Title: What boots do you use and why?
Post by: matty_11 on Dec 17, 2007, 05:19: AM: Hello everyone, i don't usually go on forums but i thought i would give this a go. Site looks great, plus im obsessed with footy.

So just thought i would see what boots everyone has and why they use those boots?

I'l start.....

I have mercurial vapor 3s for the summer. Nice light boots, an they look spot on in my opinion.

And for the winter i bring out the air legends. Nice simple boots, with soft leather.. Realy should have got black for the winter tho!

If santa was a nice man then i would have the new SLs for xmas, dreams eh..

Finally, the new predators are shocking, probably the ugliest boots on the market!

And @ topic I don't know what to say really, I used to have mercurial vapors, blue.. Only reason I bought them was because they didn't weigh much

Post by: Adi on Dec 17, 2007, 07:38: AM: Welcome to the forum! :hello:

Right now I have some Pumas but I'll be getting the new Adidas Predators soon. I like them because they are good overall. Good comfort, touch, and they are not too heavy.

I use these shoes to freestyle, they are very friendly towards freestyle but useless if it is raining :dontknow:.

Mercurial Vapor fs? Cool! I have a Mercurial Vapor III indoor I don't think it's good for freestyle.

do they have an overall good arch support...cuz there were nike vapors a while back that were so light they felt like nothing on my feet but in return they had horrible support and after a while i just coulndt wear them anymore
Title: Re: What boots do you use and why?
Post by: Adi on Feb 11, 2008, 05:38: AM: Actually, the heel support is kind of weak. It's a bit uncomfortable for me right now because I'm used to some Puma's who had serious heel support. Before that I wore Predators who also had good heel support. I guess these shoes are a bit similar to the Vapors when it comes to the heels, but not quite as uncomfortable. I think it just takes a bit of getting used to.
