Here's the highly anticipated next release for the Nike CTR360 Maestri football boots. A boot that since its launch back on the 1st October, has been taking football pitches around the globe by storm!
The list of players who have converted to the Nike CTR360 Maestri football boots certainly makes for impressive reading, and are a testament to the performance attributes of the CTR's. Since their release we've seen such players as Cesc Fabregas, Andres Iniesta, Sergio Aguero, Javier Mascherano, Rafael van der Vaart, James Milner, Florent Malouda, Fernando Gago and Ashley Cole impressing in this brand new boot range.
The new white/silver/neptune blue colourway is a great look, for this revolutionary football boot. The Nike CTR360's have an innovative design to take ball control to the next level - by assisting a player to win the ball, keep control and distribute the ball. All performance attributes that have made these football boots particularly popular with playmaking midfielders.
The upper of the Nike CTR360 Maestri football boots is made from a synthetic Kanga-Lite material, developed by Nike this material gives the same ball touch and feel of a natural K leather. But with the added benefit of being a more durable material that absorbs 20% less water than a natural leather, which also means the boot will remain lightweight in wet conditions.
The stand-out design features of the Nike CTR360 Maestri football boots are the dampening pods, which have cushioning properties to improve ball control. Whilst passing is more direct and accurate due to the pods forming around the ball when struck because of the shape-correcting memory foam. Complimenting the pods is a pass pad on the in-step of the boots, again strategically placed to assist ball control and passing accuracy.
The white/silver/neptune blue editions are available in a firm ground sole-plate, another area of the boot that Nike have paid particular attention to. Designed with a unique stud configuration to improve movement, the studs are dual-density at the fore of the boot to help with trap control and improve ball grip. Whilst at the heel of the boot, the studs are sharper and stronger, to lock down the planted foot whilst the other controls, strikes or passes the ball.
In our opinion the Nike CTR360 Meastri football boots are one of the most comfortable boots on the market, and are a boot that can genuinely be worn straight from the box onto the pitch. Combined with the performance elements of this boot, is a comfy padded collar, a Porin insert sockliner and unique lacing system which improves fit while enhancing the ball strike area. This good looking and pioneering football boot is available to pre-order now, and is expected to be released 1st February for around £120 GBP.
