Puma To Release Classic Maradona Boots

It was one of the most memorable displays in World Cup history; Diego Maradona shook the 1986 tournament to it's core with the 'Hand Of God' and THAT solo effort that left half the England team on their arses, as Argentina defeated the Three Lions 2-1, en route to lifting the Jules Rimet trophy for the second time.

To commemorate one of El Diego's finest hours, Puma have released a limited edition version of the exquisite Puma King boots the main man wore on that day in the Summer of '86.

The boots are identical to Maradona's originals apart from the heel is adorned with Maradona's number 10, with his autograph on the outstep. Oh, and they'll set you back 200. Still, cheap at twice the price, we reckon.

Oh and just for good measure, check out the rather lovely little detail on the inside of the boot...

Good grief.
