Sports equipment has been modernised over the years. Little by little, avant-garde designs have taken market share away from the great classics. Shoes full of technological gadgets, covered in synthetic materials that try to imitate the feel of natural leather. Fortunately for the most conservative, the classic is still the order of the day in futsal. Munich Continental and Joma Top Flex are just a few of these. Models that, no matter how much time has passed, remain unchallenged on the best futsal pitches in the world.
1. Munich Continental Futsal Shoes
When we talk about futsal, we have to talk about this boot: the Munich Continental. Its classic aesthetics and top quality materials make this one of the most used 40x20 boots in the world. The upper is made of kangaroo and cowhide leather, giving a very natural touch on the ball and an unbeatable fit. The vulcanised outsole, present on all Munich models, has two different areas: the front part has a central pivot point and a circular pattern that facilitates turning; the rear part has a longitudinal spine that avoids excessive and damaging twisting of the joints. The Catalan brand's most timeless model will be your best ally if you are looking for a high profile with a powerful stroke, without giving up the feel of the ball.
Another model that can't be left out of this ranking is the Joma Top Flex. Its very soft leather upper and incredible fit make the Toledo brand's flagship our best ally when we are looking for a low profile with good ball control. The stitched Phylon and variable density rubber outsole provides the perfect grip with every stride and gives the shoe a high degree of flexibility, hence its name: Top Flex. The design also incorporates numerous flex lines to make the boot both lightweight and stable.
3. Kelme Precision Futsal Shoes
Comfort is the calling card of the Kelme Precision. The LNFS image shoe is made with a microfibre that allows it to adapt quickly and perfectly to the foot. Shock absorption will not be a problem thanks to the use of EVA for the midsole, thus achieving a medium profile. As for the outsole, we can see that the Kelme Precision has been reinvented from its previous model to the current K-Lite system, made up of grooved patterns with different pivot points that will favour the movements.
If your purchasing power does not allow you to afford the Continental, this is always a good option. The X brand decided to keep the same midsole and outsole system as its big sister, but without the kangaroo leather in the upper, replacing it with a combination of nylon and mesh. In addition, the numerous reinforcements make it a very durable shoe against the wear and tear of this sport. Perhaps because of all these reinforcements, the Munich Gresca will be a little stiff the first time you wear it, but nothing unusual. If you're looking for great reinforcement and durability, don't hesitate, this is the shoe for you.
5. Mizuno sala club 2 IN Futsal Shoes
The Mizuno Sala club 2 IN is another classic cut shoe, the result of combining synthetic nubuck with the brand's exclusive 'Airfresh' mesh. By using these materials, the Japanese company has managed to create a lightweight, breathable and comfortable shoe, thanks to the use of a thin layer of pre-formed EVA for the midsole. As for the outsole, it has a herringbone pattern with studded areas for traction and grip. In short, these shoes have a very low profile and are ideal for lightweight players whose best asset is speed.
