I keep seing posts all over about wich boots are better, ATZIII , Vapors or PREDS ?
My strong foot is my left one & fairly large, so when i try the preds or VAPORS, they are too narrow shoes for me. I know that there are other shooes on the market, but between these 3 kinds, the only ones for me are the AZT's cause they are made wider.
What do you guys think ?

Personally, I have white vapors because I think they're good for one vs. one situations because the boot is a lot slimmer than others. However, I find that controlling long balls takes a lot of practice because the shoes isn't that soft...basically just plastic.
I've recently just ordered Diadora Leggera RTXs which are similar to the Baggio's but with an Axeler type of sole plate. Anyway, I think if you want to be original I would go for this shoe because it is also quite wide like the AZTIIs and IIIs. They're also made of k leather so controlling long balls is a piece of cake and I'm sure you get a bit more feel for the ball too. Can't comment on this yet though.
Everyone is choosing Preds, vapors, AZTs and F-50s....so you'll walk on the field looking like everyone else. Dude, be orginal and choose something different. As I said, Diadora Leggera or maybe even Attiva could suit your wider foot. Also try Kelme Pro Master Reyes, Lotto Sheva Speed, Vento...there is lots out there. Soccer.com is a good place to start.

Its just that the sole is a bit more large. My left foot is a bit large , so if i try the preds or Vapors ,my foot support hurst me big time, but my right foot is perfect.
Pontelivo, thanks for the advice, i will pass by a local soccer store to see if they have those boots & try them on.

Dude, there isn't a better boot, it's whatever material, design, durabily, color, and whatever you want on the shoe. Just read around for flaws in the boots that other people's experience with them and make your own judgement after that. It's like asking which brand is better, nike or adidas, people all have their own opinion on boots. So just pick whatever has the less flaws or whatever you are looking for from your own judgement and buy it.

I have a question
I have a pair of Predator Mania SG's
The studs that came with the boot are a bit too long
are there studs that are shorter than the ones that came with the boot that I can purchase?
or is that the shortest that they come in?

regardless of if u have a bigger foot, barring any thing freaky with your foot , k-leather boots should and will do the trick...just patience...

I understand that the k-leather would stretch after a while, but the big problem is not bacd. The problem is my foot support, the cole i to narrow. When i put preasure on my foot, the side of the shoe sole does not reach the side of my foot, so it hurts. Compare with the AZTIII that i have, its just a bit less conprtable as the shoe it self, but the sole supports completely my foot.
