Adidas Celebrates 75 Years of Craftmanship with Limited Collection Predator

Today, adidas continues its celebration of 75 years of exceptional craftsmanship with the second release of its 2024 ‘Made in Germany’ range – The LC Predator Mania Pearl.

The Predator Mania remains one of the most popular models in the Predator’s 30-year history, and the Pearl pays tribute to its place in goalscoring lore with a clean pearl and white colourway. The boot boasts the same aesthetic as the original Mania, but with the re-engineered outsole of the modern Predator 24 to ensure peak performance without sacrificing the iconic look. As a final nod to adidas expert craftmanship, the classic foldover tongue is adorned with a ‘Made in Germany’ sign-off.

Made in Germany

The LC Predator Mania Pearl has been crafted in adidas’ historic Scheinfeld factory, located a short distance from the brand’s Bavarian HQ in Herzogenaurach, Germany. Having originally been opened by Adi Dassler in 1959, Scheinfeld has been responsible for putting genre-defining performance footwear on some of the game’s greatest ever athletes, as well as millions of fans around the world.

The production team at Scheinfeld have been at the heart of its operations for 75 years, which is why adidas is putting members of the current team at the centre of its marketing campaign for the Made in Germany range. In a series of pictures and videos, adidas shines a light on these individuals’ meticulous work and their unending passion to produce some of the greatest football boots in history.

For the launch of the Predator Mania Pearl, they are joined in the campaign by Alessandro Del Piero, one of the most iconic players to wear the original boot.
