No not really. We had this discussion before and it`d be stupid discussing it again. They aren`t the same and if you don`t believe me ask an adidas salesman. I asked one of them and he said there are differences even though they both look very similar.

I know we had the discussion before, and we came to the conclusion that they were the same, or at least the majority did. I'll try and find it..

VAT is value added tax. If I'm not mistaken, you only have to pay it if you live in the same country as the place that you're buying. So since you live in AUS, you shouldnt have to pay VAT since the company is in UK. I think thats right.
Sky
^ no, you pay VAT if you live in a country that's a member of the European Union.

Everyone seems really excited about the .7 tunits. I haven't heard of any problems with the studs falling out or stripping etc. with the .7's. Is this b/c no one has really had them long enough to tell, or did Adidas fix that problem?
Footfield119
^Adidas claims they fixed the stud & chassis problems, but I'm not sure if they did or not.

So only people that live in European Union pay VAT?

By the way, soccer.com brought the electricity uppers and now the electricity starter set both in VERY limited size. How can they get more?

i just got my new insoles and iv noticed that some of the insides of the threads are gold and not silver? but like really random ones, 2 of the heel ones, and it was like 100x harder to get my studs in, took ages!

If you live in the European Union and the shop you buy from does so, too, you pay the VAT / sales tax, whatever you want to call it, of the country the shop is situated in - but no duty charges or import taxes.

If you live outside the EU you do not pay sales tax but duty taxes. Most times it amounts to the same.

VAT is calculated as 17.5% of the product you're buying.

Thanks for bringing that up, I could never remember to post about it. I got my comfort insoles when i ordered with my .6s and my lightweight insole with my .7s. And my chassis holes are gold just on the holes that nanny said, and ONLY on my lightweight chassis. Nanny, did you buy lightweight or comfort?

Well I also have samba classics. My friend folds the tongue backwards underneath the laces for a tongue-less look, but I just leave my tongue up and don't do anything. When I play futsal I tie my shoes really tight, and as a result the tongue doesn't slide to the side. I tried folding the tongue copa style but it didn't really work!

I am not sure, I thought it was a colour before but then I saw these: http://www.soccer.com/IWCatProductPage.pro...652#imageClose1 - Adidas Profis.

It probably is something to do with the leather.
Footfield119
Just looking at my eurosport and it says theyre hand made in germany, interesting fact haha.

Profi's are K leather vs. the 7406 Calf leather. I would love the Profi if they were in a more neutral color and not bright blue.
smithxi
yo it's real simple to dye leather. I turned some bright orange diadoras black. all you need is feibings leather dye. It would work well on the whites, but then you probably loose some of the look of the shoe, like the stripes would be black, then you might as well just get a copa and black it out if you want to, or a puma top di black.

the profi is really called the adidas profi liga, and it was the same price it is now being sold for, but it came in black. i noticed it dissapeared from eurosport around the same time that there were copa mundials and then german copa mundials started coming
Footfield119
Yes, I think I like the gold/white more.

Just went to my gear bag on soccer.com (yes, I have multiple gear bags with different things on them because 1. I have nothing else to do
2. It makes me feel special
3. All I gotta do is click the checkout button biggrin.gif)
and it says that the white/black upper is now on BACKORDER until early march. I wouldnt expect people that ordered them to come usual time, but super if they do!

Y3 ADIDAS F50 TUNIT TIGER VER. spotting on uk ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/YOHJI-YAMAMOTO-Y-3-Y...1QQcmdZViewItem
Typo
What do I do if I bought Absolutes that are 1 size too big:
- Can't return or sell
- Don't want to wait to grow into them

Any instant fixes?

j/w
smithxi
when did the boot room turn into a g** fashion show?

and typo, what size are they? you can try selling them on ebay, or you could try the market place forum on this board. I was only able to trade something there once. so chances are probably against you with that method. try ebay.
lbj23
im looking at ordering those white/gold adidas profi's, just wondering if they are true to size n if they are a wide fit or regular? also ive tried on the 7406 and just wondering if it would be a safe option to order the same size in which i wear in them, any info would be great... cheers
ryano88
where did u get those black profis and can they be bought online? anybody?
