The Umbro Speciali Elite epitomises everything this classic heritage boot stands for. Class, elegance and quality, these boots are chosen by those players who favour simple elegance over modern designs...
The Umbro Speciali Elite boots boast the highest grade of 100% original Italian K leather. They offer the ultimate in comfort and feel, the Speciali Elite is a traditional yet subtle integration of unparalleled style and state of the art technology. Umrbo have reverted back to the original black and white colourway of this iconic boot after some interesting colour variations last season. These truley are the pinnacle of classic Umbro heritage football boots.
The Umbro Speciali football boots have been in existence for a number of years now, but this latest incarnation seems to have made a big impression with the players. Last season, the Speciali boots had a massivley successful campaign all across Europe. Here at the SoccerBible we were fortunate enough to interview Deco and Darren Bent, both players highlighted the comfort and softness of the boot, how great it fits and how it adapts to your feet to provide excellent ball touch.
The upper of the Umbro Speciali football boots is constructed from 100% super-soft kangaroo leather, the best natural leather available because the material's fibres are densely packed. The benefits of which, are not just the suppleness of the leather and comfort, but also the durability of the material. Further prolonged by the Speciali's unique stitching patterns, which hold the leathers shape and maintain performance. They also feature a newly engineered toe box which offers more room and feel than ever before on a Speciali.
Complimenting the soft upper and central lacing system is Umbro's unique 'A' frame design, probably the stand-out feature of the Speciali football boots, and finished with a white/sliver trim. The 'A' frames are on both sides of the boots and wrap around the foot to lock the solid heel counter into position, ensuring the support and good fit needed during movement and ball striking.
The Umbro Speciali football boots have gained a loyal following in the football world. There are a host of top players across the globe currently wearing Umbro Speciali football boots - including Pepe, John Terry, Michael Owen, Diego Capel and Darren Bent.
Another one of the Speciali's main features are the Flex grooves in the mid-sole. The idea of these are to offer even more flexibility throughout the sole for added comfort and stability. Umbro also pride themselves on the Specialis new and improved insole board. Strength, support and torsional rigidity are all benefits received from this.
These new Umbro Speciali Elite football boots have gone down really well here at SoccerBible HQ. The super-soft 100% K-Leather truly has to be felt to be appreciated. You can get your hands on a pair of these iconic boots for around £120 GBP from selected retailers.
