Speed boots that offer the natural benefits of a leather upper continue to be big players in the boot world. When speed meets comfort, you're certainly onto a winning formula! There is no denying that when it comes to natural materials, kangaroo leather is number one. The densely packed materials offer a softer and more comfortable feel while also being more durable.
So it's no surprise that the Puma v1 K Leather boot range has been a success! They have developed a track record for producing popular leather speed boots and their next generation v1's are looking to add to that growing reputation. Constructed from premium kangaroo leather, the new Puma v1.11 K Leather soccer shoes combine new v1.11 features with noticeable v1.10 similarities.
One of the main changes made to the new Puma v1.11 football boots is the introduction of the new lace-cover design. Held in place by an elastic strap and a TriHook fastener, the v1.11 lace cover ensures a snug fit that provides a smooth kicking area and unique look with the famous Puma cat arching across the front. The central lacing, which sits underneath the newly designed lace cover, makes the boot suitable for various foot-shapes.
The Puma v1.11 K Leather football boots are the third generation boot that uses the special UNI technology, where the upper material is stitched rather than glued to the sole, which marry's the boot together for a consistent fit. This combines with an anti-slip insert under the heel for a boot that will not only fit snug but will support the foot and prevent slippage.
After giving the new Puma v1.11 K Leather football boots the SoccerBible lab treatment, we can confirm that they tip the scales at just 225g (UK Size 8) - the same weight as their synthetic alternative! In comparison, the v1.11 K Leather weighs 50g more than the leather F50 adiZero and just 15g more than the Mercurial Superfly III.
The new Puma v1.11 K Leather soccer cleats enable greater stability through an external heel counter and a Pebax frame that provides support to the outsole. The midfoot area is reinforced with a TPU composite which secures further stability and helps to avoid midfoot bending.
This increased stability throughout the Puma v1.11 outsole also enables optimal traction as well as manoeuvrability. This is provided through the unique pointed stud configuration featured on the Puma v1.11. Unlike other speed boots, the Puma v1.11 series focuses on providing optimal speed through stability - giving you the confidence to be your fastest.
It's hard not to appreciate a quality leather speed boot when you see one and the new Puma v1.11 K Leather certainly fits that mould! The new Puma v1.11 is available to pre-order now ahead of a June 15th release. The leather upper means you'll have to pay more for the Puma v1.11 K with prices set around £160 GBP / $200 USD / €160 EURO.
