Kevan Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 (edited) Over the years I had Adidas, the George Best Stylo Matchmakers and Puma, along with a few that were, shall we say "Steptoe" boots. My favourites and by far the most comfortable were a pair of Puma Pele Rio. The Puma stripe was in yellow, so they looked different from previous Puma boots. What I can't understand these days is why any player wears boot with "blades" instead of studs. It always seems to me the reason why so many players slip and fall. ( e.g. the famous Gerrard incident)! Edited March 24, 2020 by Kevan Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McRightSide Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 All time favourites were my adipower Predators Also was quite loyal to a specific Diadora franchise in my late teens, but I can’t remember the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always wanted a pair when I was younger but couldn't afford them. Mrs bought me some last year for my 54th birthday. They're still in the box. Loved Puma Spa King as well and the Patrick Kevin Keegans were nice as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodger Wylde Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Loved Adidas World Cup. Liked Puma King but they were too narrow a fit for me. All time favourites were Patrick Cordoba. First pair of boots I had made from kangaroo skin. They were like slippers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobness Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 My lad was mascot this season. After the match, one of the players handed him his boots, and even signed the soles. My lad was well chuffed, so this has to be my favourite pair, on sentiment alone. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
