We don't often think this about a football boot, but we definitely, definitely need to own these.

All the Sunday League warriors out there will know that if there's one thing that can give your game a boost, at least for a few weeks, it's a beautiful, shiny new pair of boots.

Of course, few boots would be as amazing as a pair of original Predators, but Adidas have just released the next best thing: a limited edition retro version of that classic boot from 1994, and it is a stunning thing to behold.

Being a replica of the first pair of boots we were ever bought as a child, there's a huge nostalgic element to our desire to get these, but that doesn't make them any less cool.

Here's the bad news though: they're exclusive to Pro Direct Soccer, there are only 1825 pairs available in the world, and they will set you back £260 (around €325), so if you do end up buying them, then you could never, ever wear them outside. Well, unless you make it to a cup final or something.

The Man-Cave is accepting donations to help us scrape together the coins to buy a pair, so please send one dollar to 'Happy Dude, 742, Evergreen Terrace'...
