Honest_Man#1 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 The plate of my right boot cracked at the weekend so a new pair are required. Trying to decide on whether to risk buying a new pair online or finding somewhere with a good selection in Edinburgh. Always risky I think buying online though as a pair of boots need to feel good on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that’s the plan. There are just surprisingly few decent looking shops selling boots in the Edinburgh area it seems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingo ohne Flamingo Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 It's not a football boot if it can't be polished. Best fitbaw boots I've owned are these That was from my old 11s days, brilliant proper football boots! These days I'm cutting about with a pair of Kaisers, same as the copas but the leather isn't kangaroo, plus they were 40 quid cheaper so ideal for Monday 7s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Wore the Nikes for about 5 years but 1 of them ended up completely splitting at the front a week before a Scottish Cup game last month. Picked up the Adidas brand new with tags for £15 and even though they look a bit w**k they feel good on the foot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quickoverayard Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Last pair I bought for my last season about 3 years ago cost £230 but were perfect. First ever pair was the original predators that I remember getting. The laddie has some bright coloured pish ... he’s a centre half which makes it worse !!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ2 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Studs for a 7 a side bounce game, who'd have guessed?Moulded studs, assuming the game is being played on 4g, that’s absolutely the correct footwear. Yer old da’ cutting about in his burst samba’s is fine for him as he can’t move. Folk wearing blades are for the watching. Metal studs automatic life ban. I’ve got a pair of black & white Adidas gloro’s that I’ve had a few years. Had a pair before that as well that last a couple years, lasted and comfy so got another pair. Comfiest boots I’ve worn were Nike premier’s (thought they were tiempo’s until googling for a picture, live and learn) - pictured below - but fell apart after a season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzza81 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 The epitome of someone that wears trainers to a game of 5/7’s on a 3/4G is the nonce from your IT department who you’ve invited along to make up the numbers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Wilson Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) Proper astroturf trainers are adequate for casual bounce, small sided games. Moulded studs should only be worn for 11 a side amateur games and above. Turning up with studs is similar to having a full kit, with a name on the back of the shirt.

On a wet 4G pitch you often slide around on those Astro boots. They were ideal for the old sandpaper asfeo pitches back in the day or the old shitey "3G" pitches. Talking of sliding around, the worst boots I've ever owned were those stupid blades, didnt last long before they were binned and funnily enough I'm sure they were replaced with my first pair of Copas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
