Just wondering, as one of my f30's has split slightly on the inside of the foot, which will only get worse. I'm looking to get a new pair of boots, but want to make an informed decision. Well, just don't want to buy the latest piece of **** rooney ronaldo, metatarso ball busting boots.

I'm more of a traditional guy, black boots all the way (If i had the balls/was actually decent I'd go for pure green ones mind), with the last 2 or 3 seasons always blades. I wore some studs during that type and they didn't seem comfortable :-/ maybe weight distribution wise.

I'm thinking of getting some kappa gladiatores, bit fed up of the nike, and addidas ranges to be honest.

Umbro Speciali's mate. The best boots you'll ever get. trust me, go down the sports shop and try a pair on, I guarantee you'll walk out with a purchase.

Me personally, I wear Adidas, always worn em, feel most comfortable in em.
Had nearly every range of predator going (£100+ ones). Went for a cheap option one season and bought some Umbros for about £35. Only played 1 game and 2 studs had already come out, they're a lot more uncomfortable than blades too, as the screws dig in under the soles.

Just got a pair of F50's on the cheap, as they were the very last pair in the shop and they were display managed to get them for £40 when they should've been £120!
I think if you want a decent pair of boots you're looking at spending minimum £50 - £60 they're always the most comfortable and don't fall apart, I've had pairs that've had 2 - 3 years use and still going good.

I think around 40 notes is enough 60 probably max.

Most of them look identical, just either they aint metal blades or the materials different.

When I was little my parents allways insisted I got Umbro, I've always kind of disliked them since then, especially when I always use to want those ronaldo 9 nike boots that were out around 2002 I think. lol.

Umbro ones looks quite good, they remind me of lotto stadia 90's. Nice design, not too flash.

Like I said pot, my f30's one of them split, and the front bit is going as well. What colour you got I got black and white. Nice boots definitely my favourite current flash ones going.

A cleat is a type of shoe designed especially for sports played on grass or dirt, such as soccer or American football

Puma King's are sick, and combine the best of old and new. They were good enough for Diego...
