Rocket Red Under Armour Spotlight 2016 Boots Released
Under Armour this week launched its all-new Spotlight football boot silo and, besides the understated white-and-black release colorway, the US brand also unveiled a more outgoing, predominantly red effort.
Under Armour Spotlight - Rocket Red / Black / Hi-Vis Yellow
This is the striking "Rocket Red" Under Armour Spotlight cleat.
The second Under Armour Spotlight 2016 football boots combine a red base with a black heel and inside, and striking Hi-Vis Yellow accents, with the latter color being used for all brandings as well as the sole plate.
Tech-wise, the red Under Armour Spotlight cleats carries over some parts of the discontinued SpeedForm, the Under Armour boot they replace and that was only launched last year itself. This most notably includes the outsole and external heel counter. Designed for offensive players, the Under Armour Spotlight features a lightweight, synthetic upper and an asymmetrical construction for a larger striking surface.

Retailing at $220, the red Under Armour Spotlight soccer boots should be available shortly.
