Upper
The unique design of the Puma v1.08's mean an off-centred lacing system increases the contact and kicking area, which not only improves pressure distribution to reduce forces from ball impact but also enhances ball control and touch.
The upper material is a thin lightweight textile material reinforced with microfibre to increase protection and durability. Finished with a grip texture the microfibre v1.08 boots create additional friction which assists ball control as well as increasing power and swerve.
The K-leather v1.08 football boots follow the same design as the microfibre option with the improved contact area, but benefit from the natural properties of kangaroo leather.
