If you look closely at his sole you can see that he has a mix of six removable SG metal studs and eight FG molded studs. I think he's been wearing this configuration for the last couple games. It's a mix of the two variations of Legends sold to the public. Weird. I wonder if the durability of the studs on the FG Legends will come into question sooner or later? From what I've seen they are seemingly a two piece, ala the AZT 90 IIIs, part after all.

He had the same thing done to his T90III's. It's not uncommon...it's called a mix-sole and is useful for soft grounds, but not overly soggy pitches. Many pro's take advantage of this.

if you look closely, you can see that some of the cleats are metal like the sg version, while others a plastic as in the fg version.

There was a dude on eBay offering the service for like 25 pounds. Basicly, you cut off the moulded studs where the SG studs would be and replace them with anchors for the replaceable cleats.

Well you know how the metal studs (SGs) are removeable? You can prolly get some FG studs that can screw into the place where the Sg hole are.

I got a pair of mystic's, they dont have this feature but they look and feel just as good. I assume there is no ZoomAir technology in the boot for obvious reasons but they are still leather.
