Alright, rugby warriors, gather round because Canterbury of New Zealand is back at it, and they’ve just dropped a new colourway in their Speed Infinite Elite and Stampede Groundbreak Elite collections.
We’re talking high-performance boots here, not just something to match your kit, but gear that could have you outpacing or outmuscling the opposition. I delve deeper into these boots that actually live up to the hype.
First up, Canterbury’s Speed Infinite Elite boot—this beauty now comes in green and is their lightest rugby boot ever at just 217 grams. That’s less weight on your feet and more speed to burn.
The sole plate, known as the Flightbeam (which sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie), is designed to give you an extra burst when you need it, whether you’re tearing down the wing or dodging defenders like they’re traffic cones.
The stud configuration is where the magic happens—stability, explosive power transfer, and somehow, still nimble enough to keep your footwork razor-sharp.
The fit? It feels like a snug glove for your foot, perfect for those sudden changes in direction.
Canterbury’s not messing around with the Speed Infinite Elite. This boot’s made for players who want to be faster, more agile, and stronger—without sacrificing comfort.
And trust me, it delivers. It’s not just another flashy boot; it’s the product of Canterbury’s 120 years of rugby passion, mixed with cutting-edge technology to ensure you’re playing at your absolute best.
Now, for the big guys up front, there’s the Stampede Groundbreak Elite. Designed specifically for forwards, this is the boot that helps you stay grounded while packing more power.
The Flightbeam 2.0 outsole is no joke—Canterbury claims it gives you three times more power, and from what I’ve seen, that’s a hard fact to argue with.
The stability and traction are next level, making it easier for you to plough through the opposition like a bulldozer while staying planted on the pitch.
Canterbury didn’t stop at performance; they’ve actually been listening to athletes to improve the fit and comfort too.
So, you know that these aren’t just pretty boots with clever names—they’re built to feel good while you’re grinding it out for 80 minutes. I’ve seen these boots up close, and they’re as tough as the game itself.
Both the Speed Infinite Elite and Stampede Groundbreak Elite come in a soft-ground version, perfect for those wet, muddy matches where you need all the grip you can get.
Available now for £150 at www.canterbury.com, these boots are ready to be your new game-day weapon.
So, whether you’re a back wanting to leave defenders clutching at air or a forward looking to dominate the scrum, Canterbury’s got you covered with the Speed Infinite Elite and Stampede Groundbreak Elite.
Go on, give them a try—your feet and your game will thank you.
