What is the Concave concept?

Football players around the world have been looking for ways to increase power and precision in their game for many years. The Concave football boot is revolutionary in its design, as it naturally complements the convex shape of a football, creating a ‘cup’ for any football. Concave boots allow players to execute kicks with more accuracy, control and power on a far more consistent basis than with a standard football boot. The reason - a four times larger sweet spot than today’s football boots.

Does the Concave concept improve the boot's 'sweet spot'?

Yes. The standard football boot’s ‘sweet spot’ (the point of optimum power and accuracy) is along the natural ridge line of the instep of the foot. The sweet spot on a conventional football boot is approximately one centimeter wide and ten centimetres long. The revolutionary design of the Concave boot improves performance by increasing the surface area of the sweet spot by up to four times. This is achieved by the uniquely shaped concave upper of the boot, which ‘cups’ the ball. Just as tennis racquets and golf clubs with larger sweet spots influenced their sports, Concave boots will also have a lasting impact on the way football is played.

Have the Concave boots been independently tested?

Yes. Independent scientific testing concluded use of the Concave resulted in up to 30% improved accuracy. Independent player tests also showed an increase in power of up to 15%. Professional player testing using radar gun technology has shown over an 18 metres distance, the ball traveled on average 15kms an hour faster. This means greater distance and accuracy in passing and shooting with less effort required to achieve the same result. Independent testing has proven that the design of the Concave boot significantly increases the performance in the critical areas of accuracy, power and control. Both machine testing and human testing were conducted by Australia’s largest technology consulting firm, Invetech Pty Ltd. and Monash University.

What about safety and protection?

In addition to improved performance, Concave provides two very important safety features: Shank Balance Stabilizer (SBS) provides support and reinforcement to the mid-foot area to help control balance between the front and rear of the foot. The SBS protects from an over extension of the middle of the boot. Too much flexibility in this area can lead to metatarsal bone damage. MetaGuard. Concave’s unique upper design, which comprises a flexible layer of TPU and reinforced cushioning foam composite offers increased protection against the occurrence of metatarsal injuries by adding a protective layer to the top of the foot. sity.
