🪶 Lightweight Build, Premium Feel
- Full-grain Kangaroo leather on the forefoot and instep offers the signature comfort and touch that made the Speciali a legend.
- Microfibre upper across the rest of the boot reduces weight while maintaining structural integrity and durability
🧵 Engineered Stitching for Fit & Control
- Strategic stitching shapes and supports the leather toe box.
- Integrated ‘A’ frame construction ensures a snug, adaptive fit through the midfoot.
- A newly introduced Control Zone on the inner foot enhances ball handling by absorbing excess energy for sharper control.
⚙️ Outsole Innovation for Dynamic Play
- A lightweight TPU outsole features a flex-zone across the toes for explosive toe-off and acceleration.
- A reinforced midfoot bar adds torsional stability, while a new injection insole boosts support in the heel and midsole.
🦶 Hybrid Stud Configuration
- Four heel blades replace traditional conical studs for improved traction and stability.
- Conical forefoot studs remain for rotational agility—ideal for quick turns and multidirectional play.
- This hybrid setup is a favorite across speed, power, and control silos in modern football boots.
