Now here is a football boot that got us excited in Sport360 towers.

PUMA unveiled the third generation of their evoPOWER range late in January and we were fortunate to give them a test run.

And they took us by surprise.

Like all previous editions of the evoPOWER, they’re engineered, of course, to amplify your power and accuracy on the pitch.

Now, in boots from other brands this has come at the expense of comfort as the lightweight material doesn’t often provide enough support.

Not so here, though. The new evoPOWER 1.3 features a soft, premium quality leather vamp that allows for cushioned touch but with the GSF (Gradual Stability Frame) Technology, you get further flexibility in the midfoot without sacrificing the comfort.

Without a doubt, these boots are the closest to mimicking your natural barefoot kicking motion and this gives you even greater control on your shots.

With a soleplate featuring a mixture of bladed and conical studs, the evoPOWER 1.3 provides  more stability to the standing foot, allowing you to put more power through the ball.

And you won’t be missed in them either, as the Safety Yellow and Atomic Blue generating maximum visibility for authority on the pitch.

These were a joy to play in.

We rate it: 9 out of 10 – Incredibly comfortable while providing a noticeable improvement in shot power
