In an era where brands are leaving legendary boots behind Umbro have revisited their famous archives to recreate a blast of 90's nostalgia. The Speciali Eternal not only celebrates the brand's traditional past but also takes an exquisite football boot and fine tunes it for the modern game.
The Speciali Eternal epitomises everything that the original boot got so right by prioritising comfort using a soft and lightweight leather upper and Umbro's A-Frame overlay providing exceptional support and stability. One look at that glorious fold-over tongue is another to send us into joyous daydreams of Michael Owen running rings around Argentina in '98. What a moment. The only way that goal could ever be boring is if Michael Owen was commentating on it himself.
Of course, this is the "White/Black/Clematus Blue" edition, the follow up to the traditional "Black/White" boot but finished in the same matt style as the launch colourway. Being a classic of so much quality it's pleasantly surprising to see the Speciali Eternal arrive under the £100 mark. Umbro are leaving few boxes unticked in 2015. Happy that the Speciali is back? Not half as happy as Pepe we bet...
The Umbro Speciali Eternal is available from select online stockists including Pro-Direct Soccer.
