David Beckham to endorse new Adidas football boot
MUMBAI: A few days ago British soccer great David Beckham presented his new Adidas Predator boots at the recently opened adidas Sport Performance Store on Broadway as well as at football shoot-out at Brooklyn Bridge in New York.
The new international David Beckham range will feature a dragon design element that was inspired by Modern Asia. David wore his new Dragon Predator Pulse for the first time in England’s friendly game against Colombia a few days ago.
Beckham said, “I always enjoy being in New York and launching the Adidas dragon range here is going to be a great experience. The boots feel great and I think they look absolutely amazing.”
The Chinese Dragon symbolises power, excellence and vitality. A dragon overcomes obstacles until success is his. It is energetic, decisive, optimistic, intelligent and ambitious. Its benevolence signifies greatness, goodness and blessings. This special Predator Pulse is part of Beckham’s exclusive product range with his signature logo.
