Football is becoming increasingly involved in social issues with the aim of raising the profile of certain groups and making people aware that a better world is possible. This is the philosophy behind the new Puma King Platinum football boots, which are made from materials free of animal products and by-products and guarantee animal welfare throughout the manufacturing process.
These Puma football boots are an update of the King Platinum silo, which follows the shape and design and retains some of the original materials of the model, but the entire upper has been changed from animal leather to synthetic leather, demonstrating the brand's ability to create something very similar to leather without the need to use animal products.
The main difference between this model and the in-line model is a series of perforations across the upper of these King Platinum Vegan football boots. We do not know if this is purely aesthetic, or if the brand has managed to improve the functionality of these football boots thanks to the use of synthetic raw materials. Be that as it may, the appearance of the King Platinum remains intact and, apart from these marks, no one would say that these are not natural leather football boots.
In terms of design, the colour chosen by the feline brand for the new Puma King Platinum Vegan is white. The knit area of the upper, which extends to the tongue, is also white, a characteristic feature of the new King Platinum, as are the laces. Moving on to the Puma logo on the side of the boots, this is dyed black, standing out against the light background.
Finally, we will discuss the sole, a characteristic feature of Puma King football boots. The German brand always sells its boots under the FG/AG nomenclature, allowing us to use them on both natural and artificial turf. In some models, it seems difficult to imagine that we will feel comfortable using these soles on synthetic surfaces, but in these Puma football boots, we really do believe that we are dealing with an FG/AG sole, as the shape, arrangement and size of the studs mean that we can use them on both surfaces. On this occasion, the plate is shown in an eye-catching lime colour, which adds a touch of informality to a sober and simple model.
That's all about the new Puma King Platinum Vegan football boots, a limited edition from the feline brand that is now available both in stores and on the Fútbol Emotion website.
