Any reviews for the sprintfit? rolleyes.gif


I would have a review up by now... But PDS is totally ripping me off. I pre-ordered my pair a week before the release date and I have yet to see my boots. I'm extremely pissed, to say the least. I pay $200+ (USD) and I expect my boots to arrive on time, not a month later. Anyway, I've e-mailed them and I'm still waiting on my pair. It should be 2 weeks from the point I get them, then a review will be up in the database.

Thanx mate. What colourway were you ordering?

I personally have a sample pair of the Reebok Sprintfit ( unreleased Black colourway). I got blister first time wearing them in a friendly match but I supposed this was normal for a new pair of boots. evillaugh.gif Btw, I was having a discussion with another guy in other thread about whether if there is any difference between the sample pair and the finished product. It's interesting to notice that there seems to be no major difference between the sample pair that I have and the finished one...having seen the images of the sprintfit in different angles at soccer.com

uNFORTUNATELY, I could not give any review even further as i am currently injured. Did you guys know anything about palmar fasciatis? thumbsup.gif I love the boots but believe me that they are not as light as the vapours and puma v1.
Ayresome
Nice pic, sorry to burst your bubble though but they have been released:

Evisu Football Boots....
I think it's a collab between Umbro and Evisu. specool.gif

How did you burst his bubble?
Ayresome
because i got the impression that he felt unique that they hadn't been released and he was the only one wearing them. looking at the link though i see they are released on august 1st so in a sense he is still unique but we have all seen the pics.

The first launch white/red. Haven't received them yet, I'll end up calling PDS once I get a day off work. Have you used Pro Rages? If so, how do they compare with your SprintFits?

Just looking at the blades on the soleplate, it looks like they've made lots of improvement.
G-Run
Pro Rages are the worst boots around at the moment =| I wore my friends last week for a while and they are so bulky and uncomfortable at the heel!

Nope, i don't have pro rages. Out of curiosity, I went to the local retail store yesterday and tried them out. Yeah..I agree with G-Run that the pro rages seem to be quite bulky. Putting them on for just a few minutes gave me the impression that they are quite comfy boots to wear. but After all, G-Run might be right with his comment who has had first hand experience playing 90 min wearing the boots.

Anyway, have you ever tried out any nomis boots? I have the spark blackout and just love the boots so much.

Yeah..the black colourway of the sprintfit is set to be released on the 1st August.

Azri....that's a nice picture. Never seen it before. Where and How did you get them? specool.gif

Have a Look at the insoles of the sprintfits. They are quite unique with dual density poron inserted!!

i read it straight out of the magazine and the magazine had the same thing for both
Typo
The studs and the heel counter are all I see that is different.
G-Run
probably a difference in weight aswell.

does anyone know the exact weight of the Sprintfits?
Predator 23
Soccer.com says they weigh 10.6 oz. I'm looking trying to see something major between the Pro and Plus. Don't see much. shrug03.gif I guess it's features not extremely noticeable like absolute and absolution.
G-Run
was browsing through www.ebay.de because I was bored and noticed the white Puma K Leathers are already out over there.

I actually really enjoy my Rages. I got them when they launched and I've only had a feel problems with them. My major concern were the blades on the soleplate (Which appeared to be positioned to close to the middle) and the lack of a "tight-fit," feeling. They are comfortable boots, but the SprintFit looks as if they improved the boots in all the right areas.

I have had the same bulky and clumsy feeling G-Run described, but it wasn't that often in my opinion. It really seemed apparent when I stepped up for freekicks and corners. I'd look down at my boots, take a glance at the ball, and wonder how the hell I was going to run up and strike it porperly.

I haven't really deviated from Reebok or adidas, except for my pair of Puma v1.06 TTs. I like the looks of what Umbro's making, though.

Thanx mate for the short review. I am pretty sure that the sprintfits will not let you down. I am looking forward to hearing from you with the review for the sprintfits soon. specool.gif

i don't think the gravity will be cheaper because no1 is buying them:(
G-Run
on Prodirectsoccer they reduced the price of the white/gold colourway to £80 I think.

Also there was a goalkeeping site a while ago that was selling them at £70.

are these the new v-konstructs?? whistling.gif

The new Reebok Integrity 07 on PDS. LINK
Ayresome
Decided on the moment I saw those Integritys that they will be the next boots I buy (not including turfs) so when I out grow my X Boots I will get these smile.gif

Also, I found these £150 shin pads in my PDS catalogue - must be the ones Totti is wearing that that thread in the Kitbag was on about before:
Pic coming soon - Scaner is broken, page 141 of PDS BootBible

how did you get your boot bible?

and are those the shinnies that appeared on Soccer AM? saying they mould to your shins and stuff? I sure hope they last long for that price!

PDS just send me them, don't charge me or anything, I'm not complaining though biggrin.gif
G-Run
strange...they used to send them to me but they don't anymore sad.gif can you request copies on the site for free?
Ayresome
Nah, they cost a fiver.

man this is killing me. i want to stay with my lottos but at the same time im really thinkn about trying out the new sprintfits...no place around me sells any boots that arent adidas or nike so im kinda screwed with trying them on...so absolutely no one has a review for sprintfits...they seem a little heavy to be "sprint" fits...yes im a firm believer in weight...if anyone has any info to help me out please tell me...thanks!
G-Run
If I was you I'd just stick with the Lotto's and maybe get Sprintfits in a few months when they've been out for a while and we know what they're like. I'd hate to see someone wasting £125 on crap boots.
57121K312_jc
true dat, integritys look class but all the new boots look stunning my mind is blown

Well.. that's a good idea.. just wait for a while and let's see what others are saying about the sprintfit.

I personally have a sample pair of the sprintfit in the black-blue-tetra colourway..(I have posted the pictures in a few pages back on this thread)...I'm not very impressed with the sprintfits to be honest with you. crying_new.gif Claimed to be the lightest and most comfy reebok boots...well..not really so when compared to other ranges of boots of other brands like Nike, Nomis, Adidas.

Im in love with my nomis sparks blackout...very2 comfy and I found them to be lighter than the sprintfits.

After all, it's all down to your own personal choice. thumbsup.gif

Good luck mate!!

OFF TOPIC. But I got my Vapor Ignites in today biggrin.gif they only got posted from Germany on Wednesday aswell so I'm very happy the now!

Here we go:
57121K312_jc
are they all the way around?
G-Run
They look uncomfortable because they look as if they go up to your knees :S
Ayresome
They dont look all the way round, but they are very curved.

i think the totti shinpads are way too expensive. i would buy some good boots instead:)
¤•«BARCHESTER™»•¤
i dont know why i am starting to obsess with zhero gravitys...does anyone have personal pics?
Mr._Yellow_Shoes
Does anyone have personal pics of the white/black/team gold puma king exec i fg
Adambayor
omg why are those shinpads so expensive??? I would never spend that much on a pair of shinpads!
Mr._Yellow_Shoes
Woah Dang ohmy.gif , i didnt even see that price, ill just stick to my 5 dollar shin guards, they work great and are crazy light, and they dont get in the way of my shots are anything like that and to adambayor, there so expensive because they are carbon fiber
G-Run
Yes, but does anyone have a full list of specifications for those shinpads?
