Skechers unveils new Razor 2 and Sunset Pack football boots

Published Jul 15, 2026 07:24 am
Skechers brings innovation and comfort to football with the arrival of the groundbreaking, lightweight Skechers Razor 2 speed boot. It debuts with the Skechers Football Sunset Pack, also available on the SKX_2 control boot. This brightly colored pack, inspired by Los Angeles at dusk, will be seen on pitches across North America during the upcoming global tournament.
“This is our first World Cup since launching Skechers Football three years ago, and as a bonus, it is in our own backyard. That makes it especially meaningful to see how far we’ve come in such a short time, with players from multiple countries in the tournament wearing our Sunset Pack boots,” said Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers. “This global event is the ultimate showcase for the signature comfort, innovative performance, and distinct personality of Skechers Football.”
In honor of the biggest tournament in the world, an energetic hero film spotlights the Sunset Pack and England’s Harry Kane, Turkey’s Barış Alper Yılmaz, and Sweden’s Anthony Elanga. As top athletes gear up to travel to North America, the Skechers campaign invites players and special guests, including Mohammed Kudus, Jamie Redknapp, Frank Leboeuf, and Ruud Gullit, to experience the “Skechers Motel”—a classic Americana roadside destination where elite footballers stay in comfort before the excitement unfolds on the pitch.
“Playing at the World Cup is always the greatest honour, and doing it in Skechers will be fantastic,” said Harry Kane, recipient of the 2025/2026 European Golden Boot. “When you’re playing on the world’s biggest stage, you need boots that look good and make you feel confident. The design is incredible, but more importantly, the performance and comfort are exactly what I need to perform at my best. I’m incredibly excited to lead the boys in them and give everything we’ve got.”

Skechers Football offers a wide range of styles with options for every type of player on any surface.
Introduced with the Sunset Pack is the all-new, innovative Razor 2 Elite speed boot (worn by Barış Alper Yılmaz and Anthony Elanga, among others) for maximized propulsion and explosive acceleration. Developed with input from athletes to support the movements and demands of the modern game, the boot is now lighter and faster, with no break-in required, thanks to a fit that adapts to the anatomy of more foot shapes. It features a first-in-class upper construction with cut-out sections to reduce weight, a thermoplastic and fiberglass plate with an aggressive traction design, a Skechers Performance Fitknit® upper, and a resilient Hyper Burst Pro sockliner.
The SKX_2 Elite (worn by Harry Kane, among others) is designed for players who require precise strike control, with a custom last meticulously crafted to optimize comfort and deliver a perfect fit that enhances touch on the pitch. It also features a Hyper Burst Pro sockliner, a Skechers Performance Fitknit® upper, and a multi-directional outsole for incredible traction across multiple surfaces.
In addition to the Elite versions worn by professional footballers around the globe, Skechers also offers the SKX_2 and Razor 2 in Academy and Club versions, giving footballers in the Philippines access to the same innovative designs. These boots are ideal for players of all skill levels, delivering enhanced performance and comfort. Youth and Kids versions are also available for the next generation of players who aspire to emulate their favorite stars, featuring an adaptable fit and enhanced comfort in every pair. Both ranges are available in firm ground, indoor, and turf styles, expanding the availability of these select tiers in the Philippine market.
Complementing the Sunset Pack, the celebration continues with the Neon City Pack, featuring colors inspired by Los Angeles after dark. Skechers Football boots in the Neon City Pack colorway are set to arrive in the Philippines this July.
The new Skechers Football Sunset Pack is available now at Skechers.com, select Skechers stores, and Bootcamp stores nationwide. Global football fans can get behind-the-scenes access to Skechers Football product launches and more by visiting @skechersph on Instagram and Facebook.
