Today’s players are not good at one thing. They are good at a lot of things. With that in mind, global sports brand PUMA launches the PUMA ONE football boots that delivers the needs of all football players in one perfect boots.To begin with, PUMA consulted UEFA Euro 2016’s Best Player and Golden Boot winner, Antoine Griezmann, youth academy players and football obsessed teens to understand their definitions of a perfect boot.
From there, it was abundantly clear that most footballers including Griezmann himself wanted a boot that had a great FIT, helped to move FAST and gave more FEEL on the ball.To complete the process, PUMA brought former Arsenal FC superstar Thierry Henry on board to play a major role in ensuring the all-new boots catered to every type of player.
With such strong research and insights, PUMA has delivered a football boot that excels in FIT, FAST and FEEL. FIT comes from the engineered evoKNIT sock, FAST is provided by the ultra-lightweight Pebax outsole, whilst FEEL is enhanced by the super soft leather that adorns the upper.
In conjunction with the launch of PUMA ONE in Malaysia, PUMA launched ‘The Perfect ONE Challenge’ that will be going on a month-long tour across 4 different locations in Kuala Lumpur (TFC Store LOT 10, 7-9 July), Johor Bahru (Komtar JBCC, 14-17 July), Penang (Queensbay Mall, 21-23 July) and Klang Valley (Sunway Pyramid, 28-30 July).
