116 August 2015 www.bahrainthismonth.com Light and fast have become lighter and faster as PUMA introduces an innovative football boot — the evoSPEED SL. This newly revealed boot is a superlight evolution of the evoSPEED and is PUMA’s lightest match boot to date. The shoe is designed to give footballers a new game advantage enhancing speed and agility. Some of the world’s best players including Sergio Aguero, Marco Reus, Radamel Falcao, Marco Verratti, Antoine Griezmann and many more will sport the revolutionary playing footwear from now on. The majority of the radical weight reduction was achieved through the use of a super-light, almost translucent textile upper material. Whilst maintaining the necessary stability, the low weight PUMA Speedframe (a lightweight engineered support skeleton in the upper part of the shoe for more stability during fast movements) adds to the overall lightweight theme of the evoSPEED SL. Further essential support is given through a minimalist heel counter, which provides the foot with a snug fit. The traction studs support the players’ forward acceleration and enable better ground penetration. Combined with the five conical studs that are placed in the forefront and medial back end of the boot, change of direction and quick turns are radically improved. The outsole features the raised PUMA Speedtrack spine that further supports torsion when dribbling around opponents. The launch colour of the evoSPEED SL is lava blast, a bright red Pantone that was exclusively created for PUMA. “I am still amazed with how light these boots actually are,” says Sergio Aguero. “When the box with the boots was delivered to my house a few weeks ago for the first time, I thought the box was empty. This boot is a real step forward and PUMA has done a really impressive job creating it.” “This new boot is a real change to what we have been wearing before, it actually looks and feels like a totally new product,” says Marco Reus. “They are so light, you can almost not feel them, and still I feel they give me exactly that support I need to have from a boot. This is a whole new direction of boot design.” The evoSPEED SL will be officially launched on the pitch worn by PUMA players and will be available for purchase from this month at the PUMA store in City Centre Bahrain.
