Imagine a boot bursting at the seams with the latest tech. We’re talking Fusionskin leathers, innovative stitching patterns, and a total revamp of tooling systems.
This isn’t your grandpa’s rugby boot, this is the future!
The adidas Kakari Z.1? A classic, no doubt. But it’s time to pass the torch. The new adidas Kakari RS is ready to step out of the shadows and into the limelight.
So, lace up and get ready! The new King of the pitch is here, and it’s ready to rule!
Lace up in “Liquid Leather”
Say goodbye to the synthetic leather of old, formally used on the Kakari Z.1, and say hello to a revolution in boot design as adidas embrace their “Liquid Leather”, dubbed ‘Fusionskin’ in the design of their Kakari RS.
First introduced on adidas’s range of Copa football boots, FusionSkin now makes its way onto the Kakari range with the RS Rugby Boots and combines traditional calf leather with knit to produce a material that can accomodate the flexibility of a synthetic boot, while retaining the classic fit and feel of leather.
Lightweight, and highly versatile for future seasons whether braving waterlogged pitches or sweltering temperatures in the summer sun, the Fusionskin leather is your best friend.
Reinforced with Embroidered Stitching
Taking inspiration from last gen’s Kakari Z.1, the Kakari RS Rugby Boots for 2024 come prepared for the demands of the game.
After all, rugby is a high-octane sport that subjects boots to significant wear and tear, especially during rucking, scrummaging, and mauling, both on match days and in training sessions.
That’s where adidas’s Embroidered Stitching comes into play!
Where before the Kakari Z.1 held no restraint in showing off their colourful seams, the Kakari RS takes a more subtle approach and situates re-inforced stitching into their boots, nestled inbetween the outer and inner layers of the boot’s upper for a rugged design that is all about enhancing support in the midfoot.
To the heel, adidas continues to re-inforce the Kakari RS with further embroidered stitching for unmatched durability, aswell as optimal energy retention when darting for the try-line or engaged in rucks, mauls or scrums.
A Return to ‘One-Piece’ Tooling
adidas continues to prioritize weight reduction, striving to make the RS boot model the lightest yet.
In their quest to create the highest-performing Kakari to date, they have left no stone unturned—or, more aptly, no soleplate untouched.
The three-stripe giant has innovatively incorporates new tooling into their soleplate, opting for a one-piece design to not only improve flexibility and reduce weight, but significantly enhance player stability and energy retention when making those decisive sprints, side-steps and darts towards the try-line.
