We've had this discussion in this topic before.

Im definately not going through that one again.

the boot design calls for a lace cover, and honestly how different can you go with the design of lace covers?
adidas f50's, f50+'s, tunits, reeboks range, and this nomis.. they all have lace cover.. they look alike because thats how lace covers looks like. i really dont think u can go any more different from each other.

Erm, did you not hear him?

A-League kicked off this weekend at last (I'm now a season ticket holder so the Roar had better keep scoring 3 each week!)

Couple of pics of new players...

I have a question for everyone that owns Nomis Sparks FG. I have a pair of the blue colourway. I have worn them for about 20 matches and have noticed that at the toe of one boot the colouring is 'chipping' off and exposing a material underneath like thin wool threads sewn together. It isn't hapeening anywhere else that I can see. I am a goalkeeper so it's not from dragging my foot when I throw in and I don't toe punt so i'm at a lost at what it could be caused by. I clean my boots after every weekend (2 matches) and ensure they are dry before returning them to their boot bag (which I don't zip up until match day so they can still 'breathe'.) Has anyone else had this problem?

wow i want a pair of Nomis Instinct FG but i dont have 250 to spend

nope.. i own sparks, and the material hasn't "chipped" away. but the toe is covered with green junk (not grass, mind you) and has lost its color. but overall durability is amazing

well, black pearls came today... here are pictures. they're kinda snug, but i'm guessing they'll stretch... right?






and just because i like them..

damn!!

can you take updated pics of the sparks please? just want to see how they hold up

Sorry to ask a sizing question again.
I wear adidas predators in UK 7.5. Which size should I get for nomis spark?UK 7 or 7.5?

Recommendation only would be a size 7 (half size smaller).

sorry if this questions been asked but on the nomis website it shows a silver and black flare but it's not avaliable in the Nomis shop. When will these colours be on the online UK nomis shop?

Guys, I was keeping this to myself because I thought the size, that I might've needed, would sell quickly if I shared the link, but here is a UK link for nomis sparks at £55 [LINK] probably posted before mind. also they are selling silver/black instincts (tp14)

tp14 asked about flares not instinct

That Flare model did not make it to the Australian market, so as the online store orders are shipped from Australia, this is not online. However it is stocked in the UK, so I would give them a call on +44 (0) 1244 681 007 - they might be able to sell to you directly or direct you to a retailer who sells it.

Thanks
Michael

Flare and Instinct on soccer.com for $250 USD.

Geegads!

Really? Where did you buy them from? You should take them back to the retailer.

i doubt the seller will take them back unless it was an ebay shop

Hmm, ebay... I'm pretty sure Nomis does not encourage any ebay sellers due to the obvious reasons of not being able to guarantee the authenticity of the seller/product's history. I'd recommend that you also email the pictures to customerservice@nomissports.com, although again I am not sure what the policy is on returns from a non-authorised retailer.

Sorry I can't be any further help.
Michael

got them from peter lorimer sports off ebay, i could glue them myself but kinda defeats the object as i gota feeling the glue may fail elsewhere, there genuine allright no 2ways about it - will email the pics on now

oh and another thing to consider before buying these, sure the leather is thin and you can feel the ball, but gawd you can feel a challenge for days after the game, got a kik on my little toe thats still black, felt like the guy had kicked me when i had nothing on my feet, gunna wait and see what the customer service team say, then decide what to do

LUFC_paul there is an edit button for a reason mate but you're new so i'll let you off, welcome to sp.

Hiya im Claire, ive been playin football since i was 7 for both boys, girls and now with a ladies team(im now 17). ive always played since i can remember in adidas predators but recently bought the newish red adidas absolute predators and was really dissapointed in them compaired to previous 2 models. so point being im looking for a new boot and im really intested in trying the new womens spark boot by nomis.
im just scared of paying 100pound for boots i cannot try on or see before i pay all that money for them. as ive always played in predators, would i be able to adapt easily to nomis womens? i have worn womens predator hysteria a few years ago now and they were by far the best boots ive ever worn. im from the Uk and play on some pretty bad pitches, so would they hold out the bad conditions?
i really need help quick as season started and i cant stand the material on these new preds for much longer its making my game poor!!!
thanks
claire xxxxx

Hi Claire

Where do you live?

Thanks
Michael

Hey,
I live in Blackpool. NW England.
I was thinking of buying the boots from footyboots4women.

Hi Claire

Ok, give Nomis UK a call and I am sure they will be able to help you out with any questions you have. They also sell direct and might be able to organise to get you a pair to try on in one of your local shops if they have a stockist near you. Their number is +44 (0) 1244 681 007

Let me know how you get on.

Thanks
Michael

is there no way you could just answer some of these questions? just from waht you have heard or from your knowledge?
it is not a problem ordering the boots i can have them soon off the internet retailers. from looking on the nomis site, there is not a stockist anywhere in lancashire anyway.
any help would be appreciated

Michael,

Is the only way to get a pair of Nomis Instinct/Flare SG Black/White in Australia to buy online from an international retailer? I noticed Lloyd Johanson wearing a pair in the Reds vs Fiji Development XV (the green/white) and have seen a few rugby players in Europe wearing them as of late (the Black/White SG). Just wondering .

Cheers.

nah mate you can buy them from Rebel Sports.

are you sure copious? because most rebel stores ive been to dont even stock the sparks or gloves and some havent even heard of nomis...even some managers
the only store i know that stocks gloves and sparks are the ones in mid city and bankstown.

Not in Brisbane...especially any SG boots.

I believe Nomis will be in 60 of 65 Rebel stores from December/January so you will start seeing a lot more of the boots in store. SG boots are limited in Australia - They are available in Glove, Black Pearl, Instinct and Flare. Although just checking through the stock levels I see the Flare and Black/White Instinct have sold out. There might be more coming in, I'll check for you.

Thanks
Michael



Size recommendation is to buy a half size smaller as the K-Leather will stretch to your foot for a great fit.

Durability should not be an issue - what do you mean by bad pitches? And which colourway are you after?

Oh that sucks, will have to wait then .

Cheers Michael.

pitches can somtime get quite boggy or realli wet/flooded almost around lancs. i just dont want to get the boots and them fall apart for 100quid or the good technology of them get ruened.
im only lookin for the womens spark and there only avaliable in that silver colour aint they??
thanks claire x

In those conditions I would recommend the Glove (Women's version now available). I know in Australia the Spark Women's is a mauve colour, although footyboots4... might have other colour variations. As long as you look after your boots in the recommended way, the technology will not be ruined at all.

ive just seen the glove boot in womens and i quite like it.
if i did go for the glove if i was using it in dry conditions too, would it still be affective??
will the boots feel too differnt from adidas preds?
are they not bringing out any more colours in the womens range?

I've worn my Gloves in the dry a few times and they've performed great, no worries there. only worn the Sparks once and they're a bit snug but slowly stretching out, need to give them a few more workouts

Yes the Wet Control Glove still offers 4x more grip than any other leather boot in dry conditions. The beauty of the boot is how the grip increases when it gets wet (hence the name Wet Control).

Couldn't really say about the fit compared to preds, I would hazard a guess that you would have better ball feel and comfort though.

The Glove is definately only available in the one colour (it's a brand new boot) but you may be able to get the women's Spark in mauve, bluewave and yellow from the UK - I'm not sure on that though.

I've also just heard news that 11 top women soccer players, (4 England, 3 wales, 3 Scotland and 1 Ireland) have chosen to wear the Women's range. More info on that when I have it. Whilst I'm talking players, seems like there will be a lot more Nomis visable in the EPL soon and another 15 Super 14 players want to wear the boots. Wahoo!

Thanks
Michael

Hey Ejtek, I am right that you live in Brisbane? I was speaking to the boss about the Black/White Instincts and he said they don't have plans to bring those into Australia yet (as all of the pros will be wearing the Green/White Instinct SG or the Glove SG). He invited you around the office...

thank you very much for that, your help is much appreciated and i think im pretty certain i will go ahead and purachse one of them. which im not too sure about yet lol!
i realli like the spark shoe and mauve colour whereas im not sure about the glove, but it seems the better suited for me!

Has Kewell signed with Nomis? I was reading an article in October's four four two magazine and it seems to suggest he is?

Hey Nomis, are these legit? http://search.ebay.com.au/search/search.dl...p;satitle=nomis

No, Harry Kewell has not signed any contract with Nomis. He has chosen to wear Nomis boots as he loves the comfort & performance they give him (adidas are aware of this decision).

Of course this is the biggest endorsement the Nomis brand can have and I believe Nomis are over the moon! How often does a superstar choose comfort over money?

As spotted by some eagle-eyed forum members, Harry first appeared wearing a pair of Nomis Sparks (with the logos cut off) in the FA Cup final. This was his choice and had nothing to do with Nomis. Obviously I did not mention this at the time as there was no contact between Nomis and Kewell, so we didn‚t know why he was wearing them. We were amazed! Then during the World Cup he continued wearing Nomis during training.

When Kewell returns for Liverpool he will be wearing a special boot made specifically for him, which adidas are aware of.

Good stuff eh!

Would not have thought so. trying to get in contact with him to find out where he got them from. He is not an authorised retailer so no returns policy would be in place with Nomis. Buy at own risk!

are the womens glove boot gonna become avaliable from anywhere other than nomis website?

Are those his own words..? lol
