how flat?
top of the line balls usually do that, they have to be pumped at least 3 hours prior to a pro game (i think) or else theyre considered defective.

puma has a two year return policy, and puma hasnt been a sponsor for three I think, so I think no go

I honestly think Reebok will quit the boot market soon-ish (next year or two). They keep releasing boots that get reduced significantly in months. They released the Sprintfits, they turned out shit and were reduced to £50 within months (they're now as little as £18). They only just released the Sprintfit Lite and they're reduced. The new crop of boots is just shit.

What are you talking about the .08s are one of the sturdiest boots i have ever worn, they definitley will not break under normal playing conditions. I think your talking about the .06's

I also like the Valde (the model not the colorway). If it had a blue sign (instead of red) with white out-line (instead of yellow), it would look tons better.

That boot looks like a children's toy. How is the durability on these new reeboks (sprintfits etc.)? They look quite cheap tbh.

i've been looking around and seen that there is the umbro speciali and i really like them but they seem to only come in black, they cost £100.
then there is the umbro speciali anatomical and they come in black, silver/black and white/red/blue (my favourite colourway), they cost £60.
why the difference in price, are anatomical's the lower end version or are they a completely a different boot? if they are the lower end version, why are there only one colourway of the high end version and three of the lower end??

Valde's look pretty nice in those colourways, I dont mind the first one that much either they arent great but not really that bad. Reebok dont seem to make the best boots though, comfortable but most other aspects arent very good at all.

That is a lot of money for some Specialis, no matter how 'limited' they claim them to be.

Speciali's look pretty horrid. No doubt they'll be quality leather but if Umbro continues to make boots like that then theyre gonna find themselves in real trouble. Its like half their boots are really nice and the ther half are disgusting.
Ayresome
Oct 30 2008, 02:03 PM
I think the problem people have with Umbro is that their logo is horrible and garish. I reckon if they had 3 stripes on them, they'd be praised endlessly.
EDIT: Here is my, very poorly, photoshopped version of what they'd look like with Adidas stripes. I have limited skills on photoshop but you get the idea:

DoubleO7
Oct 30 2008, 02:25 PM
Adidas does have a big advantage with the 3 stripes but I dont think Umbro's logo is that bad. Its relatively similar to say Lotto's but Lotto make great looking boots like the Leggenda. Okay the logo is smaller but I just think the design of the Speciali's, especially these ones, is horrible. The colour just makes them even worse, I'd give them a 3/10 aesthetically.
juniorsheva17
Oct 30 2008, 03:40 PM
I'm with you adam, those three stripes specialis are really nice. I think that the umbro logo looks good on kits, but on boots its a little awkward. And it doesnt help when like on the Valor I's they just put SX in big caps letters, which i liked except for that part. The new Valors are crap imo.

When comparing them too the gunmetal manias they dont look the same at all...

Oct 30 2008, 05:10 PM
Its the dingy gunmetal colour that makes them so bad. The design is poor imo but on top of that the colour is garish, reminds me of the sharkskin Kelme's but a lot worse looking.
