For those of you that play football.
Think it's about time to get a new pair of footy boots. Have been looking around and have my eye on a few different pairs.
Wanted to know what those of you who play are wearing at the moment and why. How comfy they are, what they cost etc
Thank ye

They're very nice.
Got them a year or so ago, don't know how much they cost.
They're extremely comfortable, though it depends on your type of foot, apparently if you have narrow feet than Nike's better, though that might just be for trainers.
Pros
- Made of plastic/leather (no cloth material), so very waterproof and no smell - also, they make a satistying noise because of this.
- Studs are definitely easier to use than those adidas ones - they screw in and screw out as opposed to needing some special key, and still managing to fall out mid match.
- fairly cheap - don't remember the exact price and it was in the January sales, but they were certainly less than £40
Cons
- the insole bit - mine's folded over mid game and because I kept on playing, with the sweat and the heat it's kind of ironed down, and gets fairly itchy. Probably a fairly rare occurence, but y'know
- because they look fairly flash, if you mess up you look like a tool. Kanchelskis tricks tend to make that a fairly regular thing for me, I once stood on the ball just outside our box, the ball was slicker than I expected and I hit the deck. The nearest striker hit it first time into the bottom corner. :(
- not much ankle support, but I doubt many have any at all.
If I can think of any more to add, I'll add it

I've got those white Reebok boots that Etherington wears.
He's good, so they must be.

Ah, thanks for the replies and also the site down. Much appreciated.
My first pair of football boots in three years were/are a pair of Nike Torrolismo's (or something). I would go an check but they're downstairs. Pros: very comfy, nice material, nice colours, fairly cheap (£35). Cons: The laces tie off centre which annoys me and looks a bit gay. But I'll get over it. Nice pair of boots.
Mine tie off centre as well, but I don't find them annoying at all, really

Meh. Makes them look Italian. And therefore poncey/poncy(sp?).

Poncy.
Meh. I say go Adidas Preditors, I've used different models for five years. Better control than Nikes, look nice too. Comfortable aswell.
I've had Nikes before, and they're all right, but Preds tend to give you a tiny bit more control of the ball. Also, you can get the blades, which don't fall out. And can be used on astro. So go Pred Blades, I tell thee.
