Well basically I have got 80 odd quid to spend on a pair of boots and I want to try something new.
Previously I have had TUNITS, hate them so please no suggestions for them, and Total 90 Laser I's, a great boot, maybe a bit too wide but loved them. I have never had a real leather boot so I was thinking Nike Lengends....
They are basically for mucking around in for pre-season so they would ideally be FG. I have quite wide feet and am a UK size 10. Ideally the boots would be available online and from UK based stores.
When the season begins I am most likely to buy a pair of Lasers II's the gold and black pair, and I really want them in SG but does anyone know if they will be realeased in SG as I have only seen the FG version.

To those who have ordered the Euro08 brown K leather Mercurial Vapors, do you have any sizing tips?
A couple of other questions.
1) Would they fit the same as the regular teijin synthetics? I take between size 10.5-11 for most brands as I am around a 10 & 3/4 to be precise and normally opt for 10.5 for K leather and 11 for synthetics.
2) Would you expect that the K leather vapors to eventually accomodate wider feet? My friend recommends that I opt for the legends II instead, which is cheaper as the use of K Leather defeats the lightweight objective that vapors are known for. Thoughts?

well nobody could have tried them on yet so i assume you would have to order the same size that you would for the regular vaps. and yes i would expect them to stretch a bit since they are of course, leather

Jus wonderin as I was lookin on ebay I saw some vapor 4 made in Italy are they any better than the normal ones made in Indonesia ?

All vapor 4s are supposed to be made in Italy...
On another note, I was wondering if anyone with Puma v1.08 trainers could enlighten me as to the sizing and what not, as I wear a 9.5 in my current Puma leisure shoes.

Do these cleats meet the criteria or are you just stating them because think they are cool boots?
Plz, i would greatly appriciate it if someone could give me some realistic and quality feedback.

lol nope. i got my voucher.
So anyway... everyone says adipure are ridiculously narrow and all. But arent they K leather? Is there even such a thing as a K leather boot thats too narrow because isnt k leather riduculously stretchy? wont it conform to the foot no matter how wide it is?

It'll stretch some, but even if the upper does, a plastic outsole won't.

O really cuz i got these predators for a gift about a year and 2 months ago, but they were way to big, so i started playing with them about three months ago and there are parts on the leather that COMPLETELY ripped so my toes are coming out, will i get a voucher for that? also is it too long that ive had the shoe?

Narrow? Vapors r good. Adipures are supposeddly even more narrow. V1.08 are kinda narrow.

Jun 8 2008, 09:12 PM
Considering some adipures just have some questions:
How narrow are they? They could'nt be narrower than say vapor III's could they?
I really like the master blue/ white ones, but in most pics the blue looks kind of bright, is it really that bright in real life?
Thanks.

Been searching all the past threads without success. I'm looking for recommendations on a pair of boots that has a wide roomy toebox with a narrow heel. I need this information for a pair of identical twins playing for our team.
Their problem is that even most of the wide fitting models still seem to taper to a narrow toebox and is causing blisters to the small toe, while with some boots, the front feels alright but the heel slips a lot. They've tried predator absolutes, Nike legends, Puma Kings, and adidas profis without much success.

Hey, check this shoe out, just make sure that they keep the studs tight, this is last years model,
http://www.soccer.com/IWCatProductPage.pro...t%20and%20upper in the pictures you can see the top view of how narrow it is in the heel and how it is decently wide in the toe area

I would say go for a 10, possibly 10.5. you should probably try them on though
Mr._Yellow_Shoes
Jun 17 2008, 10:52 PM
Definitly a 10.5 I have vapor 4s in an 8.5 and I could not stand the 8.5s, I tried on a friends 9.5 DB microfiber Absolutes (last years) and they fit great

it depends on the floor.
some floors are very slippery but some are normal.

I've used indoor shoes on turf without any problems. I don't slip easily and have actually found the direction change to be swifter than FG or even HG boots. It depends really how frequently you play on turf. If the answer is all the time, specific turf shoes are better since they tend to have reinforced toebox to prevent the toe area from ripping.
If you wish to wear with indoors shoes on turf, just make sure that the artificial grass is not too long, as the longer the grass, the more unstable you will be wearing indoor shoes and you might just sprain your ankle. The second thing to take note is to ensure that the length of your boots does not have too much space in front. Kicking into the hard rubbery ground on turf damages indoor shoes rather quickly.
