Puma drop gravity-defying Ultra SL 21 boots

Puma have launched the Ultra SL 21, an innovative new boot designed in a bid to to continue their quest to create the lightest, fastest boot in football.

Described by the footwear manufacturers as ‘gravity-defying’, the boot features multi-tone graphics inspired by the northern lights, while the specialised upper is made of thin woven mesh and coated with an advanced, ultra-thin TPU skin.

The materials used to create the boot mean they’re able to withstand explosive speeds and so are perfect for any of you jet-heeled wingers – and if you’re a cumbersome centre back then they’ll at least make you average speed.

The outsole has been produced using exclusive Pebax tooling technology to support energy shifts when you’re accelerating.

Basically, we can throw all the jargon we like at you, all you need to know is that all of the above is done with one ultimate goal in mind: lightning fast speed.

So, if you’re looking to gain the edge over your opponents and want something to give you the advantage when it comes to one-on-one sprints races, these could be just the boots for you.

Plus, they look absolutely quality, so even if you don’t feel like they make you any faster they’re still a solid buy in our eyes.

For those of you wanting to see what the boots look like when on, Barcelona star and World Cup winner Antoine Griezmann will be debuting them at Camp Nou on Saturday 6 March when Barça face Osasuna in their crucial La Liga clash.

Alternatively, if you’ve already got your heart set on a pair of them then and want to make sure they don’t sell out, the Ultra SL 2 are available to buy now and can be found on Puma’s official website, Puma stores and all leading football retailers.
