The Umbro X boot was a very popular mid 2000's boot, designed for speed
The upper features a premium Teijin microfiber material, similar to the Mercurial Vapor material from the time, but is even softer and has a more cushioned feel
The upper also features a very thing plastic element in the instep with dozens of curved lines, creating the "touch control" element on the boots
The Sole Plate:
Continuing with the lightweight design, Umbro used a wishbone sole plate frame with a titanium element
Underneath this, a carbon fiber material was used for added structure and support while being ultra lightweight
Notes and Comments:
The X boot had a very similar upper feel with the cushioned strikezone, but was as lightweight as a Mercurial from this time. The best of both worlds.
The upper has a very spongy and close to leather like feel, along with such a unique design
The boots are extremely lightweight and have to be one of the most underrated boots of all time.
