Lava Blast White Total Eclipse Puma evoSPEED 1.4 SL Released

The Puma evoSPEED SL is not for training days. It’s for your best days. Your match days. It may only be used on real grass. Due to its extremely lightweight design, it’s expected to last up to 10 games. But the moments it creates will last forever.

Interesting, to say the least. The adizero 99g didn’t have this kind of warning, but surely a boot even lighter would be just as susceptible to breaking down in the same amount of time. So the question becomes: Do you applaud Puma for their openness and honesty or rip them for selling you a Lava Blast White Total Eclipse Puma evoSPEED that could rip itself in less than a half a season?

It’s important to note that the adizero 99g and Camo 3D were limited releases, whereas this evoSPEED SL is not. This means Puma is taking a giant chance on the attractiveness of a premium matchday boot like their new evoSPEED SL. The price is $240 retail (or $215.99 at SoccerPro), so we’re talking almost $25/game here.

The tech and design look truly impressive on this release, but the real fascinating part begins when testing starts and we can see just how long these boots can last. Moving forward, this could decide how transparent these companies are with their soccer footwear. Do consumers even appreciate marketing honesty like this?
