Twenty-five years after David Beckham’s famous free kick against Greece, adidas is marking the anniversary with two Predator boots inspired by the footwear he wore during England’s 2001 World Cup qualifier.

The anniversary falls on October 6, the date in 2001 when Beckham scored a stoppage-time free kick at Old Trafford to earn England a 2-2 draw with Greece. The result secured England’s place at the 2002 FIFA World Cup after Germany drew with Finland in the group’s other final qualifier.

The new release includes the David Beckham Predator and the Predator Precision Remade. Both use the white-and-red color scheme associated with Beckham’s boots from the 2001 match while incorporating elements of adidas’ current Predator line.

The David Beckham Predator was co-designed with Beckham and draws from the latest Predator Elite FT L-Tech concept. It combines a premium leather forefoot with modern performance technology. A red leather fold-over tongue carries an embroidered Trefoil, while Trefoil logos appear within the Three Stripes on both sides of the boot. Beckham branding is also placed on the lateral heel.

The Trefoil appears for only the second time on a Predator, following Beckham’s 2024 special-edition model. According to adidas, that release sold out within 24 hours.

The Predator Precision Remade offers a closer recreation of the boot associated with Beckham’s 2001 free kick. It reproduces the white-and-red design of the original Predator Precision while using updated football-boot technology. The release is designed to connect the original model with today’s Predator range and is available to both players and collectors.

The free kick itself remains one of Beckham’s most significant moments with England. Greece had taken a 2-1 lead, leaving England needing a draw to secure qualification if Germany failed to beat Finland. Beckham did not know the result of the Germany match when he stepped up to take the free kick.

He struck the ball into the top corner in stoppage time, leveling the match and sending England to the World Cup. The goal also came three years after Beckham’s red card against Argentina at the 1998 World Cup, an incident that had made him the focus of intense criticism in England.

The new Predator release links that moment to one of the most recognizable boot designs of Beckham’s playing career. Rather than simply reproducing an old model, adidas has used the anniversary to combine the visual details associated with the 2001 Predator Precision with technology from its current football range.

Both models are available through select adidas retail stores and adidas’ football site.

Every season comes with a new trend update and the Fall 2026 collections has given us plenty to work with. After fashion weeks in New York, London, Milan and Paris, designers offered different takes on what the new season could look like, from oversized tailoring to earthy colors and heavy textures.

Celebrities and street-style regulars have also started picking up some of these looks, making them easier to spot outside the runway. Some of these trends are familiar pieces with a slightly different way of wearing them, while others are making a return this season. Here are seven trends you can expect to see everywhere this fall.

Oversized Tailoring

If there is one category that always finds its way into every fall wardrobes, it is tailoring. This season, the proportions are getting bigger with oversized jackets. The recent Saint Laurent show during Paris Fashion Week was a good example of the trend, where several celebrities in the front row also leaned into the house’s oversized tailoring, including Hailey Bieber, who wore a loose black blazer with matching trousers.

The easiest way to style the trend is to balance the larger pieces with something fitted underneath. An oversized blazer can work with a slim knit and straight trousers, while a long tailored jacket can be worn over a simple top and jeans.

Puddle Jeans

Jeans are one of those wardrobe staples that work all year round, but the way we wear them tends to change with each season. Sometimes an older silhouette comes back into rotation, while other seasons bring a new shape or styling detail to the forefront. For fall, one of the denim styles getting attention is the puddle jean.

The style is wide and deliberately long, with enough extra fabric to gather around the shoes. Instead of ending neatly at the ankle like the usual style, rather, the hem pools around the feet, hence puddle jeans. For styling, try them with a fitted knit or tucked-in top to balance the loose shape. Pointed-toe shoes, boots, loafers and sneakers can also work underneath the long hem.

Moss Green

Fall usually brings shades like brown and black, or even neutrals, but moss green is giving the usual autumn palette some competition. The earthy shade appeared as part of the season’s interest.

Houses like Dries Van Noten and Erdem leaned into green and brown tones, using them alongside dark floral patterns. For everyday dressing, moss green can be incorporated through a coat, knit, skirt or trousers. You can pair them with colors like brown and cream.

Layering

A thin knit under a relaxed blazer or a cardigan thrown over a dress can work for this season. Fall dressing naturally has to do with layering because of the weather. Across the runway, designers like Prada and Louis Vuitton showed how styling and layering can change the way familiar pieces look. Think vintage lace, cardigans and skirts worn with oversized leather jackets, chunky knits and flat shoes. The idea is to mix different weights and textures.

Ballet Flats

Ballet flats remain a key footwear trend for Fall 2026, but the way they are being worn makes them work for cooler weather. Wool socks, trousers, and heavier outerwear gives the delicate shoes a more autumn-ready setting.

Pair ballet flats with puddle jeans and a sweater, or wear them with a midi skirt and a coat. The shoes can also work with socks peeking out above the flats for a more layered feminine look.

Fur

Fur is one of those pieces that are suitable for the cooler months, and you do not need a full-length coat to try it out. A fur jacket or a coat with a fur collar can give you the texture you are looking for.

For styling, a fur jacket can be worn with jeans and a fitted top, leggings and a sweater, or even over a dress. Boots, loafers and heels can all work depending on the rest of the outfit and how dressed up you want to look.

Checks

Checks come in plenty of variations, from small, closely spaced prints to larger patterns that are much more noticeable. That gives you different ways to bring the print into your wardrobe without having to wear the same type of check every time.

A checked shirt can be paired with jeans and loafers for a day to day outfit, while a checked blazer can work with tailored trousers, skirt or denim. You can also wear a checked coat over a dress with boots.

Zendaya has officially launched her second co-created collection with On, continuing her collaboration with the sportswear brand and longtime stylist Law Roach. The new collection debuted globally on October 1 and brings python print technical sportswear and a new Mary Jane-inspired sneaker into the latest lineup.

The collection was introduced through an action movie-inspired campaign directed by Argentine trio Pantera. The short film follows Zendaya as she battles a group of women trying to take her down, moving through building-scale action scenes and martial arts sequences. Roach also makes a cameo in the film, coming to Zendaya’s aid as she tries to escape her pursuers.

On Chief Marketing Officer Alex Griffin said cinematic storytelling has been a cornerstone of the partnership with Zendaya from the beginning. He added that the latest campaign was created to go beyond traditional advertising while keeping movement at the heart of the story.

Among the collections, python print appears across several pieces, including a form-fitting bodysuit, a long-sleeved top and a half-zip anorak. It also includes oversized crewnecks and matching sweatpants with ruching and adjustable bungee-cord details. The Odyssey star mentioned how “Each season we’re elevating everyday basics. With this collection, we had fun with a python print that acts like a modern camo.”

The footwear lineup includes the Cloudnova Moon in a new Mary Jane-inspired silhouette. It features an engineered knit upper and speed laces that comes in three colorways: Clove/Ivory, Dew/Antler and Black/Ivory. Zendaya said the team wanted to create a flat that felt technical but still looked cool, adding that the shoe is light and simple despite the details in its construction.

The collection is available through On’s website and stores globally, with pop-ups also being installed in Los Angeles, Paris, Tokyo and Chengdu.
