Skechers Football returns to the pitch with the next generation of its signature boot – the Skechers SKX_2. The boot features an evolved design to help players take control of the ball and control of the game. Fans around the world got a preview of the SKX_2 when Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane wore the white and turquoise boot on the main stage at the FIFA Club World Cup quarter-finals in the United States. The SKX_2 drops today across the GCC region as part of the new Skechers Football CTRL^ pack that celebrates the comfort of a good first touch. “It’s the best feeling when you get that touch where everything comes together perfectly and you’re just in the zone with total control focused on the goal – and Skechers gets me there,” said Kane. “The SKX_01 is a brilliant first boot for Skechers. “With the SKX_2, you can feel the evolution—it’s quicker, sharper, and even better tuned for my game.” “As we enter our third season in football, we continue to innovate, evolve and improve our offering so Harry Kane and all athletes can perform at their best,” said Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers. “From the elite pros to the young academy players, we’ve listened to their feedback when designing the SKX_2; it carries over what they love about the original with incremental precision-engineered advancements to deliver comfort that performs when you need it most.” Skechers Football offers a complete range of styles with options for every type of player and surface including the new white and turquoise CTRL^ pack.
