Historical spike loved by heroes VOL.6 Difference between "MADE IN WEST GERMANY" and "DESIGN PUMA WEST GERMANY" · Part 1

Some of you who see this column seems to have the question of why they continue to talk about spikes like Parameco (or Mexico Light) many times in the case of Puma. At this time, I wanted to recognize the fact that "there is a model made by West Germany before the Parameco", he made the difference between "West German made" and "Designed by Puma in West Germany" (+ background of birth of Paramecoho) in 2 times I will explain it over you. The first part is about the Japanese football world and Puma spike shortly before Parameco is born.

(I started spike blog.https://maradonaboots.com/To those of generations who already had a famous parameco at the time of starting soccer and that was a spike of admiration, I wonder why I bother explaining things about West Germany's Puma spike in detail There seems to be someone who is.

This time, I would like to talk about the time when Paramehiko was born. Figure 1 shows a typical spike of PUMA around 1982 (about 3 years before Paramehiko's debut).

The Belt Meister is a fixed model made in West Germany that I introduced a little before, and it was a super luxury item that general players longed for.

At that time, there were two types etc as young people like me as well as a price range (about 10,000 yen) that somehow seems to reach.

"S" before the model number probably represents domestic production.Aside from the details, the difference in appearance between the top and bottom (luxury items and others) was the color of shoe tongue and sole (in case of replacement type).

The point is, "White shoe tongue is made in West Germany (luxury goods), and what is not it is black shoeders"And in the case of a replacement type, it was a recognition that black · yellow soles are made in West Germany, black · white is inexpensive version (cheapest saying).

Figure1 80Puma spike early in the era. The price of the top and bottom models is about twice as great. A longing to white shoe tongue will grow.   
The 1982 World Cup god, the Yomiuri club at that time, Mitsubishi, and Yamaha's Japanese national team players also wore white tongue puma, and for me who started to be absorbed in soccer at that time, white tongue became a longing spike. It was. Of course, Paramehiko wasn't made yet, so no one was wearing it.

 Figure2Paramehiko is born1It is a picture a few months ago. at that time16The supplier of Japan (All Japan) aiming for the Olympic appearance for the first time in years was PUMA.

Winning the Socrates' loser Corinthians in a reinforced match before the qualifying round, expectations for qualifying have increased. All the players are wearing a model made in West Germany. Basically it is a white shooter,
7The Teru player of the number may be Torrero introduced before.
  

Many models that tickle the psychology of such general players intensely appeared around the year 83 (Figure 3).

The price is affordable, and moreover, the PUMA SPIKE, which looks like the one made in West Germany, is very attractive to the young man who aims for "Nanchato Maradona" like me.

However, in order to keep the price down, it was not made in West Germany, which has high tariffs, but a domestic product (of course, the type of leather is also different).

Because Puma can not write a lie, in the shoe tongue "
MADE IN WEST GERMANY"not,"DESIGN PUMA WEST GERMANYIt was written as(I do not know the difference if I do not see it nearby).
 

Made in Japan is a brand now, but since it was a West German syndrome, my longing for genuine West German spikes continued to grow.

On the other hand, those who started to buy soccer spikes around this time would have taken it for granted that Puma spikes were white tongues.

In addition, although it may have been spent without feeling the difference between "MADE IN WEST GERMANY" and "DESIGN PUMA WEST GERMANY", knowing the price difference in Figure 1 and the background of the spike in Figure 3 There are enormous differences in our generation.

Well, at this time other companies have also announced new spikes one after another, but Puma has released even more innovative Japanese models.

That is the Primero (above) in Figure 4. The coloring was unusual for soccer spikes at the time, and I felt it was very unique, but when I look at it now, the design of the white part is the same as Paramehiko (lower left).

After that, the white color did not become popular, but the leather cutting pattern is inherited by Paramehiko. At the beginning of its debut, it was made of two-toe leather, and then the Primero Grande with toe stitching (like Kopamun) appeared (upper right), and probably incorporated these techniques and was born to fit the Japanese foot shape. I imagine it's Paramehiko.

In the past, it seems that Parmahiko of the Primeiro pattern was on sale (lower right), I think that former Jubilo's Hattori was wearing.

It may be a remnant of Primeiro that the part of the paramehiko heel is white. This part was useful very much later to distinguish Parameco from afar. Perhaps, I might have tried to distinguish it, but ....
  

Unfortunately, the Japanese national team who fought wearing Puma products was defeated in the Los Angeles Olympics qualifying in April 1984, and the Japanese Primero that appeared after that was Puma's liver model to dispel that unpleasant image. It seems that it was.

At the time of Primeiro's announcement, Pele players who participated specially in the retirement game of Kamamoto at the summer of 84, and athletes who selected the Japanese league of the opponent were using.

Kazu also wore it during the Brazilian era (Fig. 5). Mysteriously, Puma's spikes, who came to Japan at the Toyota Cup, were also worn by Argentina's Burruchaga, who liked the black tongue (Fig. 6).

Puma's new product was also used by national players, and it seemed that a certain evaluation was obtained.

However, the Japanese representative supplier changed from ASCII to the Korea-Japan regular match in the fall of 1984 and won the enemy soul Seoul for the first time (Figure 6 right, 3 wins, 7 losses 2 minutes at this time) .

The Japanese delegate, who got a big momentum for the World Cup qualifiers with this victory, won the final qualifying at the end of October 1985 despite his struggle.

In the legendary Japanese-Korean confrontation that everyone knows, the prestigious Paramehiko debuts, but next time I will introduce the legendary of the gear at that time to me. (The photo is quoted from "BOA SORTE KAZU" Miura Tomoyo, Football Magazine, Football Digest, Eleven, Number etc)
