Adidas launch Samba Primeknit, the world’s first knitted football boot, in order to combine the comfort and responsiveness of playing barefoot with the protection of a traditionally designed performance shoe. The limited edition boots are the first to have an upper that is entirely knitted from heel-to-toe, providing a bespoke second-skin fit that retains the strength of a conventional pair of cleats. High levels of flexibility and comfort are provided via the one-piece knitted upper; the yarns used to construct ‘primeknit’ provide stability and strength equal to conventional boots. Each yarn receives a high precision coating that guarantees water resistance even while playing on a wet pitch.
