Favorite Cleats

My favorite boots are the Copa Mundial by ADIDAS.

I've been wearing Mercurials for a couple of years, and love them. I feel like I strike the ball better in those than anything else I've ever worn.

On BRSA's splotchy grass covered, pot-hole filled concrete "fields", they destroy my feet, so I'm looking for something else to wear when the fields are really dry.

I got a pair of these:



...at Dick's for 80% off of retail, so I figured I'd give them a shot. I went to break them in yesterday. They feel better, but I feel like I have to learn to strike the ball all over again.

Isn't saying boots just a way for an unathletic, spoiled white kid to try to sound more European?

Very good point hendi. I wear boots when I go hiking. I wear cleats to play soccer.

Predators have been a gimmick shoe since they changed the style in the late 90's. All the extra shite on the outside serves no purpose.

Think what you want, but when I played regularly, I could put the ball through a pin hole with them. Maybe if you're a defender, yes. But if you played a lot of long balls and took free kicks and corners like I did, they were pretty solid. Our HS season was in the winter and the field was always soaked, the inserts helped a lot with control, no question about it.

Nothing like making assumptions about someone you've never met. Not a good point Hendo.

I'm normally a fan of the copas, but I just picked up a pair of these. They are great shoes. In fact, they might be the most comfortable cleats I have ever worn.

CTR Maestri II for those who are wondering. Baby Bradley, Donovan, Gooch, and Lichaj have all worn them, just to name a few.

Cant post a pic because Im on a phone but it would definitely be the Addidas F50's the ones that Messi wears, I have a pair and it literally felt like I could run 100mph in them

Its quite easy to post pictures from a phone
