SOCCER/FUTBOL/FOOTBALL FOOTWEAR, KITS & GEAR - 2020/21

Something will pop up. I have a feeling Nike / Puma can create a soft synthetic. I think durability will be tough. But the Obra 2 and hypervenom 1 were (IMO) great uppers as far as being a synthetic that was soft. I know it wasn't quite there as far a legend-esque but it gives me some hope

To channel my inner fluid hips this is all about cost cutting. Those synthetics over the long run have to be significantly cheaper to make than leather

Yup. It's all about profits. kanga-lite was trash.

I don't understand the kangaroo ban.

Kangaroo meat is sold in Australia and globally. The leather not being used for boots would go to waste.

It is what it is. Hoping at the very least they continue to produce Premiers with at least cow leather. If not will just rock Mizuno from here on out as my main boot, along with the Premiers I'm gonna load up on. Also hoping Adidas and PUMA start making proper AG's and making them available in the USA.

The whole no kangaroo leather thing seems strange just since there really aren't that many shoes still made with it in general. Why not just keep making 1 or 2 shoes per brand with it or still have a "Craft" pack with leather. Unless it really is too expensive and cuts into profit margins. But if that is the case why not just raise the price on kangaroo boots...they don't seem to be having a problem raising the price every year on other silhouettes.

But also why not just use regular leather from a cow? It makes absolutely no sense. It's all about cost cutting cause their crap synthetic material is always going to cost less than the hide of an animal.

Sold my Puma Ultras, just never felt right even after breaking them in. Found these on eBay for $115 and am happy to be back on Team Merc



Edit: that mud is from me playing in them, they didn’t come that way

 

[romulus]

Agree/disagree?

 

[AZwildcats]

He’s a lot nicer with the ratings in comparison to previous years, nothing lower than a B.

 

[fluid hips]

Dope

 

[ronaldo nazario]

Dope

Been watching dudes videos for a while, he makes a lot of dope balls out of things like old boots, etc.

 

[AZwildcats]

General idea of what the next Tiempo will look like, this is the Pro TF model

 

[AZwildcats]

Wore these out in a pickup game, love everything about them. Will be rotating between these and the Mercs

Also like El Argentino said, the additional grip is negligible at best, I don’t even notice it. The comfort (especially in the heel) makes up for it though

The in hand pics of these i have seen look so much better then the stock pics. Love the small blue writing on the outer heal and instep. Great little detail

 

[ronaldo nazario]

Still wish the entire boot was multicolor, would have been so dope. Might ID a pair of these in the future.

I agree the heel is particularly comfortable; good call.
