I tend to get shin splints whenever I try to play more than once or twice a week. I wear custom orthodics and noticed that the Nine Pincer, The Spark, and the Magnet all claim to have a flat board lasted midsole which will allow orthodics to be easily worn with the boots. Does anyone know if this means I should stay away from the Instincts which do not claim to have this feature.

Is there anyone here who has also had problems with shin splints and can recommend a pair of cleats either Nomis or otherwise which would be the best for helping to prevent them. Thanks.



hey i think it just means that those boots allow the use of a custom orthodic
cuz a lot of the boot out there have thier own special shaped insole which makes the use of a custom orthodic difficult. The fit of the insole gets messed up (it'll be pretty hard getting your orthodic into a pair of vapors)

Anyways I have a pair of superfeet in my gloves and my sparks and they work and fit great.
I used to have shinsplints too and its no fun.
I'm not saying that these nomis boots are going to solve all your problems but they did help with mine
and if you cant find a pair of nomis in your area copas are pretty good too

Here's where im interested, im a huge fan of GREEN yes green boots beacuse my kit is primarily green. I have had the Green Puma V1's and Field Green Tunits but....i have a wide foot and also wear orthotics which means i havnt been able to wear either boot and have ended up selling them on a week or two later..........anyway, im wondering is there any GREEN Nomis boots and what kind of a fi would i get from them??
Anyone with a pair of preds and nomis be able to tell me if they fir quiet similarlly,
Thanks in advance


http://www.shopnomis.com/ There are your colours.

I have a broad foot & found the Spark MS to be fairly tight at first but after a few wears to be the best boots I have ever owned. Great touch & great comfort, you cant ask for much more. I wont buy into power & swerve simply because thats skill based & not a product gimmick.

I can hardly get my foot into Vaps, my King Execs are fine for width but not in the same quality bracket as my Sparks. My Manias are half a size to small so wouldnt be fair to compare them to the Nomis fit. Your best bet though is to try them on if possible.

is there any online shops from the us or uk that ships to the us where i can get some white.black sparks

here is my problem... i know that i want instincts or flares. i think that the blue and white instincts on nomisfootball.com are awesome, and much better looking than the flares. But, at my school, they water the fields way too much and i know that the wet control would be perfect for my field. Any advice?
ahhh3stripes
yeaaa are there online shops that ships nomis cleats out in the us?
im quite eager to know about them.
they seem like great cleats.

I'm sure soccer.com still stocks Nomis boots and shopnomis.com also ships out to the US (from Australia). If Soccer.com don't stock it - let them know you want it - the more they are badgered the more styles they will hopefully carry!

Here is the response I got from soccer.com when asking about Spark MS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for your e mail regarding the availability of the Nomis Spark FG MS.

Unfortunately the item has been discontinued and no new orders can be placed for the item.
I apologize for any inconvenience.

Please let us know if there is anything else we can do for you.

Sincerely,
A. Watkins

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any other ideas where we in the states can get these without adding $50+ for shipping plus $50+ for import fees?

Thanks,

It's the first Nomis Futsal Shoe. Does anyone have any news on this pair? I really want to buy them for indoor soccer for next semester ... tongue.gif

why does the wet control on the flares look different than the wet control on the gloves? is it different, and if so, how is it different... better/worse?
Whitey678
Two things to say ones a question and one is an idea!

Firstly the question is does anyone know where u can get all black Fg Gloves?? i dont want to get them from Nomis as i would have to pay import tax or whatever on an that would make them very exepensive indeed

On to my idea, Instead of gettin players to endorse nomis products such as harry kewell, why not get Dave Aldred!! As one of the worlds best kicking coaches if he endorses the boots it put some weight behind Nomis. I mention it now as i was reading the other day he has been invited to work with some aussie rules team, the first ever foreginer to do so!

So is there a release date for the futsal shoes / new turf range? You're right in keeping us on our toes tongue.gif

Also, is there any news on whether Nomis will be able to provide me with posters, shelf cards or any other promotional items for my GCSE Graphics Major Project?

Hi.

Is there a release date for the Nomis Indoor/Futsal boots currently in development? And will the Futsal boot sizing be the same as the current Nomis FG sizing chart?

Thanks for your time!

What happened with State Of Origin Nomis? There was only about 3 players in them, Mason the cretin, Costigan maybe & I think a bench player for the Queerlanders as well.

does anybody have both the flares and the gloves, to comment on both, which one is better?

Indeed, Willie, Costigan and Petro. Because Nomis are the official boot licensees does not mean the players are going to wear them - most are still bound by their everyday contracts. Michael Crocker was also going to wear them but he was left out of the squad due to injury.

Petro, who is not sponsored by Nomis, is the first Brisbane Bronco not to wear Nike in the State of Origin - that's a huge achievement for Nomis, trust me!

Here's a quick poster I made up for Nomis:



Oops, that one doesn't have the boots on the bottom - I update that when I can.

The fit is very different between these two models. The Flare is a much narrower fit whereas the Glove is wider. The Glove is also a one piece K-Leather upper so you will get more stretch and molding around your foot.

The Flare has the midsole, so if you are prone to calf and ankle pain, this feature could really help you.

Is this boot for Soccer? If so, I would recommend the Glove. The fit & feel is too good!

"Never trust a man who says trust me!" thumbsup.gif

I thought it was Petro but he almost always wears the Red/White T90s, nice pick up there. St George I noticed have a couple running around in the Red/White & I'm spotting the Black/White around the way. Good to see. Except now my next pair will no doubt cost an absoloute shite load more... ranting.gif
Holy Squami
Yes, my boots will be for soccer. I have been prone to ankle pain, since i sprained my ankle in November. i actually prefer narrow boots... completely doesnt make sense, because i have a wide foot... but the one thing that turns me away from the flare is that the leather does not look like that on the glove and black pearl. I have the black pearl, and i think that the leather is INCREDIBLE. i just don't wear them too much, because i think that the heel of the shoe is bulky and cumbersome. Is the heel similar on the glove? and why does the leather look different on the flares?

u should get a couple of the Gold Cost Titants players to wear the white and gold sparks!

I thought they would have targeted them early on. Especially as Nomis are Queersland brand after all. Just as long as they stay away from Walker. That guy is a living, breathing cancer. Finally get Delaney out of those bloody F50s... thumbsup.gif
laughing_man
Seeing that Nomis is conveniently a Queensland brand, what shops sell them?

Like, once the Nomis Futspeeds are announced and for sale ... (apart from ShopNomis.com) what retail store can you buy them from? Rebel Sport? NomisFootball.com only says Soccer World and Athlete's Foot for Brisbane =/

PS: God damnit, can't wait for a pair of Futspeeds. Hope they make a HK07 version too tongue.gif

That's strange as there are lots of stores in Brissy - Chermside, Albany Creek, Queen Street Mall, The Gap, Carindale, - loads more. I will ask them to update the stockist list. Try most Athlete Foots, Rebels, Sport Powers and soccer specialists.

Soccer World has a fairly big selection of Nomis boots, its basically my second home haha.
laughing_man
Which Soccer World store has more variety: the Lutwyche or Upper Mt Gravatt store?

I visited the Lutwyche store, they did have a few pairs of Nomis boots.

Maybe just the way it is constructed? I would definately recommend the Glove for the better leather feel.

Just got my Silver/Dark Silver Sparks in the mail from soccer.com. Fit is pretty darn nice at a half size smaller than my Puma Kings. They feel pretty nice just walking around the house. Hopefully they impress as well on the field.

They impress alright! I've scored a scorcher from outside the box with them , didnt score a goal all year with my gloves tongue.gif

me in action with the Sparks, number #11 with the Volley which hit the post. Dont laugh at the quality of football, it is all age amateur division!

Well, I would say that I am pretty impressed with the shoe. I do have a couple of niggling complaints, but don't interpret them too strongly. First, one stitch popped on the outside of my left foot where the stitching met the outsole. It seems like the friction between the outsole and the stitch was just a bit much. There is no other place on the shoe that looks like this condition would happen again, so as long as it stays in check, no problemo. I think the fit, lengthwise, is just about right (1/4" free), but my foot seems to have a little side to side movement in the toe box. It may have been better to buy another half size smaller and let the k-leather do its business. I think I may end up using both insoles to firmup the fit in the toe box, but I'll give it a few more outings before I try that.

The leather is very nice as far as feel of the ball. I felt very confident out the gate and felt the shoe worked well when it came to controlling the ever important first touch. I did feel opponent cleats a bit more than I did in my Kings!!!

Hope this helps.
