BENGALRU: In the lead-up to the ICC World Cup, German sportswear brand PUMA on Tuesday announced the launch of a special collectors edition PUMA one8 cricket shoes – a tribute to team India’s prolific captain and its brand ambassador Virat Kohli.
Virat will be seen sporting these gold spiked shoes at the World Cup. The first pair from the collection of 150 will be auctioned in London later this May.
The shoe design features Virat’s favourite colour – white, fused with accents of gold. This is not only Virat’s signature shoe, but it’s also the next generation PUMA Spike 19.1. The removable spikes on the rubber outsole of the shoe are gold as well.
Created with a lightweight upper, that also provides unmatched support for multi directional movement on the pitch, an official release claims.
