The Furon v7 ‘Seven Edition’: A Symbolic Tribute to Saka’s Career

In a nod to Arsenal and England sensation Bukayo Saka, New Balance unveiled the exclusive Furon v7 ‘Seven Edition’ boot, chronicling Saka’s connection with the number seven throughout his burgeoning career.

From joining Arsenal’s esteemed academy at the tender age of seven to making his first-team debut at 17 donning the #87 shirt, the number has consistently resonated with the young star. Today, Saka proudly wears Arsenal’s #7 jersey, echoing club legends’ legacies and recently marking a club milestone with 83 uninterrupted Premier League appearances. His accolades aren’t limited to the club arena; Saka recently clinched the title of England Men’s Player of the Year for the second consecutive time.

Reflecting on the significance of this boot launch, Saka remarked, “The dream of wearing the number 7 shirt for Arsenal has been a cornerstone of my career. Celebrating my journey with a dedicated boot is truly special. I eagerly await the moment I take to the field in these boots.”

The Furon v7 ‘Seven Edition’ boot mirrors Saka’s ardor. Crafted in a pristine white with contrasting red, the boot is adorned with significant symbols, including the notable number seven, Arsenal’s emblematic cannon, and nods to his affectionate moniker, ‘Little Chilli’.

Furon v7 Highlights:
  • A Hypoknit upper promoting stretch and support.
  • Firm ground-specific nylon outsole.
  • Distinct stud configuration for agile movement.
  • Off-centered laces with a cored-out canopy to augment the strike zone and ensure a secure fit.
  • Breathable, lightweight Hypoknit mesh collar.
  • A 3D tongue tab enhancing grip.

Andrew McGarty, New Balance’s Head of Global Sports Marketing, spoke about the collaboration, saying, “Saka stands as one of football’s brightest talents. We’re elated to produce a boot that so intimately echoes his personal and professional journey.”

Football enthusiasts can snag the Bukayo Saka Furon v7 ‘Seven Edition’ from 19th September 2023, 09:00 am BST. It will be available globally at select retailers and on New Balance’s official websites, catering to both US and UK audiences.
