Launched in June 2026 as the latest installment in the ongoing 'atmos' and 'adidas Originals' special series based on the 'ZX 8000'—a collaboration that began in 2010—comes the 12th model, 'G-SNK12 “Predator”'. Rapper in-d from CreativeDrugStore has unveiled the track 'I got new shoes feat. ziproom' as the official image song for this iconic release.
This track is a collaborative effort with ziproom, a hip-hop collective formed by Arich and Shimon, who also served as models for the key visuals of the 'G-SNK12 “Predator”' alongside in-d. The track is produced by private land. Since the design inspiration for the 'G-SNK12 “Predator”' stems from the legendary football cleat 'Predator Mania', each of the three artists has woven their personal football memories, childhood recollections, and the exhilaration of wearing new sneakers into the lyrics.
Blending memories forged on the pitch, street-honed sensibilities, and hip-hop culture, this musical expression of the 'G-SNK12 “Predator”' universe will be available on all major music platforms starting July 15, 2026 (Wed) at 0:00.

Lyric
[Shimon]
I got new shoes
New shoes taking me to TOKIO
I got new shoes
Kobe, my hood, where I sometimes return
Memories from the pitch, now lyrics
The city I played in at 18
Standing on big stages
Friends who remain unchanged
I got new shoes, a geta box that transcends time
Muddy spikes and flow
Shoes and past I can't throw away
Tighten the laces so they won't come undone
Never stopping, off the ball
I got new shoes with my growth
I got new shoes with my growth
[in-d]
Can I kick it?
Not on grass, but in the studio, syncing beats
My childhood heroes were Zidane and Beckham
Stomping the ground at Nissin
Back then, I admired Predators more than New Era (and they suited me)
Winning Eleven, where Espimass was my favorite, matches lasted 10 minutes
'98, no memory, then obsessed 24/7
June's victory song, I won't forget (neva forget)
Dai Gorō Cut was shocking, not 4-back but flat three
2002, that was day 1
That's where I got hooked
At first, imitation, the other Sadio
Gradually developing my own style and like-minded friends
Lifting trophies together, fun as motivation
Always starts from there, not from sadness
[Arich]
Passion is my motivation, yo
From Kobe to Tokyo now
Even my mom says 'keep going'
So I can't do things halfway
Clumsy in everything except music
I don't make friends for use
Staying true, going beyond beyond beyond
No VAR in this life
The kids who gathered at the station
Heated up the neighborhood from Makuhari
Even if told, I couldn't just stay still
Creating or releasing shit while moving
First, build trust around me
Voices from outsiders, like mosquitoes
Dropping the lead to widen the gap
Holding hands with comrades
When I return home
Eating Chinese in Motomachi
Like Japan and Brazil
Day and night reversed
It's become part of my life
I'm carrying this
Pouring money and fun into this
Until my voice goes hoarse
I won't allow interruption
[adidas Originals ZX 8000 atmos G-SNK 12 “Predator”]
Among the 'Predator' football cleats—iconic since their 1994 debut and worn by legendary players—this model draws design inspiration from the beloved classic 'Predator Mania'. The upper features the signature black, red, and white color scheme of 'Predator Mania'. Black serves as the base, accented with red, while the side and heel three-stripes are rendered in white. Additionally, the heel includes the snake-skin pattern symbolic of 'G-SNK', along with a flap cover reminiscent of the iconic folded tongue of the 'Predator Mania'. By fusing two adidas classics, this sneaker elevates the passion born on the pitch into street culture.
