Laced up series Evopower C4. No.2 (Inspired by Soccerbible)


Here's the second blog entry for the laced up series, inspired by the one and only Soccerbible.

In this entry, I will showcase more shots of the C4, and most definitely how they look on feet. I would give Puma all five points out of five for their thought process and designing of the tricks series. Am definitely a fan of it, with no doubt.

Really happy to say that these boots were featured on Soccerbible's Instagram for the second time. Thanks guys! All thanks goes to Ernest (@412.am) and glad he helped me with this. Here goes :


Another picture of me lacing up in the Evopowers. Just shows how flexible the the sole is, as Puma had advertised. It doesn't really help with much, but it's just that it is really flexible to the point that it can actually bend outward! Just another tech spec available on this mighty soccer boot. 

With this boot, what you will experience is something unlike any other boot. You just have to try it for yourself to know the feeling actually. It's quite comfortable, but with any other boot, it only depends on the person itself and how he/she likes it. 

Definitely a must have for people wanting to experience something different. 



To me, I prefer to lace up not too tight, as with all other soccer boots I have used. Paired with the Trusox, cuts and turns in the field are more effective as my foot will not slide here and there in the boot, which is the case when using normal socks during wet weather. 

I feel like the socks are useful even in the wet weather as I do not feel any foot slippage in the boot. Definitely recommend this socks for players out there who face the same problem! 

In the picture are the calve length Trusox, but there is also the full length colored socks. 



Last for this entry, just a shot of the boots in the standing position. Like I have said before and will always say, the blue compliments the white, and vice-versa. Most definitely a colorway which is striking in the pitch, on or off. 

Thanks Weston Corporation for carrying these beauties! And thanks Puma for these wonderful and well-thought of colorway too. Worth the splurge. 

To those wondering, it cost me $359 at Weston Corporation. A price to pay for such a beautiful pair, which definitely is worth it. Now just need to improve my playing style and stamina to add more compliments to this, hahaha. 

So that's about it for entry number two! Hope you enjoyed and look forward to the next one, which is probably the last one for this series. Stay awesome and have a nice day!!

Laced up series Evopower C4. No.1 (Inspired by Soccerbible)

So hey guys I'm back! And today I have for you are photos of my limited edition pair, the Puma Evopower C4 or Cesc Fabregas. At first I didn't want to wear it as it would fetch a high price from collectors or even be the start of nice and good trades, and boy have I never been more right.

Deals came from Carousell (an application), trades and also people wanting to purchase it. Anyways this is not why I'm here. Today is to share with you a collaboration between one of the talented people I know, Ernest (@412.am on Instagram). Can't tell you how amazing this guy is. As awkward as he looks, he has a great personality. Once again, thanks for your help man!

So here, I have the shots from that day's session at NTU. Just a normal kickabout like any other, but I must say that I achieved so many great shots on this day. So here goes.


Lacing up in the soccer boots, just trying to make it look as attractive as it was when I first bought it. The white part is a little dirty now due to the artificial pitches I often play on but that's okay, it still is good looking nonetheless.

Comfort in this pair is very excellent, stud pressure is only noticeable at the start and little to no break in time is needed. I would say that since I have a flat foot, I'm considered wide-footed and this boot can cater to my wide-foot needs very well. The pressure is distributed evenly with the conical and bladed studs which occupy the sole of the boots.

Foam pads which are placed on the instep of the boot (most of them) do not necessarily help with the higher and also more powerful shot that Puma advertise in their videos or adverts. It only can come down to this : practice makes perfect. So if you do have a powerful shot, it just really means that you yourself have worked on the technique to get that kind of shot. That's about it.




The visual appeal of this boot is very high considering what Puma have done, as they said that they wanted to continue their "tricks" collection and this in fact was what Cesc Fabregas, of Chelsea had wanted from them. It goes well with the Chelsea kit, which is blue and white in color too.

On the instep, the design of "C4" can be seen which clearly means Cesc 4 which is Fabregas's first name and his kit number he has sticked with ever since he was in Arsenal. He also donned it in Barcelona, and now in Chelsea as well.

I'm just so happy to get my hands on such a beautiful pair and I totally appreciate every second of work put in to the design and conclusion of this boot. Not forgetting the Balotelli, Reus and also Aguero signature pairs as well. I just have wanted to try the Evopower ever since it came out and here I am donning a pair of my own.




So there's my review of the Evopower C4 and how it is so comfortable and also does its job very well. I hope you enjoyed this as much I have enjoyed typing it out and letting you guys read what I think best describes this sick pair. Will include more pictures in my next post.

Hope you guys enjoyed reading, stay awesome and have a nice day!
