Titan Leather – At a Glance
This new Titan leather is a huge technological advancement over the regular kangaroo leathers currently in the market place. Using this hard-wearing, superior touch, fast, and water resistant durable material – Pele Sports has produced a sophisticated boot of unparalleled protection and comfort that truly molds to the foot.

Developed specifically for the Trinity 3E, Titan leather uses bespoke cutting-edge tanning technology based upon titanium, solid state lubrication and military grade water resistance processing techniques that herald a new era for the Trinity 3E and pioneers new standards for football boots.

Titanium
An additional titanium tanning process enhances the strength of the leather while ensuring a ‘glove-like fit’ and reducing the risk of unnecessary stretch.

Solid State Lubrication
The solid state lubricant (SSL) technology used in the production of the boot, penetrates deeper than normal into the fibres to achieve an unparalleled level of softness and comfort when worn. In addition the (SSL) technology actually increases the rate of moisture movement through
the uppers fibers, resulting in the optimum breathability and moisture management for your feet.

Military Grade Water Resistance
Titan leather has been engineered with a new, cutting edge water repellent treatment. It is a military grade process applied during the tanning process to achieve high water resistance specifications keeping feet drier and warmer for extended periods of time.

Darryl Cassingham, Head of Research at Pele Sports states that “Having developed Kangaroo leathers for over 10 years, it was clear the Trinity needed an advanced concept leather like no other. Titan leather is both unique and superior compared to normal Kangaroo leathers allowing a lightweight upper, the solid state lubricant (SSL) technology for ultimate foot comfort, and utilization of military grade water resistance technology to keep feet drier for longer.”
