The new Umbro Chaleira II Pro is already on display in the best futsal halls around the world, and this is no coincidence. This range has become a key part of many teams’ kit in the LNFS, considered the world’s best futsal league.
Umbro Chaleira II Pro
This new generation of the Chaleira is not just another pair of shoes. On numerous occasions, we have highlighted it as one of the best options for playing futsal during the 2018/19 season. As is the case in any professional sport, there are brands that already dominate the sector and have established themselves firmly. However, Umbro seems set to take them on with this new generation of its flagship futsal range. We’re talking about a shoe with a very clear focus: control, power and precision. Three qualities that any futsal player looks for in their shoes.
The upper is made primarily from natural leather. However, we can also see how new technologies are increasingly being combined with classic materials. That is why this model also incorporates synthetic elements which, together with the top-quality natural leather, allow the shoe to mould perfectly to the foot. The result is an excellent fit, a very pleasant feel on the ball and a lightness that is noticeable from the very first moment. All this is complemented by a toe cap protected and reinforced with abrasion-resistant material – a standard feature that should be present in all futsal shoes.
The main difference compared to the first generation of this boot lies in its structure. Built on the same base, it now features a completely redesigned chassis that is more reinforced and tailored to the demands of futsal – a sport that subjects both the boots and the players themselves to considerable wear and tear due to its constant changes of pace and rapid transitions.
As this is a high-top shoe, it features an EVA rubber sole that provides greater shock absorption. As for the sole design, we believe the choice has been spot on. Its segmented structure and the various transverse flex lines facilitate rapid changes of direction, which is essential on a futsal pitch. All of this translates into an excellent feeling of cushioning and comfort from the moment you first put them on.
