THE NEW BALANCE ‘RAMSEY’ VISARO 2.0

Gunner Aaron Ramsey went into the lab with his boot provider, New Balance, to design his very own Visaro 2.0. The graphics on the boot are inspired by the Welsh midfielder’s tattoos on his left leg. The black, white and red colorway is a nod to Ramsey’s pro club Arsenal. Saint Michael the Archangel, a symbol of strength, power, and leadership is wrapped around the lateral side of the boot while the rising sun over Caerphilly Castle where Aaron grew up is situated on the medial side to complete the design. Aaron will debut his unique boot May 7th when his squad takes on Manchester United. Only 100 pairs of this special edition boot in UK size 8.5 will be released, each embroidered with a unique serial number. 

Aaron Ramsey said, “I’ve really loved the opportunity to work with the New Balance team to design these boots. Every time I step on the pitch I feel proud to play for my club and my country, so to get to show this pride through my boots has meant a great deal to me. I can’t wait to play in them.”

The Aaron Ramsey Limited Edition Visaro boot is available globally in limited numbers. It is available to buy from selected retailers in the UK and US and online for UK residents only at www.newbalance.co.uk/football. 

NEW BALANCE VISARO 2.0 “TYPHOON”

It’s been a little over a year and a half since New Balance announced their reintroduction onto the footy landscape with the Visaro. The Boston based brand was calculated in their endeavor, not only by garnering a solid stable of athletes but of course by making an elite soccer boot. Originally lauded for its simplicity and function , the boot was used across all of Europe’s biggest competitions by the likes of Aaron Ramsey and his Welsh teammate Joe Ledley.

With modern tech rapidly pushing the footy envelope keeping up is a must. New Balance understand this thus have officially dropped the Visaro 2.0. The “2.0” couldn’t be more fitting as it picks up where it’s predecessor left off and bolsters the boot into a next-gen stratosphere.

The subtle honeycomb upper is now replaced with more modern hexagonal,vary-zone arlaprene for enhanced ball manipulation. The visaro 2.0 is also equipped with a fresh foam EVA mid-sole for increased responsiveness. Lastly the new boot is rounded off with a transparent nylon sole-plate then dipped in a “Typhoon” and “Alpha Orange” colorway.  

  The New Balance Visaro 2.o is now available at select retailers and at
