Milestones – Puma V1.06

In 2006 Puma really got back to the fight with Nike and Adidas. Puma presented the v1.06 which was the lightest boot Puma ever made. Some great players wore them such as Samuel Eto’o, Robert Pires, Alexander Hleb and Fredrik Ljungberg. 

Puma used a so called “Scholler ConTec”
upper material which made the boot light and gave close to bare foot feel. To increase the bare foot feel puma reshaped the front of the foot and used “Puma Lace Wrap System” to ensure a optimal fit.  

To reduce even more weight Puma used carbon fibre in the soleplate, which gave more flexibility and strength. Puma v1.06 had also a stud pattern that was different from the other brands, especially the studs in the heel was designed for speed.

Thank you for reading! Will soon continue selling some boots so stay tuned!

Puma King Menotti Star

Puma King Menotti Star only 511 pairs made.

The boots are a remake of a special edition Puma King which was released to honour Argentina winning the 1978 World Cup title. The boots were named after the Argentine coach César Luis Menotti who led his team to win the first ever titel!

The boot is more like a luxury edition of Puma King. High quality k-leather giving a soft touch to the ball and adding comfort. The soleplate was also kept same looking as back in 1978, all-white look adds some class!

Bought these as a bargain for only £58! 😉

Year of 2006 was a great year!

What comes to football boots the year of 2006 was a superb year for many brands! 

  
Nike released the Mercurial Vapor III, maybe the best Vapor ever made. Adidas continued their Predator range with the Absolute and introduced the F50.6 Tunit. Puma made a comeback with the Puma v1.06, and really competed once again with Nike and Adidas!

 
I bet we all have some memories back in 2006? If so please share the moments!

Which is your favourite among these speed boots?

Puma SL Classico Fg

New addition to my collection! Puma SL Classico Fg limited to 2001 pairs in world! A classy looking boot and when it first came out last year I knew I need to buy these some day. I bought them as brand new for £48 😁  

Puma evoSpeed 1.3

These Puma evoSpeed 1.3 were not a limited release, neither a rare boot, just a public version! The thing I like about these is the colour and beautiful leather stiching 👌🏻 I bought them for a bargain price 39.99£ brand new in box. A big bonus was that they are a “salesmen sample”!

They were made after first Enzo Ferrari 815. Next is Puma evoSpeed 1 SL Ducati, limited to 655 pairs. Last is Puma evoSpeed 1.2M 535 BMW, limited to 535 pairs.
All of the three boots are really light, they have used carbonfibre in the soleplates. Hope you enjoy the pic!

Puma King Luxury Edition 622 of 999

A real bargain! Found these Puma King Luxury Edition Limited to 999 pairs woldwide.These are numbered 622 and I got them for 45£! In my opinion great looking boots. The boot is made from luxuriously soft K-leather, and looks a bit like footballboot “royalty” with the black and gold touch.
