The 2006 World Cup was in Germany, adidas’s home. A new Predator was inevitable.

The Absolute kept POWERPULSE, now with changeable sockliners so players could choose how the boot felt. It carried fewer rubber fins, for a cleaner look.

Zidane wore a white and gold Absolute in the final against Italy — the last match of his career.
