Umbro GT2 Pro in White/Black/Vivid Blue Released

There has been plenty of movement from Umbro in recent week, and one of their latest colorway releases in the popular GT2 Pro series comes in this White/Black/Vivid. In terms of crisp summer looks, this is about as fresh as you can get! As with all GT releases, the primary upper colors fade into each other, producing a pretty unmistakeable look. Currently, I putting a pair of the Black/Acid Green colorway through testing, so stay tuned for a review in the coming weeks.

Having seen plenty of success with the initial GT Pro release, this upgraded version comes in at a lighter weight thanks in part to a Japanese micro-fiber upper. Picking up on a Nike strategy, Umbro has also trimmed the FG version even further by including hollowed out blades. They currently retail for $115 at Soccer.com.

In fact, at 8.8oz this is the lightest boot Umbro has ever released! The subtle asymmetric, partially concealed lacing provides a larger strike zone. There has been plenty of hype behind this release, with plenty of initial reports comparing them to some of the best speed boots on the market – only time (and a review) will tell!

The GT2 Pro has a pretty tidy retail price of $150, leaving them at a much more affordable price point than other top tier speed boots on the market..
