Italian football boot manufacturers Lotto, launched their top of the range boot, the Zhero Gravity, which ties in nicely with the football boot being worn at this years World Cup(2006).
Performance: Although not the lightest, this is still a light football boot at 210 grams, so great for speed.
Lotto have said to have been developing this football boot for 3 years and have invested 1 million pounds!
The development sees the launch of the first lace less football boot. Without lacing, this boot will have excellent shooting precision and close sensitivity for control.
The football boot comes with 7 fixed bladed studs and 4 interchangeable conical studs, providing great stability.
Comfort: In addition to being lace less, the Zhero Gravity comes with two insoles for maximum comfort.
Players: Luca Toni, Shevchenko and Cafu were said to be involved in the development.
Verdict: Not the most attractive style, but has a cult following. Top end pricing likely to prevent mainstream sales of the Lotto Zhero Gravity, but since the launch the price has decreased significantly.
