They are the new Striker and Sonic models. Think they are available in January. Price point is between the Nine PincerBlack Pearl and the Magnet/Spoiler.


That is in the Nomis office in Australia.


See above - new range. Not sure on Nomis store plans...



Yes they are white/black Sparks. I will try and get another screen grab of them in close up.


As far as I am aware, all the boots you can see are either now available or will be in January (There are lot more too that didn't fit in the screen). Once we manage to sort out shopnomis we will have all the new boots on there asap!



The technology does indeed lend itself to goal keeping gloves and so it would be a sensible guess to assume that these would be developed in the future. Just have to wait and see on that!



It would be indeed. I will be converting all the different sections to be suitable for the web, so over the next few weeks nomisfootball.com will have all the clips added. If you like, send me your address and I will get one posted to you.


In all, I think there are 35ish new boots/colourways out by end Jan to complete the 2007 range.



I'd really go for the ones that fit and feel best on your feet when you try them on. The Glove would probably get the top comfort ratings, followed very closely by the Spark (All the boots have been designed to offer the best comfort as possible). The HK Spark features nomud, the midsole wedge etc and I have to say that really is a fantastic boot. Try it on in the shop and jump up and down on the floor - see how much less shock you feel through your foot/heel than another boot. The instinct and Spark fit a bit differently so just go for what you feel best in. Remember if you choose the Glove, go for it being a good tight fit when you first buy it so the leather will mold to the shape of your foot.



And here's the close up of the Black/White Spark.

thanks for the quick reply!

i might wait a bit to see the new boots coming out in january then...

so ur saying that the different uppers on the spark and instinct do not work better for certain sports?

thanks again!!!

will

one more thing, do you know if any of the boots coming out in january will be better than the HK spark or have any new features? (ie. should i wait, or just get the HK spark)

cheers

Michael, once again I have to ask, will the new models be released in SG?

Will soccer.com be getting all of the new ones in? For the strikeer and sonic models what is the upper amade out of?

Will the sonic, striker, hk07, and new white/black sparks be available to buy on acasports or holdall.com or newitts.com? If no, are there any other sites that will have them?

Those black/white sparks? look amazing!

Why would the spark be any less comfortable than the glove?

in that international boot thing where the glove and spark came first and second both boots got a 5 out 5 for comfort so im thinking theyre pretty similar

this site also has nomis boots. dunno if it will have the new ones though
http://www.footyboots4men.com/football%20b...&range=Mens
i know the site looks a little dodgy but i bought my black gloves from there and they are very good.

Erm, we have professional afl players wearing the instinct/flare/spark/black pearl... So wouldn't have thought so. 2007 will see the launch of boots just for rugby though.

Not to my knowledge, no.



In Australia only a few models will be SG. A lot more SG versions available in the UK.



Sorry, I'm not sure what soccer.com will be stocking. Feel free to email them to ask them to stock them though... The more requests they get for Nomis boots, the more likely we will get a fax with a request!!

The Striker and Sonic models are leather I believe. Not 100% sure. I will find out.



Again, sorry I can't say what individual retailers are stocking. Give them a call (as above - the more interest that is shown the more likelyhood that they will start stocking them). Shopnomis.com will have them stocked in the near future.


The leather is slightly different due to the Wet Control and Dry Control. The comfort factor would be minimal, just some players prefer the Glove - say it has a very slightly better "feel" on the ball. Personally I can't feel any difference!

I can confirm that the Rebel Sport store Mid-City has the HK sparks (red and white) and the black and white as shown with Simon in the photos earlier. I tried em on as best as I could and they are definitely larger fit than your "average" boots.

Also, somebody tell these idiots at sports stores to stop putting the electronic tags through the laces!! It makes it impossible to try them on as you cant even loosen up the boots to fit them on! Just put the tags through the hole and not the laces and make life easier for everyone.. Idiots..

Oh one last thing. Will Nomis ever offer any customising options like NikeiD and MiAdidas? Maybe they should.. Nomis will sell alot more boots.

I hope a store in Arizona can get some Nomis boots in soon, I really want to try some of these on! I give you major props Nomis for your boots, they look great. I may buy a pair if they are as comfortable as they are good looking

will all the new colorways (FG) be on shopnomis? having some only available offline in uk is a bit of a pain

I got my sliver/black Flares (look pretty sweet) the other week, went .5 half size down from my preds which are pretty tight but turns out the .5 wasn't enough , significant heel slippage and felt a bit too roomy anyway, so have sent back to bro in uk to get another .5 smaller, so hoping that will do the trick, thou take another few weeks to get them bak here in Canada

Thanks

This is a general sizing rule:

Regular Spark/Glove Models - 0.5 size smaller
Instinct/Flare/HK Spark/Spark MS - 1 size smaller
Others - usual

The boots with the midsole wedge seem to be the ones which fit a whole size smaller. Just don't ask me why that is...

Are there any boots (say releasing in January) that are wet control with the midole wedge. Just played for my school and I realised that only more rain is to come so I could do with the ball not slipping away from me, so I'm looking for some Wet Control boots. Also the midsole wedge and nomud sound useful as I could do with every sprinting advantage I can get as there alot of pacey left wingers and I'm always picking mud from my boots.

I know that the Flares have all the features that I want (Wet Control, Midsole Wedge, NoMud) but the Wet Control material seems very minimal in comparison to the Gloves.

Also, are the Gloves and Flares pretty much as comfortable as eachother, I know the Gloves are comfy, but are the Flares?

And finally, are there any Flare/Instinct or Spark/Glove owners that can compare the fit of the Flare/Instinct or Spark/Glove to another boot. - Nike Legend / Puma Konstruct / Mundial Teams - I am a 7 in Legends, a 7.5 in Konstructs (well, I will be, my Konstructs are 7 and too tight) and a 7 in Mudial Teams (again, my Mundials are 6.5 but they're too tight).

Thankyou.

found the hk07 spark pics on page 64... talk about footy boot porn..

lol yeh

I was just wondering, what's that little extra bit that sticks out around the bottom of the heel area of the HK sparks??

As there has been some interest in the Sonic & Striker models, I've put up the video clip:

Watch Nomis Sonic & Striker Video Clip

That will probably be the midsole wedge (reduces impact forces that travel through your foot/heel/calf)

If they are k leather why are they cheaper than the sparks?

The Spark is a one piece upper maybe.

Any answers?

Heyaz, just thought I'd clear up a misconception I had (and others have asked about) before I got my flares, the 'mesh' looking material on the front of the flare isn't actually mesh, its some sort of textured material that also has the wet control properities, maybe Michael can elborate what the material is but figured was worth mentioning it does have the control technology on it. As you can tell from my last post, dont know much on the sizing haven't worn them really yet and dont wear the boots you mentioned but hope this helps.

I know, that is the wet control material, but because of the design, there isn't much of it.

urm, most of the rest of boot, being the leather also has the control on it

i think he was talking about those plastic bits on the 07
shown in this pic

and


thats not the midsoul wedge is it? i thought they were just random pastic bits

That's the midsole wedges, it doesnt appear on the Spark or Glove but everything after the Insticts/Flares have it.

Yeh I was talking about those bits on the heel...they look kinda rubbery so prob is the wedge thingy

I ordered a pair of Flare online back in Sept. As you had indicated, the wet control material seems little compared to the Glove.

You should get Flares in a smaller size than Glove. I wore UK 8.5 in Glove and the same size in Flare was too large.

I've had the Legends briefly and they were the worst boots I have ever had. I think the Glove is not as wide as the Legends. I am not sure how to describe the fit of the Flare. The heel was quite high, and personally I thought the boot was narrower than the Glove.

If you think the midsole wedge and nomud stuff helps you at all, then by all means, go try the Flare. But you seriously cannot go wrong with the Glove.

I think I'm going to go for the Glove if/when I have cash. But what size would I need in them, I'm told .5 smaller but is that so the leather can mould? I like to have a little more space in the front of my boots so if the size smaller is for the leather to mould, I dont really need it. So if I'm a 7.5 in Konstructs/7 in Legends m I a 7 or 7.5 in Gloves?

I am a UK 9 in Legends and a UK 8.5 in Glove.

ok thanks mate

hey michael what wil be the available colourways for the new Sonic and Stiker models, and when will they be released in australia (month/date)
thanks in advance

Should be here January 07

No offence here, I think they're nice boots ...but they seem a bit high at the heel-as though its an American Football cleat.

*Jaw drops* Damn, them bitches is fine yo!

haha i agree with ejteK

ok i was at rebel in macquarie centre today and i noticed that the gold/black gloves had the no-mud stuff on them. i asked the manager and he said the were the "06" model. so im just wondering if this was true?

Just wondering...but, no tongue strap for those new models?

If they are 06/07 new stock, then yes, they will have nomud technology.



Yep, velcro fastening system.

Yea your right, the heel looks way too big and personally the heel counter reminds me of a giant marshmallow at first sight, no offense.

I'm sorry to say but I think the Sonic and Striker models look quite cheap close up. Sorry. But the double stitching is a nice touch.

Is shopnomis down again?

thanks a bunch michael they all look like quality boots and sorry for the lateness for my reply i couldnt get a chance because of christmas shopping

shopnomis is working for me typo

Anyone?



Ok so is it a size smaller in general or is it so that the leather will mould?

Got sonics!!! Have been away on hols in newcastle, was planning on getting legends or supremacys, but then saw the wht/blu sonics and had to get them. Were even better when i tried them on... Only Au$170 so would say they're bovine leather, feel great though, real comfortable and look very sleek. The heel doesnt come up that high in reality, its high enough to support but not to hinder. Only just got home and haven't had that much chance to kick around yet, but feel good so far, and look brilliant. Will put up pics and whatever later. Rebel charlestown also had all last years range, hk07, wht/blk dual control sparks, and new nine pincer and black pearl, which look like a totally new design (could be wrong...) and in wht/sil/red and blk/wht/blu respectively. Looks like the blk/wht/gold glove is still a current model cause it now has no-mud. No red sonic or any strikers tho.
Further to what some one else said i also hate how rebel feel the need to have huge security things through the top lace holes, sometimes through the laces to you cant put them on at all, and then have the boots like, chained together so you cant walk properly. Also look cause they might have put a smaller security tag under the insole, we found one in my bros new cricket shoes. Bastards.

haha its one of the ways they try stop people stealing, but yes it is extreme

also the little tags i think are the secondary measures to stop people from swapping high end shoes into low end boxes and buying them cheap.

i was talking to my friends sister who used to work at rebel she thinks thats what its for.. although she wasnt in the shoe department

anyway i havent heard of these sonics ur talking about, ill have to have a look or do u mind posting some pics up? cheers

edit:just realized they are on the page behind

these^

the pic above looks darker than they are tho, the synthetic bits on the heel and tounge ( and even the blue control leather bits to a degree) are metallic and shiny so they look lighter. I just re read my post from above and i sound all hysterical. Was kinda excited hey?

The small disposable tags cant be to identify products cause when i worked at harvey norman we had to put them inside the boxes of all the small stuff that was going on display. We didnt scan them or anything, they just set off the alarm when you go through the check out things, unless they get deactivated by an assistant. We used to put them inside each others jackets and stuff so that when you walk through the checkout it goes off and causes a scene. Funny stuff, til management put a stop to it.

Those look real nice
