I was thinking of buying shoes from eastbay (black/red pulse....100 bucks....good deal),

and my question was whether or not there's a major difference between FG and HG (because the shoes are HG, and i have always played with FG)

i have f50 hg...if your planning to use the hg on wet pitches like you can with fg..dont get them..theyre fine on turf/hg/fg..but not on wet pitches!..youll be sliding everywhere!

^^true

ya adidas did a good job of designing their HG traxion plate for..well..HARD GROUND! haha thats what they are made for. i wouldn't recommend getting them unless u know that the pitch u play on is like hard dirt all the time. THEN they are good...use the right tools for the right job mate! -B G

You should try the Abs in HG they have a split sole, adn they still look like they'll hold up.

^great.....(i live in sunny southern california)

With Pulses don't forget the HG boot doesn't have the split sole like the SG and FG boots do. I doubt it'll affect you much but you should be aware of it
