adidas Launches the First Ever Knitted Football Boot

Knitted shoes are becoming a standard sight on running routes these days. You can soon add football fields too, as adidas has launched the world's first knitted football boot. The adidas Samba Primeknit combines the comfort and responsiveness of playing barefoot with the support and protection needed to play football at the highest levels.

The shoes  feature an upper that is knitted from heel-to-toe, with the material still retaining the strength of a conventional boot. This knitted upper provides maximum flexibility and comfort on the top. The yarn used also receives a high precision coating that guarantees water resistance on the pitch.

adidas has also mentioned that the one-layer upper was constructed with "zones" (similar to the Predator Lethal Zones?), which will provide the ball control needed.

An added bonus - the one-piece upper is constructed without any wastage of material. This makes the Samba Primeknit adidas' most sustainable football boot and the start of a revolution in football footwear.

The adidas Samba Primeknit is available from March 17th for purchase in selected adidas retail outlets, associated stockists and via www.adidas.com/football.
