The kangaroo is the national symbol of Australia; they are a famed creature indigenous to the island and are a huge tourist attraction. But that is not the only purpose they serve, they are harvested for their meat, fur but mostly their leather.
Nearly 7 million kangaroos are culled each year, with most of the leather destined for the football pitch. Its unique structure allows it to be cut down to a very thin substance whilst retaining considerable strength and studies have shown that it is one of the strongest leathers available, having 10 times the tensile strength of cow hide.
Instead of charging a high price for the software, it is free to download from app stores and the website; this will most likely prove popular as it incorporates GPS enabled smartphones to allow fitness training without the devices. Although the software can be used alone, the addition of heart rate and footfall are much more effective in performance analysis, meaning an incentive to buy the full price gear.
The leading advert features Sunderland striker Darren Brent who is currently under sponsorship with Umbro. It is the first major endorsement Brent has taken part in despite his appearances for the England squad and an extensive professional career.
The boots that are adorned by the sports top players are sold by the masses to their fans who want to emulate their favourite players. This is what feeds the demand for kangaroo culling. It is a topic that has sparked controversy worldwide.
The boot itself is made of a single piece of Japanese Teijin micro-fibre rather than kangaroo leather and moulded onto a single plate of ultra light poly carbonate with inbuilt studs. Darren Brent was the first player to test drive the boots and his reaction was that they were the lightest he had ever worn. He will be sporting them at the start of the new season, possibly out of choice, possibly out of obligation; the rest of the public will be able to get their hands on them at the start of august.
