With the men’s Team GB football team beginning their quest for gold at the London 2012 Olympic Games later today, Sport-locker.net are well and truly back in the football spirit.

A mood which was only heightened when a shiny new pair of adidas Predator LZ football boots turned up at our office for us to playtest!

And on first impression, they look and feel incredible – especially the five Lethal Zones on the boot!

Supporting the five lethal zones is a newly engineered Hybridtouch upper which combines the benefits of leather and synthetic – comfort, stability, reduced water uptake and the highest quality feel in all weather conditions.  

The boot also integrates the revolutionary Sprint Frame outsole construction featured in the adizero 50, offering the perfect balance between light weight (225g) and stability as well as the Traxion 2.0 stud configuration which ensures maximum grip and acceleration.

We’ll be putting the revolutionary boots through their paces over the next few weeks, so keep you eyes peeled on Sport-locker.net for the full written review.
