Review: Pele Sports Trinity 3E

The Pele Sports Trinity 3E made a huge splash when they were released at the tail end of 2011. Prior to their release, Pele Sports had produced three other no nonsense boots that weren’t packed with technology or new innovations. However, with the Trinity, Pele Sports packed in a whole host of interesting features such as the Symbioskin upper as well as a never before seen stud configuration. All of this combined with a seriously light weight of 170 grams meant that conceptually, the Pele Sports Trinity was a giant killer, a boot that could compete with the staples of the speed boot market, the adiZero. Mercurial and the V1.11 series. I had the chance to test out the Trinity and see if they were as impressive on the pitch as they are on paper.

The Verdict

Design - 7/10

Comfort - 9/10
Performance - 8.5/10
Value - 5/10

Final Verdict

8/10

All in all the Trinity is definitely a huge leap forward for Pele Sports following the release of their three heritage boots the 1958, 1962 and 1972. While in terms of performance and comfort the Trinity ranks right up there with the best speed boots on the market, questionable durability brings the whole boot down. While it certainly is a quality release, adidas can breathe a sigh of relief as the adiZero’s position at the top of the ultralight boot chart is secure. Puma and Nike on the other hand, beware. If your a speedy winger or striker and are looking for something different and unique, I would definitely recommend the Pele Sports Trinity.
