EXCLUSIVE: Puma to Release evoSPEED Marco Reus Boots in 2017
Nov 15, 2016, by Chris
We can exclusively reveal that Puma will launch a special edition of its evoSPEED football boots dedicated to Borussia Dortmund's Marco Reus. The Puma evoSPEED Marco Reus cleats are the continuation of Puma's Derby Fever soccer cleats releases, which already saw the launch of signature boots for two players - Santi Cazorla and Antoine Griezmann.
Puma evoSPEED Marco Reus Derby Fever Signature Boots - Black / Safety Yellow
Puma already released signature football boots for Reus two years ago.
Like the first Puma Marco Reus boots, the new Puma evoSPEED Reus boots will combine the colors of his club, Borussia Dortmund (Officially Black and Safety Yellow, same colors as the launch paint job of the Puma evoTOUCH).
Tech-wise, Marco Reus' exclusive Puma evoSPEED boots will be the same as all other regular editions of the model. The Derby Fever branding will be also seen on the Marco Reus edition of the evoSPEED Signature soccer cleat, just as on Cazorla's and Griezmann's boots.
As the first-ever Reus signature cleats released by Puma, the new Puma evoSPEED Marco Reus football boots will be released as limited edition to the general public. We received information that they were scheduled to be released ahead of the Ruhrderby between Dortmund and Schalke 04 on October 30 2016, while the release was postponed as Reus missed the match with an injury.
The Puma evoSPEED Reus Derby Fever boots will be most likely released in late March 2017 ahead of the derby between BVB and Schalke.

QPR Kit Clash Against West Brom
QPR faced a major kit clash in their EFL Championship away game at West Brom, wearing their pink away shirt with blue shorts against West Brom's traditional blue-and-white home shirt.
The bright pink of QPR looked surprisingly similar to the white stripes of West Brom on TV, while the blue shorts and dark details made the overall contrast even less clear.
From the wide camera angle, the two teams became difficult to distinguish, creating a frustrating viewing experience for fans.
Nike Kobe 8 Protro 'Mambacurial' Releasing Next Week
Nike is set to officially bring back one of its most famous crossover designs, the Kobe 8 Protro "Mambacurial", releasing on September 19, 2026. First introduced in 2013 as a tribute to Kobe Bryant's lifelong passion for football, the sneaker drew direct inspiration from the vibrant 2013 Nike Mercurial Vapor IX football boot. Thirteen years after its original debut, the model returns under the modernized Protro banner, uniting basketball performance with iconic football heritage. Big thanks to House of Heat.
The shoe faithfully recreates the beloved colorway, featuring a bold gradient across the engineered mesh upper in Red Plum, Pink Flash, and Electric Green. Signature football details define the look, including the oversized forefoot Swoosh that mimics Mercurial boot branding, massive block-letter "NIKE" lettering across the medial flank, and a translucent neon green outsole. Modern Protro upgrades have been implemented beneath the surface to provide improved cushioning and traction.
SK Brann Kvinner 26-27 Third Kit Released
Norwegian Toppserien side SK Brann Kvinner have officially unveiled their new 26-27 third kit, produced by Nike in collaboration with Unisport. The team debuted the vibrant new design during their away fixture against Lyn in Oslo.
The Nike SK Brann Kvinner 26-27 third shirt features a purple base paired with a large, dark rhododendron flower graphic printed across the front. The design honors Bergen's reputation as Norway's "Rhododendron City," known for the vibrant bushes that flourish in gardens and parks across the city. All branding, including the Nike Swoosh, monochrome Brann crest, and sponsor logos, is applied in a contrasting bright pink.
On the back, the jersey includes the inscription "For Bergen" in gothic lettering just below the collar, symbolizing the pride of representing the city on away trips. The new third uniform completes Brann Kvinner's 26-27 wardrobe alongside their traditional red home and dark away kits.
Special Club América 26-27 Kit Font Released
Club América has unveiled a special commemorative kit font for the 26-27 season, celebrating Mexican Independence Day and the club's marquee Clásico matches throughout September. The bespoke nameset replaces the regular squad typography on the back of Las Águilas' primary yellow home shirt, adopting the iconic green, white, and red of the Mexican flag.
The custom numbers feature a deep green base detailed with thin white vertical pinstripes. Embedded along the vertical lines are historic commemorative inscriptions, including the club name, the date "16 - 09 - 1810" marking the start of the Mexican War of Independence, and "INDEPENDENCIA DE MÉXICO". The player names above are rendered in vibrant red with a clean white outline.
To complete the patriotic design, each numeral incorporates a geometric red and cream 3D shadow effect, alongside Club América's crest placed at the base of every digit. The special typography delivers a unique cultural tribute, adding extra identity to the squad's jerseys during one of the most important periods of the Mexican football calendar.
