you answered your own question...your feet are used to vapors...i takes about a week or 2 to get used to new boots, wear them in practices and if you have another pair wear the other ones in a game so you have no problems in games smile.gif

those diadoras are extremely sexy by the way

WOW talk about a bitch to clean. They still look awesome!

I was gonna post them earlier, I reckon they'd be alright to clean if you didnt use them on wet/muddy pitches.

What does bleach do to your boots? becuase I was thinking about getting the konstrukt 2s (in white) and maybe bleaching them or popping them in the wash every month or so.
CubasGreatest
hey, are the Konstrukt IIs gonna be Kangaroo or just full grain leather? cause someone said "again with the full grain leather, why not kangaroo?" and last i thought, the Konstrukt Is are K-Leather.

also, that leather does not look like full grain. it looks too soft
KenNY-
PDS says full grain leather
CubasGreatest
hmmmmmmmmm.....if i'm not mistaken, that'd be the first full grain boot that i've seen for $180 U.S. or w/e it is. i'm still not convinced
ejteK
Konstrukts have always been full-grain leather lol.
Typo
Soccer.com says that they were k...
ejteK
Mmmm...the manufacturers say they're Full grain...I know which one i'm going from. Soccer.com is fairly common for having mistakes in their descriptions, often using generic details from previous, similar items. But you can check the Puma website, they're full grain mate, we've had this argument in here before, it was long and strenous so i want to avoid another one like that if possible.

Very nice konstruct 2s!!

As if I was almost tempted to buy those yellow v1s, soccer.com makes them look: sad.gif -ish
Here are some better pics which make them look half decent, but still disappointing: http://auction1.taobao.com/auction/2201/it...20bfdb28b.jhtml

Another better pic!! Is it me or do the yellow V1's on soccer.com look slightly 'deformed?'

I think they are full grain kangaroo leather..I'm sure Puma wouldn't put out a high end boot without k leather on it. Just vdoesn't make sense. When I felt the leather on them it was VERY soft..
KenNY-
So what? King execs' leather are extremely soft...and they're full grain...
ejteK
I guess it just goes to show that full grain can be very soft too.
G-Run
Just noticed on PDS they no longer have the gold Pumas up.. they have the indoor/turf version but they dont have the studded version that was £170.
Ayresome
That's good news for me then smile.gif maybe the tf versions aren't too popular so I will be one of very few to wear them, probably because most of their buyers will be collectors so they want studded version instead.

what? weren't the King Execs Kangaroo as well?
KenNY-
Nup...both of them are full grain
but they're (especially the exces) really really soft though :S

just wondering, but does the shower trick work with the V-Konstrukts? or no?

the only site i checked on google told me the wrong thing then...lol it even had it in bold :s

Nope they're Kangaroo leather for sure, check pds or soccer.com.
Timho
they are not kangaroo leather!
CubasGreatest
i still don't believe that the Execs or the Konstruckts are full grain. they might be FULL GRAIN KANGAROO but not full grain. they're some of the softest leather i've ever felt and full grain does not feel like that. also, why would a company put out two full grain boots at an expensive price? the most expensive that i've seen full grain boots is like 70 or 80. there's no way they're full grain
KenNY-
well official puma site says 'full grain leather' for the Konstruckts

Juventus_supporter
Konstructs is a totaly different boot, its not even supposed to replace the exec.
Soccer.com= "Supersoft and Ultrathin kangaroo leather",
soccercorner.com= "ultra thin Kangaroo leather"
shop.bigsoccer.com="UPPER: Supersoft and Ultrathin kangaroo leather"
soccerpost.com="finest supersoft and ultra thin Kangaroo leather"
shopping.com="Primary Upper Material: Kangaroo leather"
worldrugbyshop.com/="Upper Material: Kangaroo leather;"

soccerpro.com="UPPER: Supersoft and Ultrathin K leather"
camposocccer.com="UPPER: Supersoft and Ultrathin kangaroo leather"
zappos.com=" ultrthin K leather upper"

Some websites didnt even mention the leather but i came across only one that said full grain! And timho don't say they're not if the statistics are against you, or do you know better then some of the most leading soccer websites!?! Maybe you ran your own tests? Mind showing us the results?
KenNY-

lol, about time. cased closed. those and the Kings are Kangaroo
KenNY-
I think I'll trust official Puma site thx
Sky
US sites tend to copy from each other...
Juventus_supporter
You'll trust the official puma website that the konstructs are full grain, it doesn't say that about the EXEC. Why is it so hard for you to accept that you were wrong!!!

I live in France, so i think it would be difficult for you to get them !! laugh.gif
I'm looking on soccer.com, PDS.com, justsocca.com, but i can't find them !! If i find something, i'll tell you !
Ian Dowies Barmy Army
Theres enough websites that say they are full grain aswell.

Puma = "Ultrathin and Lightweight fullgrain leather"
Prodirect = "Upper:- Supersoft, thin and lightweight full grain leather upper" "The extremely soft full grain leather upper"
Justsocca = "Ultrathin and lightweight full grain leather"
Newitts = "UPPER: Ultra-thin, lightweight, full grain leather "
Acasports = "supersoft, thin and lightweight full grain leather upper"
footy-boots.com = "utilises a super-soft, thin and lightweight full grain leather upper"
eastbay = "Supersoft and ultrathin full-grain leather upper"

There is websites saying it is K leather and others saying it isnt.
Couldnt somebody who has a pair check for us whistling.gif
KenNY-
lol everyone get over it now kk

oh and thx S.P.Q.R smile.gif
Juventus_supporter
Actually puma.com doesn't say that and neither does prodirect and justsocca actually says leather and i cant be bothered checking all those other websites but it wasn't a good half of the websites so i don't think i'll believe the rest of them either!!! And why would you lie for, its just a pointless arguement which i already won! PS eastbay says K-leather aswell, so i'll be damned if any of those sites are actually true!!!!!
