My pair is a HG Absolute Gold/White. I know there are different versions for this (obviously material-wise).

Let's talk about it.

Post pics if possible. I'll post picture/s of my shoe once I get it snapped by tomorrow.

Believe all versions are K-leather except the Beckham's which are synthetic. I got the white/gold abs fg then a pair of Beckham's more recent, only worn for one game but seem quite nice and soft material, didnt really notice too much of a difference between the two.

i never knew there were hg absolutes, pics?

Yeah, like XuON said, I never knew that Adidas actually made HG Absolutes, at least not at this time. blink.gif

You may have been mistaken with the FG Absolutes, since I have only ever seen FG and SG Absolutes online, in stores, or in magazines. But if you really do have HG Absolutes, I'm sure that everyone else would like to see what they look like.

Or do you mean the Adidas a3 Absolutes when you say HG Absolutes, because the A3's are meant for turf and training and can also be played on hard ground? Please post pictures.

what's the difference between absolutes, absolados and absolions?

As far as I can tell, the Absolutes are Kangaroo Leather, while the Absolions are Calf leather, and the Absolados are synthetic. Other major differences include: The Absolutes have power pulse, and the vamps are 'functional' rather than decorative, (although that's debatable).
Xu0N
supossedly the absolions have real vamps too, but no heel counter and powerpulse.

btw, is it me or they look kinda p-shoped?
hobanger
Absolutes - K-leather , powerpulse, external heal counter, split sole, predator vamps

Absolion - Calf leather, predator vamps(less effective i believe), split sole

Absolado - synthetic

those are the main differences i see after selling them each day every day for the last 2 months LOL. And thats the main reasons why i explain the price differences. Its up to you whether its worth it.

Oh and beckhams absolutes are made of a higher quality microfibre - the same material to be used on the topline Tunits. They dont however feature the same tacky coating as the Tunits

So what is the market price for the three different types.

I saw an absolado with white studs for HG, mine's an absolado with gold/yellow studs for HG.

What's the difference?
