KIPSTA 3D AIR MESH TECHNOLOGY: THE LOWDOWN!
Because good passing starts with feeling good in your football boots, we created the Kipsta 3D Air Mesh technology.
It is more comfortable, provides better ball feel, more durable, and makes your boot more breathable. The forefoot (the part of the foot most in contact with the ball) of our Viralto III football boots is made with this technology, offering excellent ball feel.
ECO-DESIGN: WHAT DOES THIS MEAN AT DECATHLON?
To determine a theoretical life span for our products, we go through a rigorous procedure of lab tests and long lasting trials on the pitch to compare products of the same type, used for the same purpose. By identifying any weak points, we can improve the product design in order to prolong its theoretical life span.
This approach enabled us to increase the life span by 30% compared with the average life span of a family of products.
FLEX-H AND DUAL HARDNESS TECHNOLOGIES: WHAT ARE THEY?
In order to provide you with optimum flexibility for sudden changes of direction and push-offs, mad dashes and between-the-lines passes, we use the following two technologies: The first, Flex-H, on the front of the outsole, allows the sole to bend following the shape of a horizontal "H". The second, Dual Hardness, combines TPU with different hardness properties, providing more flexibility or support depending on the targeted zone.
"SAFE CARE": FOOTBALL BOOTS THAT PUT YOUR FEET FIRST: DO THEY EVEN EXIST?
We designed these football boots together with a podiatrist specializing in sports and professional football. Together, we designed and validated the various technologies and concepts used in these football boots. For example, when creating the outsole, the number of studs, their rounded shape, and their positions on the boot, were specifically researched and designed to ensure the best balance of grip and comfort.
"OPTIMAL STRIKE ZONE": WHAT IS IT FOR?
We enlarged the main surface area that makes contact with the ball by placing the laces in an asymmetric line. The axis along which the laces are placed was shifted to the outside by 10 degrees to provide you with a larger sweet spot for controlling, passing and striking the ball. There's nothing to hold you back from showing off your best moves! Say goodbye to missed dribbles, close-but-not-quite passes, and strikes that land in the stands. Your coach and team members will be delighted!
