| *Kipsta has invented the XP, a signature that is demanding and engaging |
At Kipsta we're committed
to maximising lifespan!
1 XP (which stands for eXPerience) is equivalent to 1 use (training session or match).
The tests are carried out by an external laboratory (the CTC in Lyon), so the results are neutral.
We test all the football boots on the market to ensure that we develop football boots that last the longest and allow you to play at least one full season. |
| HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR VIRALTO IV BOOT SIZE |
To ensure your feet are as comfortable as possible we recommend choosing a football boot a half size (U.K., 1 size European) smaller than your usual sizeThe leather upper is naturally very supple and, unlike artificial materials, will stretch and fit the contours of your foot. For your VIRALTO IV boot, pick a half size smaller than your usual size.
For example, if you normally wear a size 9-1/2 (UK) for football boots, we recommend choosing a size 9 (UK) for your VIRALTO IV boots. |
| HOW TO LOOK AFTER YOUR PREMIUM LEATHER VIRALTO IV FOOTBALL BOOTS. |
Do you have a habit of leaving your mud-clogged boots in your bag after training and then pulling them out again just before the next session? STOP!!!
To continue to enjoy your boots, you have to put in the time. As with any leather boot, these boots require a minimum of care. That's why we've developed a care kit that you can find here: https://www.decathlon.fr/p/kit-entretien-chaussure-essential/_/R-p-339843?mc=8756736 |
| THE ULTIMATE CHOICE FOR LOVERS OF LEATHER FOOTBALL BOOTS: PREMIUM K-LEATHER UPPERS. |
For the "master of the pitch" who loves leather football boots, we have created nothing short of the very best!
The forefoot of these Viralto IV football boots is made of kangaroo leather. High-end leather produced from animals raised in their local environments (https://www.kangarooindustry.com/fr/)
In cooperation with our certified supplier, we use the best part to ensure the highest possible quality on the areas of the foot that are in contact with the ball. |
| FLEX-H AND DUAL HARDNESS TECHNOLOGIES: WHAT ARE THEY? |
In order to provide you with optimum flexibility for sudden changes of direction and push-offs, mad dashes and between-the-lines passes, we use the following two technologies: The first, Flex-H, on the front of the outsole, allows the sole to bend following the shape of a horizontal "H". The second, Dual Hardness, combines TPU with different hardness properties, providing more flexibility or support depending on the targeted zone. |
| "SAFE CARE": FOOTBALL BOOTS THAT PUT YOUR FEET FIRST: DO THEY EVEN EXIST? |
We designed these football boots with a podiatrist specializing in sports and professional football. Together, we designed and validated the various technologies and concepts used in these football boots. For example, when creating the outsole, the number of studs, their rounded shape, and their positions on the boot, were specifically researched and designed to ensure the best balance of grip and comfort. |
| SO WHAT IS AN OPTIMAL STRIKE ZONE? |
We enlarged the main surface area that makes contact with the ball by placing the laces in an asymmetric line. The axis along which the laces are placed was shifted to the outside by 10 degrees to provide you with a larger sweet spot for controlling, passing and striking the ball. There's nothing to hold you back from showing off your best moves! Say goodbye to missed dribbles, close-but-not-quite passes, and strikes that land in the stands. Your coach and team members will be delighted! |
