Umbro UX-2 "Black/White/Dazzling Blue" : Football Boots : Soccer Bible

Famed for their rich footballing soul, Umbro have dipped their relentless UX-2 into fresh paint. Still drying its sophisticated tones smack down with a tasteful silhouette. Plenty of shine with subtle tones, there's a razzle as well as dazzle.

Holding efficient though energised style among the Umbro ranks, the UX-2 is a boot for the enlightened connoisseur of football cuisine. The new "Black/White/Dazzling Blue" colourway is one that brings together a tasteful twosome. A more traditional black out boot with more than a shimmer of tenacity — it is style and performance well entwined as this has all the essential mod-cons not to mention some serious character to boot.

This latest sibling from the growing UX-2 family is one that adds engineered variety to the pitch. Dominated with a technical make up for the dominating player, it's a contemporary creation that stays true to the high standards set out by its predecessor. The objective is to produce the boot for that engine room of a player who crafts, grafts and shifts the creative cogs.

Made up of light, breathable material, its one piece upper has been produced to carry the strength needed to withstand tackles while being soft enough to retain that crucial feel for the ball. As well as that, the re-engineered A-Frame offers stability and security. Embracing new technologies to enable this boot to meet the high demands of the modern game, the 'touch control zone' has been 3D printed for maximum grip. Supporting the boot, the spine of any good piece of performance wear, the UX-2 is underpinned with a dual density heel counter with integrated flex spine to cushion the heel and safeguard your achilles.

With more sole, more swagger and a bright blend of blue delights, the laces will live long in this one. You can bag them, here.
