    Those look pretty chewed up. Are they replicas?

    100% real. Purchased them from Sports Direct back in August. Their condition is pretty abysmal to be honest. You think I could get them exchanged? Not like I've even been hard on them, just worn them normally.

    I'll also post pictures of my AdiZeros now.

    Honestly I don't know what you did to those boots but it looks like a dog's chew toy. If sports direct won't take them back just go directly to Nike.

    Just posted the cracks on the soleplate. Lots of tears in the leather (from bad tackles) and the big crack opened from a very heavy tackle from a 6ft+ centre back. But they lasted me a year with pretty much no problems so can't complain.

    By the way, apologies about my nails. Can do I've been doing a bit of work in the garden and outside and not bothered sorting them out yet.

    Had the same issues with my Cherry Superflys (material in the inside of the heel peeling off). Luckily I decided I hated the boots and managed to return them after 4 wears :)

    The same happened with all my superflys. Didn't really think anything of it though as its just general wear and tear i suppose.

    JJB. With a receipt. But doubt they'll exchange that to be honest. It's nothing..

    With the wet weather all it would do is let water into the boot though. Plus I've had them under 2 weeks. I'll probably try it anyway.

    My AdiPowers ripped like that along the outside of the foot. Sports Direct only accepted mine because of that. Not sure.

    I'd give them a try. Eurosport has the best customer service ever. If they say no then you can always go directly thru Adidas. 6 month warranty.

    My lace hole on my Maestri IIs are ripping completely. Ill post pics in a bit. Although they arent game boots I still practice in them. Any suggestions how to reduce the chance of the lace hole ripping on my other leather boots?

    Managed to get a exchange on my F50 micoachs. The manager actually said it wasn't a manufacture fault so he couldn't refund but because they were so expensive he gave me an exchange. Good enough as I did like the boots.

    is that really what everyone was complaining about and calling ripped? mine were pretty separated from the heel of the sprint frame and the lip had started separating twice. on the blue toe cap nd the black one below it( if that makes sense). and at the sides

    Going to send in these Superfly IIs, my buddy only had them for literally 2 months, and they gradually ripped.


    He's a size US 12, maybe thats why lol

    And he also tore these in about 4-5 months, the back heel stud broke off.
