alllllrighty, a few questions now about the green and yellow HK07s

first of all, how much U.S. is it? the same as the other one?
second, is there any difference from these and the white and red ones
third, if i fit in 10 1/2 in mostly any boots then what should i get in these?
and lastly, how many of these/how long will they last?

thank you

Not sure US - it is AU$290.00. The white and red ones have the midsole wedge, these don't and are nearer the original Spark model. You should probably go for a size 10. There are quite a few of them in stock now, so should be around for a little while.



Of course! Wet Control is probably one of the biggest break throughs in football boot innovation since the predator! (Well, IMO!). A leather boot that gets grippier when wet will always be needed. It really is a remarkable technolgoy. Nomis has a two boot concept and Dual and Wet Control are here to stay! I've seen some of the future Wet Control boots in development and I have to tell you that they are bloody awesome! (That's my Australian in me!)

Thanks
Michael

what's the midsole wedge do? any advantages that the red/white HK07s have over the green/yellow?

The midsole wedge really does two things - firstly the comfort/injury factor. It significantly reduces the shock and forces that go through your ankle and heel - the comfort is superb! Secondly it raises your heel slighlty so your foot is pre-positioned in a "sprint" position. (A bit like having starting blocks). I know people might say that this is just "in your head" but people who have worn boots with the midsole in, say they feel like they pick up speed quicker and get to the ball faster.

Any pics??? =D

Thanks AHCL20.

Nomis, I noticed when I went onto the website it said they are currently out of stock. Have they started selling them yet and are they in rebel sport stores yet or not? Are all rebel sports stocking them?

Sorry for all the questions but I am so excited. I think i'll buy them. I just love 'em.

Was looking at the National U16 rugby photos and noticed that one of these kids had the HK07 boots on:



Damn they're fine boots!

thats a nice find mate.

Michael : Any news on the release date on the indoor boots and rough RRP prices?

Hi

At the moment the HK10s are only available through shopnomis.com. We have just integrated a new stock system into the online shops to improve the service, but we are just waiting on an initial stock level of the boots until they appear online as "available". Should be this evening.

Really not sure what is happening with the indoor boots, sorry.

Thanks
Michael

How long til they get into rebel etc? Im going to brisvegas in a bit over a month (for ashes- so excited) and im hoping to pick up a pair. Not huge on yellow boots but green and gold is different somehow. Patriotism i guess.

The new HK's look good, i like the green and gold, but i prefer the red and white

Both the HK's look awesome. I saw the hk07's in rebel sport the other day and they look sick but im not such a big fan of the 7 on the heel.

However both great looking boots.

oh wow. the green and gold boots are sexy!

can you make a special edition hk07 turf for me i want a pair so bad but i dont have a team so spending alot of money on a sg/fg boot would have little use for me, but i play week in week out on turf.

I don't really think Nomis turf boots have kicked off here in the UK yet. I have never seen anyone wear them.

I have a pair myself (Glove turf) and the fit is very strange. Maybe that's why people aren't convinced yet. (Plus the fact that they retail at 70 pounds, making them the most expensive astro boots in the country along with the Predator a3.)

Finally, indoor boots may just get the nod ahead of turf boots when it comes to development. Just that those who play indoors tend to do that all year round, whereas some people aren't willing to play outdoors in the winter.

i was on trial at everton recently and alan stubbs come and had a word with me and he was wearing the all black nomis boots i asked him about them he said " the boots are nice the leather is really soft like but im not sure about the name "

wwwwwwwoooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwww
they are awesome! release date? NOMIS RULES!!!

oh yeah and about that raised heel...is that in the HK07s white/red? just want to confirm (sorry)

Do they only cost AU$300?? For two pairs of boots?...that's less than 1 pair of Vapors in Swedish crowns! Too bad they only go down to 7.5 ..I have an UK6, so...

That is a crazy good deal, but its a bit irritating just spent $AU250 on the gloves and i could have the sparks aswell for $50 more lol is there anyway for me to get sparks for $50 because I've had my gloves for about a week, probably not but its worth a try

Don't worry, that is not staying at that price for very much longer!

In Rugbyworld this month you get a free catalogue from rugbystore.co.uk. In it theres a Blackpear sg but ive never seen this colourway before, its black with the white strip with blue edging round the Nomis sign looks good!!

Got a pair of these the other day as I see Lua wearing them in training. The "Kewell" ones. Comftable and fooking mint of a boot. Look the part in the Pompey Touth team

Hopefully they last a while.

NOMIS is the best make.

pompeylad andy chance of some pics for us?

hey Micheal, on shopnomis it still says that the HK10s aren't in stock. when are they gonna be in stock? pleeeeaase let me know soon, as i'm tryin to get them for my birthday which is next week.

and, if they fit wrong when i get them can i send them back and get another pair? and what if they're defective somehow. can you tell me how that stuff works

Hi, yes they should be available now - try www.shopnomis.com/au/DisplayDetail.aspx?which=199

Check out the returns/delivery policy on that website too for the answers to your questions, but don't worry sizing returns (as long as they show no signs of wear, still in perfect condition, have not got any dirt/mud etc on them) you can return them for a different size (you pay for the return to Nomis, they pay to have it shipped back). And of course defective products are covered under the standard returns policy.

Thanks
Michael

Why? Have they put the price wrong or just too low?

No, the control freaks program is over

No, the control freak's program is still open to people outside Australia. We are currently re-evaluating the price, because after all, you are almost buying one and getting one free!

I don't understand why boots purchased with the control freaks programme have to be shipped from Australia! Afterall you guys have a warehouse in the UK...

Because it is an Australian (Nomis HQ) initiative.

Can do, Ill try get a pic of me and Lua wearing them if he lets me.

Ha even better!! Possibly an autograph for me as well?

...addressed to ebay

My local stores sold out of gloves and sparks before i got a chance to try them on and i only just got the chance while i was away this weekend. Pretty impressed. I guess its no coincidence the fit is pretty similar to preds? A bit wider and lighter tho. Seriously considering that control freaks offer... Only thing is i dont start training again until janurary, so its the good deal vs getting the newest stuff.

Michael :Any plans for a members loyalty program for people who purchase the boots off shopnomis.com? =D , I'll be going for my second boot soon to go with my gloves.

Also, i noticed on shopnomis there is an image of the HK07's as the splash, perhaps add a direct link to the boot to make it easier to access on the site?

Check this out...... Nomis stepping up the stakes on the ladies boots.

well, someone asked me a while ago to post a pic of my cleats after they were used to see how they were holding up... at long last, here they are:

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y79/germa...ey/100_2103.jpg

i just had to clean my blackpearls because on thursday, i played on a complete mud pitch, so the entire thing was brown.. haha

Great pair of cleats, love the sparks.

Im new and have some questions, how are the dry control in wet conditions and vice versa? Also can you get the control freaks in any other colourways?

dry control in wet conditions, i've never actually seriously tried... wet control in dry weather still works very well

i think the stat is like 2x dry in wet, and 4x wet in dry. feel free to correct me michael

~alex

question though michael, is it normal for the bottom of the insole to wear away? cause you can't see the rubber patterns on the bottom of the insole anymore.. and do you recommend when that happens, to switch insoles to the other pair that is provided?

i used my sparks in the rain and my boots got soaked.
But I think wet control would be ok in dry conditions though

Thanks for that info I am looking at the control freaks deal, so wanted to know. Also is there any way to get different colourways for the cleats in that deal, I mean other than the yellow or blue wave sparks.

I think you could choose between two vhoices.. The ones you said and one more which I don't remember the color of!

Hi Michael
The control freak's program is still open to people outside Australia. Right?
I have placed my order, but the status is always "pending". How long will it take to get to the next stage?

Hi Michael,
I'm new and wanted to know if the control freaks deal could be for different colourways than what is on the shopnomis website

Also does anyone know what the tax is from Australia to the US

Kewell gives deal the boot

i can get HK07s but i can get Gloves for $160 aussie dollars which is a great deal
what u guys reckon as 1 is duel control and 1 is wet

That's a very good deal on the gloves!

The media is going nuts over Harry Kewell at the moment, the story is everywhere you look/listen. Australian viewers make sure to watch SBS on Sunday at 2pm - HK apparently has spent 5 minutes talking about the boots.

I just can't get over some of the stuff he has said to the media (without us knowing):

What a line: “But it’s just time to think about my feet.”

One very happy Nomis camp today!

I'd go for the Gloves - they give you "far better grip that other boots" in the dry anyway.


Happy enough to send some free boots over my way? To review them for the database, of course
