Along with the plethora of new additions, revamps, and balance changes to League of Legends in 2025, the dev team also shared that they will be adding some new boot upgrades to the game.
We will take a look at what we can expect to see once the first season of 2025 starts in January 2025. As with every new League of Legends update, we can expect some drastic meta shifts either because of the new neutral objective, early-game aggression rewards, or even the regenerating Nexus turrets.

League of Legends Season 1 2025 New Boot Upgrades
We will take a look at the new Boot upgrades that will be added to LoL in Season 1 2025. To earn the ability to upgrade Tier 2 boots, you will need to complete at least 2 out of 3 Feats of Strength (pun intended). Here are the objectives that count as a Feat of Strength:
- First Blood
- First Tower
- First 3 Epic Jungle Monsters (Drakes, Herald, any 3 Void Grubs)
Another thing to note is that since Cassiopeia cannot buy boots, she will still be getting an upgrade. Another requirement is that you need to be level 15 to be able to upgrade your boots.
