Today, adidas unveils the ‘Chaos vs Control’ pack, reigniting the on-pitch rivalry between the speed-driven F50 and the precision-engineered Predator. Designed for football’s biggest moments, the pack will take centre stage during the closing stages of the FIFA World Cup 2026.
The Predator Elite FT arrives in a striking white colourway, featuring solar turbo stripes and black accents. The boot features a NANOSTRIKE+, a reimagined mesh upper combining softness, lightness, and integrated grip elements for striking precision. The iconic FOLD-OVER TONGUE delivers an optimal striking surface, while the STRIKEFRAME soleplate enhances traction and rotational agility. The POWERSPINE provides added midfoot stability for more powerful strikes.
The F50, engineered for speed, features a white base with solar purple stripes and solar turbo accents. Built for players who thrive in chaos, the F50 is designed to unlock game-breaking pace and chaos.
The F50 Elite includes a FIBERTOUCH UPPER offering lightweight support and cushioning only where needed, alongside SPRINTWEB, a high-definition 3D texture for enhanced ball control at high speed. The COMPRESSIONFIT TUNNEL TONGUE ensures lockdown for multidirectional movement, while SPRINTFRAME 360 maximises acceleration and speed in every direction.
The pack continues adidas’ ongoing invitation to players across the globe to ‘choose one’ — Chaos or Control. Predator is built for those who dictate the game with control, precision, and composure, while F50 is for those who create chaos.
The F50 Elite R 4 999 and Predator Elite Fold-Over Tongue R 5 999 will be available from July 30 th at selected retail stores and online at adidas.co.za.
Completing the pack, adidas also introduces updated colourways for the F50 Sparkfusion and Copa franchises, extending the latest design expression across additional performance silos.
