Puma Re-Issues v1.06 Boots for 10th Anniversary
Puma is bringing back one of its most iconic football boots, the v1.06. Released in 2006, the Puma v1.06 boot returns as a limited-edition release to celebrate its 10th anniversary.
The re-issued v1.06 is part of the new Football Classics Initiative which will see Puma bring back more classics, as well as release new takes on past concepts, like the Puma evoSPEED SL Grass.
Puma v1.06 - Red / White / Black
This image shows the 2006 Puma v1.06 speed soccer cleat, re-released in February 2016.
Labeled Puma's lightest football boot at the time, the v1.06 was worn by the likes of Samuel Eto'o, Robert Pires and Alexander Hleb (who interestingly wore the original boots from 2006 in this year's Champions League). Mostly red, they feature white Puma brandings on both sides, while the sockliner and sole plate are offset in black.
Tech-wise, the Puma v1.06 is re-launched with the exact same specifications as the 2006 original. It features a Scholler ConTec upper in order to reduce weight and offer a barefoot-like feel. A carbon fiber outsole with an unique stud configuration is used for the Puma v1.06 soccer cleats, both to keep the weight low and to improve acceleration and speed on firm-ground surfaces.
The re-released Puma v1.06 football boots are already available in limited quantities of 500 for €270 (£220).

Portuguesa 2026 Third Kit Released - Tribute to Portugal Ahead of 2026 World Cup
Brazilian club Associação Portuguesa de Desportos, commonly known as Portuguesa, has officially launched its new third kit for the 2026 season. Produced by technical sponsor Joma, the new uniform pays direct homage to the Portuguese national team, celebrating the club's deep historical roots as Portugal prepares to compete in the upcoming 2026 World Cup.
The new Portuguesa 2026 third jersey closely mirrors the classic look of the Portuguese national team, featuring a vibrant crimson red base enhanced by subtle jacquard detailing that provides a sense of movement to the fabric. The shirt is structured with a classic polo collar adorned with red and white edging and a green front point insert. The sleeves remain red with contrasting green underarm panels, while the cuffs match the collar's red and white trim.
Further solidifying the international tribute, the official coat of arms of Portugal is prominently displayed on the nape of the neck above the white player numbering. The alternative uniform is completed by green shorts and red socks, finalizing the classic Portuguese color scheme.
The kit is set to make its on-pitch debut this Saturday, May 16th, in a match against Água Santa.

The uniform is further detailed with various subtle graphic elements referencing the history and symbols of the club, which are placed on the inside of the collar, the back hem, and within the custom numbering.
