Until now we have all awed at the design of the Puma v1.10 football boots, and their innovative use of synthetic materials. But with this release of a kangaroo leather Puma v1.10 football boot, we can really see whether the design will hold its own in the world of leather football boots.
Speed football boots made with a leather upper are quite a rare occurrence, the likes of the Vapor and F50 thrive using synthetic uppers, but the Puma v1 range has always had a track record for releasing popular leather editions.
There is no denying that as far as natural materials are concerned, kangaroo leather is the number one material. This is because the fibres of the material are more densely packed, so as well as being soft and comfortable, the K leather is durable. And as the material is soft and comfortable, the boots upper offers a great touch and feel for the ball.
When you try the K Leather Puma v1.10 football boots on, they not only fit very well but are extremely comfortable. This is not just because of Puma's AptoLast, which they've carried over from the v1.08 football boots, but also because of the redesigned collar and central lacing which now has a soft leather and material tongue.
The toe area and lace-cover are held together by a thermo-plastic
material which maintains the boots shape and structure. And the two
pieces combine brilliantly for ball touch and control, and the kangaroo
leather gives you great feel for the ball when you pass short or long,
and when you strike the ball.
The K leather Puma v1.10 football boots retain the v1's speed technology
through the unique outsole. The outsole provides a solid and stable
heel counter made from TPU material, and moulds into the sole-plate.
Which has a unique stud configuration mounted on a lightweight frame,
and shaped for smooth ground penetration to optimise traction. Embedded
into the forefoot is a carbon-fibre plate, positioned to distribute
pressure and react to the foot flexing, which assists movement and
acceleration.
As these new v1.10 football boots are made from a kangaroo leather they do cost £10 GBP more than the synthetic boots, so they should cost around £130 GBP. But for your money, you are purchasing a boot with a proven speed outsole that will assist your movement and response around the pitch, and has an upper made from the proven number one boot material as far as ball touch, control and feel are concerned. And just to add a touch of finesse, Puma have given these new v1.10 football boots a classy white and red colourway.
