Long before Messi kept his World Cup hot streak running, and the USA squad shot its way out of the group stage, the sneaker industry’s World Cup fever started with a triple-collab preview from Brain Dead, Disney, and adidas. Now, while the globe battles it out for soccer supremacy, Brain Dead and the Magic Kingdom’s take on the Predator is here and ready to stomp.
Starting with a mix of black leather with rubber-studded texture paneling across the toebox and side panels, the Predator adds angular three stripes in white on either side of the black tongue and laces. The upper is a carefully curated take on a classic, but it's the sole that draws the eye. Converted from a soccer-ready cupsole to a Dr. Marten-style boot, the new collab silhouette could easily fit any of the OG Disney cartoon characters.
In addition to the US take on the overseas term boots (that means soccer cleats in Europe), the triple-collab adds a folded-over tongue like any other soccer boot. The pair finishes with a selection of custom enamel pins from Brain Dead and Disney attached to the folded tongue. After a bit of a delay, the pair is finally getting set to drop before the month is up.
The Brain Dead x Disney x adidas World Cup Collection will be released June 29, 2026 through adidas and select retailers online and in-store. The Predator sneaker will be available in unisex sizing for $200, while the clothing ranges from $25 to $200, depending on the item.
