Puma King & King SL Football Boots - White/Black/Ocean - Football Boots

Puma extend their re-energised King collection with another stylish colour drop. The new White/Black/Ocean design arrives as PUMA's fourth addition to the 2012/13 King line. A fresh black & white boot brought to life with two helpings of 'Ocean' & red combines everything that's classic and modern about today's King.

The King still holds its place as one of the all time classics. Seen as the boot choice for football traditionalists, the new design boasts modern technologies that keep the King relevant. One look at their professional roster tells you all you need to know.





Recent convert Nemanja Vidic leads an impressive line-up of King wearers that includes Arsenal's Mikel Arteta, Manchester United duo Michael Carrick and Phil Jones, Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure and Bayern Munich's Brazilian defender Dante.  





The PUMA King SL strips everything back to a boot that weighs a super-slender 171g – a seriously lightweight boot. The upper is constructed using a Japanese premium microfibre material with leather like properties.  

The standard edition PUMA King has been reworked to deliver a lighter boot than previous generations, weighing just over the 200g mark. For the upper, PUMA stay true to everyone’s favourite aspect of the King. The boot upper, made from a super-soft premium leather, adapts to the natural curves of the foot for a glove-like fit.





The King's reputation for fit and touch has never wavered - you'll struggle to find a finer leather boot in the game. The central lacing combines with a new performance tongue. The short, perforated 3D tongue ensures a closer touch and perfect fit.





The lightweight Pebax outsole uses a mix of conical and traction studs to ensure a good balance between flexibility, grip and manoeuvrability, while the external heel counter with classic KING branding gives improved heel fit and stability – perfect for protecting you from those crunching tackles on the heel.

PUMA also continue with their AptoLast technology system which helps the boot conform to the natural shape of the foot, providing a snug fit which improves over time as the boot shapes itself to the foot. Don't expect a long break-in period with this boot.  





The bespoke sole unit used on the PUMA King features optimum lightweight technology with a pebax and nylon outsole. A newly engineered stud configuration offers better grip and manoeuvrability while a more refined external heel counted provides the required level of protection and stability.
