Qatar set a new record by displaying the world’s largest football boot at Katara Cultural Village, where hundreds of people gathered to witness the spectacle.
The world’s largest football boot is 17 feet long, 7 feet tall, and weighs approximately 500 kg. The same fiber, leather, rexine, foam sheet, and acrylic sheet used in football boots are used in this.
The boots shown are white with three slanted thin lines, but specific customization is possible. After seven months of work, the massive sneaker was completed.
