Not a fan of either. There's something about the hybrid touch upper, when you hit the ball, it just doesn't feel nice. I've stopped using my preds completely after only 2 months. Occasionally I put them on and remember why I stopped using them. The F50's are just crap for me. Very stiff, and not comfortable at all. Mizuno all the way

[alexkantioler]

Is it true that the upper of the purple F50 boots is softer than the upper of the white ones which is stiffer? It makes no sense but many people say that

[xImBounty]

How would you compare the F50 Elite to the Speedflow.1?

[baraaamir]

What a coincidence, i legit just tried both of these exact boots in the same colorways today, but i genuinely was underwhelmed with both. The f50 upper is suprisingly stiff, the toe box is too low for me personally, and it still has that werid gap near the ankle.

The preds were way better in terms of fit, but flr some reasome also have a very low pointy toe box, but the heel was better than the f50.

I own a large collection, and genuinley i would aay the crazyfast plus are way more high tech and better feeling that this new f50.

But im reallh shocked at the amount of reviewrs labeling the upler of the f50 as "almost knitted like" but in reality its closer to a plasticy synthetic. Plus, the soleplates on both are just so boring and conservative. Really just shows you how nostaliga of names like "f50" and "preds" help in selling an average boot in reality.

[miscfutbol]

Just got the f50s, tried them on. Hella uncomfortable. Yes they are really light but legit feels like nothing is supporting the bottom of your foot. No cushioning and very plastic like feel.
Choosing the predators all day!

[DavidRosario-zg]

Hey Josh, can you make a video comparing f50 pro turf vs vapor 15 pro tf ? I would love to see your thoughts

[Tidal_]

Yo josh, any idea when the f50+ version will release? Im surprised it didnt release with this pack

[diamondznguyen]

Where’s the review for the f50 league laceless model ?🙃
