Bukayo Saka & New Balance Drop the Furon v8 ‘7egacy’

There are signature boots - and then there are boots that feel like they were lifted straight from a player’s mind. The Furon v8 ‘7egacy’ sits firmly in the latter. This is the first time New Balance has handed full creative control to one of its athletes, and Bukayo Saka has delivered something that reaches well beyond colourways and materials. He’s built a story.

And if you were watching Arsenal vs Chelsea, you saw that story take its first step on the pitch.

A Debut Written in Real Time

Saka gave the ‘7egacy’ its debut in Arsenal’s 1–1 draw at Stamford Bridge — a game where he drifted in and out of the spotlight before carving out the moment that mattered. A burst to the touchline, a flash of composure, and a perfect ball for Merino to finish.

Quiet. Patient. Clinical. Exactly the kind of signature he’d want on a boot designed to reflect who he is.

And now the boots are here. No waiting. No teasers. No delay. Just straight from pitch to public.

A Boot Built From Saka’s World

The biggest story behind the Furon v8 ‘7egacy’ isn’t performance - it’s authorship. Every element of the design is pulled directly from Saka’s personal identity, translated with New Balance designers into a visual language that spans the entire silhouette.

Look closely at the upper and you’ll see a set of hand-drawn symbols:

• A key: a reminder to stay locked in on his goals.

• A lion: a mark of leadership and quiet authority.

• A bible and a dove: a tribute to the faith that grounds him.

Even the lace aglets carry meaning: a detail almost nobody notices, except the person who asked for it.

It’s an understated boot, dominated by a white base and red illustration work, but every line has purpose. And of course, sitting bold on the heel: Saka’s No.7, now one of the most feared numbers in the Premier League.

The Furon v8 Elite: Speed With Intent

Underneath the artwork sits the tech that defines the Furon v8 Elite — a boot built for players who make decisions at full speed. Lightweight materials. A streamlined fit. Firm, directional stability for wingers who live on the shoulder.

It’s the modern interpretation of speed: not just running fast, but thinking fast, striking fast, and executing with precision.

Exactly the type of release that feels right for Saka, a player whose calmness is matched only by his efficiency.
