The Upper
Although they also come in calf leather variations, the Pantofola d’Oro Lazzarini football boots in our selection are made from single pieces of kangaroo leather, which is basically superior in every thinkable way. It sumptuously wraps itself around the foot and gives you a soft touch on the ball, while the seamless upper construction makes for a very flexible feeling at the same time. Every boot goes through the same 46 steps during the manufacturing process and at every point, they are quality controlled, which means that despite having very few seams across the upper, the boots are in no risk of showing poor durability.
Soleplate
The Pantofola d’Oro Lazzarini is like many other classic boots made with an outsole that focuses on high levels of comfort and stability. However, there is a bit more to it than first meets the eye, because even though the Pantofola d’Oro designers rely more on their top tier craftsmanship, than on advanced engineering, they have still made sure to make the soleplate a little springier around frontfoot. This gives you a more powerful kick-off from the ground, and together with the flexible upper, it actually gives you a real feeling of explosiveness. As much as you can have in a boot that weighs 290 grams at least.
It’s no coincidence that the Italians have such a famed reputation, when it comes to footwear, and the cobblers at Pantofola d’Oro are a big part of that. If you’re a little intrigued by the prospect of playing in the pinnacle of quality football boots, then I’d be the last one to blame you. The second you get them out of the box, you instantly feel that this is something very different to the usual mass-produced boots.
