Unfortunatly Rebel have held off the HK07s until this 10 day blitz sale is over, wandered down to rebel they have the stock out the back but are not putting them on the shop floor until the sale is over oh well :< you can still get normal nomis for 30% off .

to all nomis users- are most of you thinking its more worth it to get the wet control? ive heard the dry controls chip and stuff..i wouldnt be playing much in wet with these as i have world cups..but the red spraks on soccer.com are looking nice

it doesn't really chip.. i'll get around to posting pics of my sparks sometime.

i'd get the wet control just because i find it does help control the ball a little better

i tried on the HK07s today. very comfy boot, they look even better in real life now i have to save up cos they were $290 i saw the instinct as well didnt try them on tho i really shud have

I bought a pair of Nomis Glove's today, they are the most comfortable boots i have ever worn they feel great so far, but i havent really tested them just walking around the house with them on. Although im usually a size 13, but they were way to big, so I got size 12's.

http://www.acasports.co.uk/product_info.ph...roducts_id=7466 They have them up to size 11....Hope this will help you!

Thanks man but i just bought a pair of nomis gloves because they were easier to find/try out.

hey michael has anyone had any problems with the strap that keeps the tougue down on the spark and glove? cos i know the predator line is very poor for its straps, keep snaping etc

The strap on the glove is about double the width of the absolute strap and streches more. it feels stronger than the predators one aswell. Hope i could help

Yeah one of the first thing I noticed about the straps was it was really tight. Sometimes I struggle to wrap the strap round the front of the boot!

oh good so it is stronger! i thought it was anyway but had to make sure cos i hate having it flap around when they snap! as soon as i get my HK07s ill post some Personal pics in my boots
keep a lookout

I bought the all-black Glove FG (my 2nd pair) and the Glove turf today.

I found it difficult to decide on the size of the Glove turf. I tried on a UK 8.5 which I felt was a bit loose at the back of the foot. I tried on a UK 8 and it was too tight. I took the UK 8.5 in the end.

Anyone else with similar experiences?

Edit - fixed the loose fit problem. All I had to do was to change the insoles to the extra set of flat ones!

It was a good Getty week! Congratulations to the English women's soccer team - off to the world cup! Our women boots are really being received well. If there are any female players on this board, we do now have a women's control freak package - let me know if you want more info.

Great work again Nomis's popularity is really starting to pick up quickly. Are Nomis going to make kits as well or stay with making boots? Because it would be awesome to have a Nomis kit in the A-league, coz IMO the reebok kits could look a lot better

Yeah the Reebok kits aren't the most spectacular kits i've ever seen.

Ah, but that's all about the dollars!


ejteK, did you get my PM?

lol Yeah good point, but it would create even more exposure, like a massive ad (Unless NZ knights wear it )

Yeah I got your PM Michael, I replied to it.

If by that you mean they're crap then id have to agree. I also hate how ALL the away kits are white. No imagination.
Its wierd tho, the nt is sponsored by nike, the a league has its own custom aerow II but all the kits are made by reebok.


Then hurry up and make some!!!

i thought my Gloves were a hair tight at first but after one practice in them they started to stretch a bit. now after a few weeks they fit like a...well, i won't say it I may play with the extra insoles just to see what the difference is though.

Hopefully the word was going to be "Slipper"



ejteK - didn't receive your PM

Just out of interest, how many people here have Nomis boots, and if so, which ones and what position do you play? I'm pretty tempted to hop on the Nomis boat for next season's boots...even though I bought Absolutes and Vapor III this season.. :S Oh and I'm a striker and speed is my biggest advantage.

So if you guys can answer the following, it'll help very much!

1. Position you play for your club,
2. The model of your Nomis boots

A pattern of preference might arise from this ehhehe

Cheers fellas

Forward
Spark

speed is my biggest advantage too, and they're not overly heavy.

i own a pair of black pearls too, which are a little on the heavy side, but the touch and control is amazing

Forward
Glove FG

Here in Ohio, there wouldn't be much opportunity to wear a Dry Control shoe lol. This is why I chose the Glove, at least 50% of our games have been played on wet pitches. The Glove performs amazingly in wet conditions, and even in the dry has much better touch than any boot I had previously experienced. Traction is nearly perfect in anything up to about 2 inches of mud.

Awesome stuff guys keep the responses coming!
I'm making an Excel spreadsheet with the data hehehe

Midfielder/ Second Striker
Glove FG (on my 2nd pair!)

These boots are arguably the best leather boots I've had, and I have tried out lots. Extremely comfortable. 100% waterproof and the traction is good. Not sure how much the grip thing works but if it does it's a bonus.

Winger
Glove SG / Black Pearl FG

great touch with both speed is my thing too but these boots don't slow you down one bit. perfect

well, then the other 50% are played on dry pitches..

we have played on maybe 2 or 3 dry fields out of our 12 games, by wet I mean thick mud/ standing water

Boot : Glove SG
Positions : CB/WB/DM

They've done me well so far, I go in for alot of tackles so they are a bit thin in terms of protection however it's a fair trade off since they are extremely light for when I go on runs out of our own half. We hardly ever play in wet conditions, most games are called off in order to protect the ground if it has rained heavily overnight.

Wow the Glove is looking like the crowd favourite!
Keep it coming guys, surely more than 5 people here have Nomis boots!

Glove FG / Spark FG
Outside Midfield/Wing

I like the Sparks, i love the Gloves. I'm a speed guy too and you don't even notice them as far as weight, great touch and very soft leather. I'd highly recommend them.

boot: Glove FG
Position: winger/striker

For me, these boots have everything you could want from a soccer boot. They aren't heavy and definantly don't slow you down. The most comfortable boot i've worn easily, and i've worn mania's, absolutes, vapors and T90's. Also the touch on the ball is excellent.... in other words, i'd recomend them

Spark FG
Goalkeeper

HelloNomis, i'm a female and am interested in your control freaks package though I take a size 13 US ladies. Don't suppose you make them that big 'ey?

Are these going to be realeased without the HK embroidery?

Or a White colourway of the spark boot? Really like these but not that keen on having Kewell's name/number on my boot.

Yes, I believe they are already available in the UK. Not sure about Australia... Where are you located?

UK. I checked your website and they are available to buy, just couldnt see if I could purchase them without the Kewel7 Embroidery. Or a pair of sparks in white. Or are there plans to release white sparks(minus player embroidery) in the near future?

From the reviews they seem a great boot, and I may purchase them as my next FG boot in about 6-9 months.

Cheers for help mate.

The UK site boots are currently shipped from Australia. You would be able to find those boots instore in the UK without Kewell's name on. Drop an email to nomis@nomissports.co.uk and ask them for your nearest stockist of those boots. They may even be able to sell to you directly.

Thanks
Michael

Michael, with regards to the Dual Control, is it a modified version of the Dry Grip?

I found very limited info on the technology on Nomis website. Perhaps you can explain a bit more about this.

hey michael will there be any blue sparks/gloves coming out in 07 or near future?
even a little bit of blue i know theres the blue wave but i dont like all the different shades of blue and white etc.

spark (red) is 99 dollars on soccer.com

if you have size 9US feet like i do, they'll fit and mold perfectly to your feet.. just giving anyone who wants a pair a heads up..

and yes, a white and blue color would be great to see

HelloNomis


Sorry to seem impatient but what size do your women's boots go to?

They go up to US9 on the nomis website.. and didnt you say you had a pair of the Spark FG...?

Sorry, the women's range don't go as high as 13 (That's a big foot!) - I believe it is size 9 or 10US.

Blue boots... well I have already posted the blue/white instinct, and you'll just have to wait and see (ie so will I!)

Dual control is an improved Dry Control. Many people don't realise that the current dry control boots offer better grip in the wet than any other leather boot (just don't increase in grip like the Wet Control), so the techies improved it to be even better in the wet and so changed it to Dual Control.

Got a new boot to post later today... Australians are going to love it!

Thanks
Michael

R9, yeah i've got a pair of sparks but I wanted to try a pair of the women's boots. I hope these new boots are the green and gold. BTW, does anyone know why the wet control boots are all mainly black but the dry control boots can be various colours? I'm guessing it's something to do with the material.

Sure are...

all i can say is wow they look extremely sexy
hey michael could you post the blue/white instincts i went back through the pages but i couldnt find them

OMG. I want a pair. They are soooo hot IMO. Ok, a few questions:
1.) What will they be retailing for
2.) Are they dry or dual control
3.) When will they go on sale

That's all for now.

BTW, Nomis

You talking about those Aussie Kewell Sparks? Dual Control:

http://www.shopnomis.com/au/DisplayDetail.aspx?which=199

Those white-blue Instincts looks nice.

Michael, thanks for getting back to me on the Dual-control technology. Is Nomis going to keep releasing wet-grip boots, or is it going to be scrapped/modified?

Thanks.
