how are the sizes of the absolutes compared to the pulses? like im about an 11 in pulses so is that they same for absolutes? also, is the red part on the black/red absolutes and the gold part on the white/gold absolutes made out of leather or rubber or what?

The sizing for the pulses and the absolutes are not far off. you would probably find that the front toe bit is slightly wider and I really found the new absoultes to somehow be lighter than my pulses.

they are a great pair of boots.

I am not too sure what exactly kind of synthetic material you call the heel counter? pvc?
It is definitely not rubber.

A great buy.

Cant wait for the other colors to be out. Also will be looking forward to MiAdidas .

yea mi adidas with absolutes good call palwudi

Im an 11 US too mate, and if ur an 11 in pulses get an 11 ion absolutes. and the gold or red part on the absolutes is like a rubber, There mostly leather tho. good choice man

thanks for the help guys. i needed to know for christmas since it will probly be ordered online. also, i've heard from some people that the powerpulse in the pulses affected their shots by making them go too high or they were perfect with even more power than before or just no difference at all. how do you feel your shots are affected by the absolutes if at all?

yeah they do make a bit of a diff. But its a positive difference. you have harder, straighter shots.

alright, im a goalie and i already have a relatively strong kick for my age (about 65 yards on a dead ball and im 17) so do you think the new powerpulse will help me kick it even farther or no?

Probably, because you'll have more momentum in your swing from the higher weight- the kinetic energy will be increased creating a more powerful kick...

definitely! because tyhey way powersulse works is it redistributes weight, (like 40 extra grams) into the zone where you mainly strike the ball, giving your foot more force behind it when u hit it. Its a power thing not an accuracy thing. Otherwise theyd be called accuratepulse.
