I’m gonna be honest with you guys, I never thought Crude oil would be so crucial to the production of many flagship models the football world has to offer, and it’s all started when the Australian Football Boot company Concave brought in TPU(Thermoplastic Polyurethane) as an important component to it’s boots.
Another thing which I consider to be the most interesting aspect is that all of these boots contain a form of petroleum jelly which adheres to almost any surface, except concrete and wooden floors,making it quite the boot for a person who wouldn’t mind getting his/her feet dirty.
The legacy it carries…
Being an avid football player, I love myself a bit of everything related to Football. This is frankly what love to do as a hobby as well as profession, playing as well as rating boots and cleats. However, Concave is one football company I personally would not like to partner with.
Don’t get me wrong, I adore this company and would love to buy all their boots, but I feel like their boots are a bit…well…broken. Broken is the sense overpowered, and I don’t like football boots when they’re made to be nigh-unbeatable,especially ones which contain a type of technology which is unfair on the pitch. Football is supposed to be a fair game, and albeit is a bit rough at times, I would not like to see players promoting these types of technology as they may not have much competition then.
To put it bluntly, I rather wear crocs or slippers than wear these boots for a match. This is just my opinion,you may say otherwise,but this is where I put my foot down. It’s a fantastic company which makes a bit too over the top boots.
Other than that, I hope you guys enjoyed the first episode of Boot Aesthetics and if you want to see more, do let me know by smashing the like button and commenting which one you wanna see next 😁.
P.S- The price for the boots in the picture above aren’t specified 😔
Adios!
