- A special “Athlete Exclusive” build, this pair were custom made to measure exclusively for Maguire by Puma, signifying they were not made for retail sale.
- Built with a fully bespoke full-leather upper, a feature never made available on retail Ultra models, offering a more traditional and supportive fit for the player’s requirements.
- Each boot features a custom split tongue design for improved fit and comfort, differing entirely from the one-piece Ultraweave style of retail versions - though a graphic print of the Ultraweave has been applied over the leather for disgusting purposes.
- The soleplate has been taken from the Puma Future model, offering increased flexibility and stud traction — another exclusive player-only modification.
