0% LEATHER. 110% KING - PUMA PHASES OUT K-LEATHER WITH INNOVATIVE K-BETTER TECHNOLOGY.

Sports company PUMA has redesigned its legendary KING football boot by introducing its new K-BETTER technology to deliver exceptional performance without kangaroo leather.

The PUMA KING has been worn by legendary players such as Johan Cruyff, Diego Maradona,Eusébio, Lothar Matthäus and Pelé, who dominated international football for decades. Now the KING is returning to the pitch supercharged with the latest PUMA technology and for the first time ever made with K-BETTER, a completely new, non-animal based upper material. The upper contains at least 20% recycled material as a step toward a better future.

K-BETTER has proven to outperform the previous KING K-Leather in testing for touch, comfort, and durability. PUMA is so convinced by the performance characteristics of K-BETTER that it will stop producing football boots with kangaroo leather altogether this year.

“The PUMA KING is PUMA’s most iconic franchise in football and has always stood for using the best materials and the latest in innovation. Over the years we have seen the boot evolve and become ingrained in on pitch and off pitch football culture, from the pitches to the terraces.” said Peter Stappen, Lead Product Line Manager Teamsport Footwear. “The new KING takes the franchise to the next-level and offers a super-soft upper with optimal stretch resistance for ultimate touch and control benefits.”
