Define your style.
Canterbury has released a special new collection of rugby boots and they are by far their best yet. The new AW17 collection promises to provide performance that is expected from a brand that has been serving the rugby community for over 110 years.
In a process that took over 18 months, Canterbury embarked on a journey with the aim of delivering a rugby boot range that players had never seen from the brand before. The end result was four styles that are not only built for rugby, but look good too!
Phoenix 2.0 (Elite at £90 and Club at £55)
Back-row & loose forwards
The Phoenix 2.0 boot is built for explosive power. It combines the characteristics of a power play with subtle agility and its hybrid constriction provides the lightweight performance needed by back-row and loose forwards.
The remastered version has improved forefoot dimensions and low profile collar to ensure the optimum rugby fit.
- Lightweight performance and comfort
- 8 stud out-sole ensures traction in all conditions
- Suitable for natural grass surfaces and designed for enhanced traction and acceleration
Speed 2.0 – (Elite at £90 and Club at £60)
Backs
The Speed 2.0 boots are Canterbury’s lightest boots to date and are built for reactive agility. They promise zero distraction and maximum performance from first wear right through the full 80 minutes.
They feature suede-feel lining to help performance and enhance comfort and are no doubt as striking as boots come. Perfect for backs.
- Heel raise for dynamic for positioning and lower limb strain.
- New sped 6 out-sole to ensure 360 degrees traction for reactive agility.
- Suitable for natural grass surfaces and designed for enhanced traction and acceleration.
Stampede 2.0 – (£55)
Tight-five.
The Stampede 2.0 boots are built for powerful tight-five players. They feature a wider fit for comfort and a hybrid outsole that provides the traction you need when driving the opposition back.
With a reinforced upper with cushioning for durability and performance, these boots are a tight-five’s dream.
- Unbreakable force
- New wide fit Powerlast
- 8 stud hybrid out-sole for traction in all conditions
- Suitable for natural grass surfaces
- Designed for enhanced traction and acceleration
Control 2.0 (£60)
Kickers
The Control 2.0 boots are built for superior touch and finesse. Perfect for kicking from your hands or off a tee.
They feature offset lacing for unrivalled control and comfort and an improved foot shape and low profile collar for touch and fit.
- Precision
- New 6-stud out-sole providing traction on soft ground.
- Designed for enhanced traction and acceleration
All four styles were sent into us last week and to say we were blown away is an understatement. Unbelievable comfort, especially with the Speed 2.0 boots. Just in time for the new season!
