The Puma evoKNIT Driver Pro shoe was developed especially for Formula 1 drivers. Its special feature is the fire-resistant, one-piece knitted Nomex upper material without laces, which ensures a comfortable close fit. The designers were able to produce a breathable structure with such protective properties to meet the challenging demands of Formula 1 racing. The lightweight neoprene outsole provides high grip and presents the critical interface between the driver and racing car. It facilitates lightning-quick throttle and braking reactions and gives the driver a very good feeling for the vehicle and the track.
Statement by the Jury
The design of the Puma evoKNIT Driver Pro appeals both functionally and aesthetically: the fireproof knitted shoe, including a nonslip sole, adapts optimally to the driver’s foot.
