ADIDAS +Predator Absolute: review


-----------------------------------------------------
Brief-crap: Happen that we went to Sunway and stumbled upon this weird looking Egyption fortune-teller machine. We each put our own hands to see what the results were. At first we laughed it off, but later what happened really made me think twice. O_O.. spooky..
-----------------------------------------------------

Absolute-ly gorgeous


Again, festive season is coming.. Chinese New Year will be here to knock at your doors on the coming weeks of February. Not to forget, my b'day is coming really soon, but not as soon as when i received this..

An ADIDAS +Predator Absolute..

It comes in a simple exterior, red on top, black beneath.. but what lies in it is breath-taking..

Fearsome-looking shoebox

Slowly I reveal the contents.. Beneath the crimson red top lies a bag with a vicious looking 'Predator' engraved printed on it..

'Grrrr... how dare you wake me from my lengthy-sleep??!'

I opened further.. I realised that inside the hideous and vicious looking 'Predator' bag lies a pair of crimson-red football boots, just like its cover, with white and infamous '3-stripes' by its side..

'Peekaboo...'

The more I fantasize, the more I think about the awakening of a crimson vampire awaking from his sleep.. It may not be as fearsome looking as my imagination, but I really have to say I am impressed by myself to be able to relate such stupid thoughts during the process of unleashing my pair of Predators..

'Taaa daaa...'

I've got several boots of this range, a pair of F50, Predator Pulse, Nike Tiempo Mystic(the second grade), and several other boots which I forgot the name, and out of all, I think this is the sweetest one.. Maybe because it is the latest, but heck, when i put it on, I can instantly feel its comfort..

To hit it hard and powerful or to get the weights off? Hmmm...

It comes with two sockliners, one with an extra weight of 20 grams, which theoretically says will give you extra power for your kicks, which the other is the lightweight one, which makes the Predator one of the lightest boots of its kind..


Without the sockliner, you can see your fish swimming in your boot.. How cool?

It also comes with some care-guide for the boots, like what you should and shouldn't do with the RM 699.90 footwear..


Rule 21: Do not leave boots out where it is exposed to potential pet gnawing and chewing..

Of course, this pair of boots don't come cheap.. I went to the retails in Berjaya Times Square, and paid some hard cash of RM 700 just to see the cashier giving me a 10 cents change back.. Inflation... Inflation...


It looks good anywhere, on kitchen floors, bedroom parquets and even without onion leaves topping..

Compared with its predecessor, the new Absolute is really impressive.. My previous Predator Pulses were good, but this just stands on a class of its own...


An opened can of 'woop-ass'..

Overall I have yet to rate this boot for the recent weather condition was too bad to put it on its first test.. But by far, i would say that it is a must for crazy Predator lovers who wants to up their game and of course, have some extra cash to spend.. As for me, I will have to thank Uncle Lim from Genting who made my B'day wish came through.. earlier than I've thought..

TRB: Person of The Month!!!

-----------------------------------------------
Short-talk: As I know, lots of babies popped out during the month of February. So i would like to dedicate this post to all B'day guys and girls.. Violet (5th), Hannah (6th; if you see this), Myself (LOL, 10th.. remember guys..) and Valentino Kuan (Shu Yuan to be exact, 14th).. Happy Birthday!!!
-----------------------------------------------


Ladies and gentlemen... don't be fooled by this innocent looking picture.. it may send you misleading messages, especially where it concerns with age..

Which is why, Person of the Month for February goes to... Ms. Violet, who also happens to be the B'day Girl of the month!!

Look, ponies may be too big for her.. So get her something more suitable..

Heck, if i was placed side by side with her, i would be definitely be the one to be said much much older than this 'little girl'.. but in fact it is... umm.. not entirely true.. (oops.. i think i revealed too much there...)

Anyway, the main point is just for me to wish her..

HAPPY BIRTHDAY...

Same goes to the rest of the Februarians, including myself..

Even 'M' is too big... get 'S' size of the frog for her please..

And i would like to personally thank Uncle Lim from Genting for giving me a pair of Predator for my Birthday.. LOL

At the same time, Happy Valentines to all of you out there.. don't forget to say 'I Love You' to your loved ones...
