Victor Valdes Penalty boots VV1 with QR code
Brazilian company Penalty are working on developing a new football boot, VV1, for 2012 with the help of Barcelona keeper Victor Valdes. But, unlike any traditional boot creation, Penalty are putting this one front and center of the limelight, allowing fans the opportunity to learn more about them as they are being developed. From the image above, you will notice that the Penalty VV1 boot is equiped with a QR code printed on the side of the boot.
When scanned, fans are taken to a website where they will be updated with information on the boot as Penalty develop it. It is a pretty simple idea that offers an excellent opportunity for fans to see how a company creates a boot.
Victor Valdes debuted the White/Black prototype this past weekend vs Real Zaragoza, and the Penalty site has since been updated. Their goal with this one is to continually have fans coming back to see what new information is available on the boots. It will be interesting to see how fans take to this one and if it turns out to be an ingenious marketing strategy!
