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...

Bag Yourself a Bargain

Advantages: Good storage, comfortabe to carry, hardy
Disadvantages: Lots of people have them!

...Just before the start of the new school year in September I took my sons on our annual shopping trip to look for new school bags. After much searching and trudging around far too many shops looking for the perfect rucksack, we came across the Umbro Pro II Backpack. It ticked all of the boxes for both of my sons so I was more than happy to buy them one each (in different colours to avoid any mix ups!) and get home to put my feet up! Four months on and I feel as though I have carried and packed the bag sufficiently to be able to write a review on it! Design The Umbro II backpack comes in a variety of colour combinations based around blue, grey and black. Each bag is trimmed with white around the edges and the Umbro multi-diamond trademark is placed in four areas on the bag. Even though the design is fairly simple, it is...

Proper Fans Wear This

Advantages: Nice Looking, Big England Badge
Disadvantages: Dont Know

...the World Cup shirt from 1966 probably to try and get the team to be inspired and play better. (As we know England play badly and regularly struggle against rubbish teams and always lose on bloody penalties). The shirt is made by Umbro and may put 'cool' people off who like wearing the top makes. Anyway the badge has been made bigger than on previous shirts so it really stands out that your an England fan. The Umbro badge is in the top left corner as you look at it. There is little bits of white near the neck area and overall I think it's quite a nice looking shirt. Comfort ------------ The shirts are actually very comfortable apart from the bit where the badge is. The badge sits right on top of the nipple area and it gets quite itchy sometimes but this is probably because of what the badge is made of. Overall the shirt is comfortable and it...

Review of Umbro England Away Football Shirt

Advantages: good quality, soft fabric, personalise easily
Disadvantages: pricey

...it with from any major retailer and thus adding the realism to your loyal support. There are some changes from the old one with the shirt having two red striped down the collar and the umbro sign is gold. This is a great footie shirt and even better to support England through Euro '08. The only problem is it is a little pricey but for hardcore fans this may be easy to get over. Well worth a buy. C'mon England!...

Review of Umbro England Home Football Shirt

If you know your history?

Advantages: comfortable, great design
Disadvantages: will get new one next year.

...Nice shirt and a great improvement on th 05/06 shirt. This shirt is so comfortable and looks pretty pluck proof. Made from polyester it will never need ironing and will usually dry in less than an hour. COLLAR White ring collar and enough give to pull over your head without pulling your hair out. Also has the classic 70`s style umbro diamonds running from collar to sleeve. Retro! BADGE & UMBRO LOGO Ironed on. The badge looks as if it will stay put and is a nice 2d badge with the usual yellow outline to make it stand out from the royal blue. The umbro logo however is very thin and I don`t fancy the chances of it lasting on the shirt much longer than the 12 months the shirt will be played in! SPONSOR LOGO Chang is the brand (Thai Beer) . Ironed on and is there to stay. A bright white and you won`t get any edges peeling...

The F50 Boot

Advantages: Stylish
Disadvantages: Not the best material for football

...I never normally buy Adidas football boots although I thought I would give the F50's a go. Looking at them I thought they were some of the most sytlish boots that i've ever seen. Having worn these boots on several occasions I have realised that they are not really different than any Adidas or nike boot as I do find these brands very similar in trying to create a stylish affect instead of a practical one. I have also come decision that I prefer either Puma or Umbro as I prefer the more lether feel. Also the F50's do like to absorb water when it starts to rain as I found out on several occasions when you sudenly realise that you have bricks on your feet. I therefore have come to the decision that the F50 football is not the most practical ever designed and feel as i have said already that Puma and Umbro are a little better....

zumo 550 great for bikers

Advantages: waterproof, compact, easy to use wint gloves
Disadvantages: poor speaker quality

...I have owned this sat nav for over a Year Now.. As a biker I can not imagine better one, waterproof, easy to use with gloves, visible... trip to Nord Capp was just a peace of mind :) Great function of amount of petrol left in tank, specialy in bikes with no fuel gage (like my gsxr), and lots of other usable functions. For car... sound comming from speaker mounted in sat nav holder isn't perfect, but it's clear enaugh. Speeding camera warnings bit annoying, like in any other satnav, Generaly Great item for good price. Comes with all the kit needed to fit it to Your bike which took me about half an hour to put together. Great item for bikers. If You are looking for car only sat nav, than I believe there are some better ones on the market.... for bikes.... this one is the one to go for.... good luck with it...

Shopping for sportwear and accessories

Advantages: cheap, branded items, good quality
Disadvantages: long queue's, not much space to move

...I've been in many sports shops and found there clothing and footwear to be quite expensive. Then i came across sports soccer and found it was really cheap compared to other sports shops. At sports soccer they sell sports wear obviously for men, women and children. Here are some of the things that they sell there:- trainers jackets sweaters t-shirts socks footballs sport equipment like tennis rackets etc and mnay more items The shop is fairly big, but all there clothing is really close to each other, so there is not much space to move around really. They sell brand names like reebok, adidas, nike and mnay more. All there items are of good quality for the price you pay. There is a wide choice of items to choose from at reasonable prices. The last time i was there i bought a t-shirt (umbro) for my husband for only £5...
