Umbro boots are so comfortable - until they fall apart!

Advantages: Comfortable
Disadvantages: Durability

...Background I have been doing football coaching now for almost four years and in that time, I've had several pairs of boots from all the leading sports manufacturers. Although I don't play competitive games, it is still important to have the right footwear as I will be spending roughly 3 hours per week in these boots during training and on the touchline during matches. These were the first pair of Umbro boots I tried after using Nike and Adidas in the past. The boot in more detail First impressions were that the boots were very well made. I was sceptical about having white boots as I was expecting them to have gone a nice muddy browny white colour after a few uses which to my surprise, never happened as the boots cleaned nicely just by wiping a wet rag over them. The boots were very comfortable to wear...

Review of Umbro Revolution XII HG Football Boots

Great football boots

Advantages: good support, increase power and accuratecy
Disadvantages: not very attractive look

...This is my favourite soccer boots. I've been wearing the Adidas predators ever since I started playing soccer. This boot has amazing support with specially designed studs and shape. The leather used to make the boots is soft, which ensures quality touches with the ball. The rubber grip on the surface provides enough friction that makes your shots become more amazingly accurate. This is really suitable for the name Predator. With this boots, you can score amazing goals from every where, outside the penalty box with a powerful shot or just an accurate drive to the far poast to beat the keeper. I personally love it when doing my freekick. The rubber grips gives me a great advantage to curve the ball more easily and with more accuratecy. Although is does not look as flashy as other F.50 or nike boots, but who care? If you are a good...

Review of Nike Mercurial Veloci Firm Ground Football Boots

AdiPure Trx Firm Ground Football Boots

Advantages: Soft Supple Leather, Quality Build, Great Fit, Value
Disadvantages: softer leather could be damaged easily

...Overview: These boots are outstanding, i have been playing football since i was knee high to a grasshopper and these are the best boots i've had, both in terms of value and performance. The boots are modern but maintain the traditional appeal of their predecessors, for those of you who still love your Adidas World Cups or the Copa Mundials, these boots are certainly fit to superceed these old favourites (having owned both of these previously). Quick Ref : Pro's Soft Supple Leather Quality Build Great Fit Great Grip (including internal pad) Ergonomically sound Tradition and modern design (somehow :/ genius designers at adidas) Great value for money Quick Ref : Con's Soft leather could mark easier than tougher materials - this concequently might also mean less protection (** i haven't personally experienced either of these but...

Review of Adidas Pure Adipure Trx Fg Football Boots

Adidas world cup soft ground boots

Advantages: Comfy, Last long, easy to clean
Disadvantages: Dont look as good as other boots, removable studs can be a disadvantage as can be lost easily.

...In my own opinion these football boots are great for durability, style isn't everything but the comfort in these boots was great.I never got one blister or sore feet after a game which is good. From my point of view there great value for money so shop around on-line as prices vary. They have removable studs and are easy to clean, the leather is good and comfy so a real buy for football players.The price varies from £62.99 - £119.99, so a lot cheaper than other big brands, Big advantage as they last for years, the leather is amazing for durability, lightness for players quick on there feet and fantastic for hitting the ball.A lot of big football players wear these boots so its proven to be a hit with football stars as well, all in all great buy!...

Review of Adidas World Cup Mens Soft Ground Football Boots

boots that provide impeccable performance

Advantages: very durable, strong, improves control and cheap!
Disadvantages: unsuitable for astro turf

...These trainers may not be at the top of the range in the style market, but I believe there are no others better for performance. Gone are the days where a good, strong boot was all the rage, with sleek thin boots seeming to provide a more attractive acquisition nowadays. However, in my opinion, Adidas Samba trainers are the best available if you want to sustain and improve performance whilst playing with your mates or indeed, competitively. QUALITY In my experience, these boots are long-lasting, reliable and provide much-needed protection for the foot, unlilke the many 'slipper-style' boots warn. I have had mine for around 3 years and they are still in very good working order and have been used very regularly for sports such as indoor football, squash, badminton. I have also used them for outdoor sports, in football, tennis and running...

Review of Adidas Samba Indoor Football Boots

The greatest boots ever?

Advantages: Long lasting
Disadvantages: None

...knows the worst part of football is boot cleaning so I love these boots! Studs The studs are made of a good quality plastic/rubber compound. I have found them to be very hardwearing and they dont appear to wear down on concrete which can be a problem when you play at some of the grounds I play at. The studs allow me to keep my balance on most pitches although you may find if the pitch is very boggy it would be better to wear some metal studs which allow more grip. Summary For years these boots have offered me perfect fit and superb comfort, the Copa Mondial is an ideal boot for players of all levels. Sure they may not have the wow factor of your predators or the flair factor of your pink nike's but these boots sure are damn good....

Review of Adidas Copa Mundial Mens Football Boots

Best boots available

Advantages: They are extremly durbale and withold a lot such as flooded pitches without getting your feet wet
Disadvantages: Expensive for football boots which you may wear once a week

...I have had these boots now for around a year and they are still going strong, still as comfortable as ever and in extremely good condition. I have them with molded blades which are for hard ground however they still work when it is wet however not as effectively as i did slip and slid a bit but only when the pitch is water logged literally. I believe these boots are stylish and do what they say which is to provide power. When you strike the ball with the laces then in some boots then you may hurt your foot however these boots are designed to help to create power in shots, passes etc to help you in your game. These boots come in many different colors which can appeal to many different peoples need there is the basic black, white and red but then there is red and black, blue white and black etc. These boots are a great buy even though...

Review of Adidas Predator Powerswerve X -Trx Sg Football Boots

The Defenders Boot!

Advantages: Built for sheer comfort
Disadvantages: Not as stylish as other lead brands but then does style make you a better player?!

...Put quite simply - this is the best boot I have ever worn throughout my football career. The durability and quality of leather are second to no other boot on the market. However its biggest appeal in the market must be the comfort of the boot. You could quite easily lounge round the house in these boots if it wasn't for the studs on the bottom! I can think of only one downside to the boot - many people criticise there looks? But then as a simple kick and head defender - looks are not the top of my priority! They may not look like the leading Nike or Predatior boots but they have every right to be placed alongside them in terms of quality. The fold over tongue have been kept by addidas as well as the superb stud control. There will never be a problem getting a full season out of one pair (minimum 50 games). The durability cannot...

Review of Adidas World Cup Mens Soft Ground Football Boots

A shop not to buy trainers or football boots from

Advantages: Cheap, Big selection and ranges
Disadvantages: Tests Patience, Staff not helpful

...A few months ago I asked in-store whether Sports Soccer had any jobs and they said no we have too much staff on at the moment..........really? are you sure about that? so why does it take me an hour just to find someone to ask for size 10 football boot? and then they don't come back for half an hour? and then they come back eventually to tell me they don't have them in my size. Even if you get a pair you will have to lace them up youself as the staff just disappear. I think soccer sports is great for price, tracksuit bottoms, joggers and sportswear. However if you buying trainers or football boots then you need a lot of patience. However it is better for choice that it's competitors JJB so you will have to wait unless you feel comfortable buying boots or trainers over the internet not knowing whether they fit or not. Sports...
