'The objective of the ULTRA SL was to create the fastest, most extreme football boot possible, to give an insight into how football boots could be engineered in the future,' said Dominique Gathier, Head of Product Line Management Teamsport. 'We looked at how hypercars are built and transferred these key learnings into the creation of ULTRA SL, with particular focus on how to reduce the weight of the boot whilst maintaining elite-level performance properties.'

The new Puma Ultra SL SL Rimac boots are the super light weight version of the Puma Ultra. The red / black / white Puma Ultra SL boots from the new 'SL Rimac' collection swap the lightweight MATRYXEVO woven upper of the standard edition with an even more lighter, stiff synthetic material.
"The ULTRA SL FG’s upper is constructed of a super-light woven mesh, coated in a thin layer of TPU skin to give added durability and touch on the ball. The aerodynamic silhouette features two ‘windows’ on the heel, which are directly inspired by the body work of the Rimac C_Two. The UTLRA SL also features a PEBAX outsole and integrates a custom-made, extremely lightweight tooling engineered to boost your speed with ULTRA acceleration."
The sole plate of the new 'Red / Black / White' Puma Ultra SL boots appears to be identical to the sole plate of the standard version, just with a metallic shimmering racing car effect.
