I literally have just received the edge and took them out for a quick sesh and these are my thoughts . I have currently been wearing the numbers up version of the freak+ and at first the midfoot was incredibly tight. So I tried stretching with a wine bottle . I know it sounds weird but it really worked left it for about two days and boom ! The uppers on the edge feel really plasticy , but the panels it has really does give a very distinct feel on the ball . Both shoes are wide up front so no problem there . Since I do have wide feet .The edge does have a really stiff upper compared to the freak + but again it’s about the sensation, and really maybe the play style. Yes boots don’t matter really what position you play and won’t make you better but trying on the boots you would you know what I mean .the freak feels a lot more connected to the foot and ball while the edge does not .the edge also is really tight on the little pointy bone on top of my foot and caused slight discomfort and had to take them off a bit early :( while the freak has the prime knit there on my foot so it’s very comfy now. the edge is a fantastic boot but for me the EDGE is going the FREAK+ . Love the feel and sensation of the ball on the freaks more than edge. The edge isn’t a bad boot but I know it will require more break in time than the freaks.
I just ordered the laces version of freak, I have wide feet so kinda worried they’ll not fit
how long did it take to break in?
I have wide feet. Should I try Freak? Saw your comment on narrow midfoot.
@@User32187 How you feeling now on freak ? I have wide foot too
@@VINUVSUNNY well funny enough, the day after i got an email saying them at my order had been cancelled and got my money back, i ended up getting nike mercurial vapor 14 elite and they fit very well
I think that the spikes look cooler, but the fins might work better.
Facts
The fins might have more grip than the spikes but the spikes look better
@@giovannirodriguez7803 exactly what he said
No
No doubts about it that fins are better
Personally I think the spikes look cooler
But cool is not good
@@Modric2.0 there both good boots tho but I agree the spikes look cooler
@@victoriasmithcollins3499 ive tested every major adidas boot from freak to speedportal, if i have to put them in order it would be this:
F50 Adizero IV Leather Remake
Speedflow
Speedportal
Ghosted
Freak
Edge
i mostly tested the + versions, but coming to the Predator Edge i just don't like 'thick' plasticy material and that clunky layout in general. It also was impossible to get my feet inside those.
Predator Freak on the other hand felt better and i like the spikes a lot more because you keep more feel on the ball but coming to comfort i have to mention that my heels just felt really uncomfortable.
Ghosted was ok but nothing special. If you like thin plastic boots and prefer to have the best feel on the ball i hardly recommend chosing the speedflow, if you want the most comfort and a leather feel F50 Adizer IV every day - They are just great because they are a hybrid beetween the X having a carbon inlay and a leather boot which gives you a considerable amount of protection on your feet but still a pronounced touch, because its still very soft and flexibel material not like Kaiser 5 ones for example.
Agreed
Your right you need a boot that help you with ball control and even responsibility
I love Unisports vids they help me so much
Can’t wait for the edge to get slammed in the months to come on the boot nerds podcast. Jays gotta be nice when talking about a big new product
I don't trust buying the Edge+ because I bought a pair of the 2012 version and those fins peeled off and some fell off after 10 or so games. I look forward to the next generation Copas (the ones that Arthur was spotted using in a training session) because they look amazing. For now, I will stick with my trusted X Ghosted.
That’s why you should buy the ones without fins
I think the freak looks way cooler! And would suit my playing style better
''should you stick with your predator freak+''
me watching this in 2022 with my 40$ umbro velocita league:
I have the Freak+. They are by far the best boots I've ever worn. The control and power is insane. The only downside is that they're a bit too grippy in dry weather if you like dribbling. I will get the Edges to compare, but think I'll wait for a better color because both the blue and black are less than impressive.
i had them 1 year ago and yesterday i bought them again they are the best boots
I agree I also have them
i have got a question for you:the spikes breaks after a year?
@@luciatebaldini3554yuppp demon skin does come off.Depends how you take care of them.But they do come off after a while
I just bought the new orange gray and white addidas predators
I prefere the Freak cause they look more agressif
Edge is not so "Predator" vibe visually. Weird launch colorway. The Fins might be too big in my opinion and a bit sloppy on the execution. For me, if the Demonskin spikes is more durable and does not wear/come off, Freak is much better...its a weird fitting boot but yeh, I like it more.
First view🔥Love and watch from Nepal🇳🇵💖

I always wear 2 sizes larger for football boots because I am a wide foot and the only ones available were the edge 3 and they are incredible
Ty for the review, the freaks are sick 🤘🏼
Find are way better, I just got the new ones and they are incredibly good!
The three stripes ok the new blue ones look cheap. Same with previous Adidas boots like the nemesis.
I've never understood why Predators have so much grippy stuff close to the sole of the shoe, because you normally hit the ball closer to the upper part of the shoe. The new Predator doesn't have anything on the upper part and that's why I prefer the Freak. It obviously also looks much cooler, and it's more flexible.
@SideAFTVClips i mean it depends on ur preference and technique
@SideAFTVClipsdude you don't need the rubber bits for short passes😄I'm talking about shots and long passes
Having the grip all over also helps when receiving the ball since it covers more surface area. You’re gonna get bad touches from time to time, especially when it’s in the air
@@AndreasNV only power shots are taken with the top of the foot. Regardless, modern Preds are garbage, I will stick with my Powerswerve or hope to get some more of the remakes for under retail
@@AndreasNV are all your shots volleys??
Would love a comparison of youth/kid football boots? They seem to be slightly different in subtle ways. What boot overall would you choose for elite junior's?
That would be really great!
I which i had a cool boot like that.😍😍
Wish*
If you’re someone who has never bought a top end boot the edge feels pretty good. I have the edge and it feels so much more attached to me compared to other boots I’ve owned and the rubber elements really help with getting some swerve on the ball. Honestly I like the edge a lot and feel like people put it down because they’re so used to super high end boots. Comparatively the edge isn’t as comfortable as other top end boots but it has actual functional tech in the form of the striking elements which will make a noticeable difference with the ball. The freak provided a good ball feel why the edge provides good power, swerve and some increase grip on the ball. As someone who’s playing style focused on passing and shots rather than tricks I find the edge as a better deal but if I focused on 1v1’s a little more I could see this being closer.
Hi, this video really helped me once again. 🙂
When does your winter sale end?
That boots collection 😫
id say that the freaks are more of a midfielder boot, whereas the edge is more of a winger/forward boot
In my opinion I love the freak better than the edge
I’d still go with the Freak
0:56 love that hitmarker
More than freak, I liked Adidas Predator Mutator
Any other boots you want us to take a look at? 👀🔥 /Jay
Mizuno Morelia Neo III Pro KL AG review and sizing
hi sorry but your football boots on the store are too expensive i hope if you could make them affordable but love your content.
I like more the freak shoe but there is not my size in unisportstore
The predictor freak is better for me
Love from India ❤️
would the edge be the first preds without the external heel counter?
i got the edge i love it
As a goalkeeper I like the freaks more
In my opinion freak is for finess and edge for power
I was literally thinking about both of the boots but I will for sure go for the freaks thanks for the vid 🦾
So... *EDGE* or *FREAK?* 💬 /Jay
Freaks
Freak
First
For me using the boot now for a short period I’ve already decided. When I had the FREAK my foot fell to tight and cramped in mid foot and towards my toes causing me to get blisters on my toes and on my heal and although it’s minor it affects you, where as when I had the EDGE my foot felt more free and less cramped whilst still being tight and fortunately didn’t give me blisters anywhere on my feet which is great. Coming to grip the freak feel less grippy in a nice way, what I mean by that is it had a lot of grip but wasn’t over done which was a nice feeling on the ball, it also felt very accurate when doing in the air tricks and close ball work which is nice. The EDGE felt more grippy and a bit over done but also feels nice on the ball when doing close to feet ball work, you can still do in the air tricks but doesn’t feel as nice as the FREAK. The Freak stuck the ball weakly for me and didn’t seem to get the precise power then what a forward or a long range shooter may want which can be big deal for some or mild for others. The EDGE struck the ball with lots of power and was really nice to feel which is big for all types of players. So overall I lean towards the EDGE but some will feel different about that.
no hate but why not buy regillor boots
6:20 that move made me uncomfortable
Jesus Loves You
me who literally dose not care how good it is and buys them because of the looks
Can you please do a vid like this but with the goalie gloves instead of the cleats. Also which cleat here is better for keepers? Like goal kicks wise
I have edge right now but spikes are crazzyyy
is it durable?
@@VascoF00tball yea there durable, look nice, and perform well
@@skittyg13RC what type is it.. elite pro academy or first copy?
@@VascoF00tball uhhh what are those?
@@skittyg13RC elite is the most expensive in the brand... then pro then academy (the quality differ)
In the end a boot wont make you better. I reeeeeally like the Design of the edge since its looking like a real football boot again and not a monster like the freak. Also love the colorway, dont know why everyone hates the edge, wearing it and not having any problems. Just buy what you want
I have the edge
Edge is perfect🤤
im not happy with this new predator boot. i rly dont like the fins the boot doesnt look what it is supposed to be ow. i rly miss the spikes. the predator is supposed to look like a god boot but now it looks like a weak boot.
U guys r amazing
you should do X-speedflow vs predators vs edge to see which is better
Fins are not cool but they seem like they could work
First
We don't have that much of money dude:-(
I have both of them
Hey everybody what boots do you prefer and why?
Could be Nike adidas puma
If an opponent is wearing the Edge boots, I'm immediately blowing right past him.....or her. 🏃🤷♂️
can you review the kids version cause im one and it has high hard bumps instead of spikes
Heads up if your buying the spikes if you trip the spikes might fall off it happened to to me
And what would you prefer for a defender
Hello, I would like to ask you, which football boots do you think are best for artificial grass? Thanks a lot!
Spikes!
Does it make sense to say that Predator Mutator is in between the two boots, since Mutator spikes are more in number, and closely spaced to each other more than Freak. Making it a bit more like the combination of both?
You are absolutely right. The closeness of the nubs on the Mutators makes for a better power striking surface than the Freak's much more spread out nubs. While the Edge's close-set fins take what the Mutator's close nubs do and turns it up another notch, at the expense of close ball feel.
It makes tons of sense to think of the Mutators as a middle ground between the dribbling-oriented Freaks and the power-oriented Edges. Personally, I think the Mutators are the best Predator of the three. Ironic that it came out before the other two.
@@CognizantCheddar totally agree with you! The only cons for me (personally experience) is the middle part of mutator is too narrow and took some times to get used to it. Other than that, it is one of the best football boots I have ever had
My predator accuracys dont have spikes nor fins. they have the usual graphic. Please tell my gameplay wont change
By being a Goalkeeper I will use the freak. But I dont have money🥺🥺🥺🥺
The poised anthropology apparently touch because jasmine reversely brake beyond a nostalgic halibut. doubtful, hospitable oven
The spikes look cooler😎
Yo guys Can someone help me I have the predator edge .3 I wanna know if it help me like pass and does things cuz I don’t really know
is he playing the edges in natural pitch?
Buy a cheap pair of boots with decent leather, they are better in every way. Adidas are charging extortionary prices for absolute fking garbage.
Freaks are better for sure
I have Adidas predator freaks
if wide feet use predator edge .. its ok for use or no .. bcause i buy predator freak , its very fit to my feet ..
To be honest the added grip is complete marketing bull shit and this is why you should buy the spike because it looks cooler
bro unisport i bout the nike phantom gt2 acedemy but its been 3 weeks and it hasnt come yet it said it will come at 5-7 days
???
I like both
The common things between these are the manufacturer, both are predators and i can’t afford even one of them
Just bring og Accelerator 2 design back with modern twist.
I got a Freak+, but I didn't adapt. For control and shooting I liked it, but for driving the ball I think it locks and holds.
I dont think Ive seen any pros outfileds go for the +preds. only keepers. L for adidas
Bro imagine having a good boot 🥲👍
1st Awesome stuff
couled you deliver to me in kenya any boots but for kids in syokimau madiba cout b gate3

They are not good because you cant shoot really well with them those plastics, to shoot a goal with those is impossible
