Debut Against Manchester United: Custom Puma Future 6.1 James Maddison Boots Unveiled
Update: As expected, Maddison debuted his new football boots today against Manchester United (2-2). It is somewhat odd that there really is denim fabric applied to the upper. Otherwise, his new shoes looked great.
Puma today revealed the new Future 6.1 football boots in 'white / multicolour' that will be worn by midfielder James Maddison tomorrow in a clash of giants against Manchester United and are designed to stand out.
Maddison, who has a contract with German sportswear brand Puma, is one of their most important assets in the Premier League. Maddison's new Future 6.1 football boots were customized by @afrokickz, who usually transform popular sneakers into one-of-a-kind shoes.

Check out the new Puma Future 6.1 James Maddison football shoes in white / multicolour below.
Originally white, the new Puma Future 6.1 James Maddison soccer boots feature a lot of different coloured elements in red, yellow, green and light blue as a homage to his former clubs Aberdeen, Coventry and Norwich. The colours of Leicester City are present with his shirt number 10.
I just wanted it to be personal, I always wanted a boot that I could design
There are several other details such as Maddison's catch phrase 'Be yourself, everybody else is taken' and a denim effect that was applied to the upper where the lace closure is.
“I just wanted it to be personal, I always wanted a boot that I could design,” Maddison explained. “I always wanted the main colour of the boot to be white as that’s when I feel at my best and I walk out on pitch ready to go.”
The new Future 6.1 cleats from Puma are identical to the first edition looking at tech.

England 2026 World Cup Match Boots Stolen in Kansas City
The England national team has suffered a major setback ahead of their 2026 World Cup campaign, as the match boots of several top players were stolen from a transport van. The incident, first reported by Craig Hope and Jack Gaughan for the Daily Mail, has left the squad's staff scrambling to secure replacements before their first training session in Kansas City on Saturday.
In addition to the players' custom footwear, the thieves also made off with nearly all of the team's training footballs, reportedly leaving just a single ball behind. The logistical nightmare means kit managers and equipment staff must now work rapidly with their respective brands to supply the squad with new boots in time for their opening matches of the tournament.
Awesome: Leeds United 26-27 Home Kit Concept Based on Leaked Bayern München Away Kit
A stylish Leeds United home kit concept has caught the attention of fans online. Created by Leeds supporter and graphic designer @ZK1919, the concept directly adapts the design of an Adidas FC Bayern away kit, transforming it into a Leeds home shirt.
The concept features the classic Adidas Trefoil logo and integrates Leeds United's front-of-shirt sponsor, Red Bull. To match the club's traditional colors, the designer swapped the original red accents for yellow and outlined the Red Bull logo in blue. The concept also sparked discussions among supporters regarding the exact shade of yellow, the choice of the club badge, and the potential constraints of Red Bull's corporate branding rules on future kits.
While purely a fan-made design and not an official leak for the 2026-27 season, it highlights the potential of an Adidas Trefoil Leeds kit. The actual Leeds United 26-27 home kit has been very unpopular ahead of its release.
