    I know! I was thinking the exact same thing when I was watching the Morelia Neo videos. Wow, you can dribble a ball through some cones and shoot the ball into the net from 3 meters! You must be either every child who has ever played the game football or a "talented" boot tester for one of the biggest online boot sites in the world! With those skills it's hard to tell.

    Seeing that soccerbible is directly affiliated with prodirectsoccer, I take their reviews with a grain of salt. I never really read their reviews and only go to the site for the latest news.

    I never go on SoccerBible anymore. You can read better articles and genuine reviews at decent sites like Soccercleats101 and SoccerReviews. The major problem with SoccerBible is that as you say, its affiliated with Nike and PDS, so of course there is going to be some bias.

    Being sent over some PAN boots this week. They are a Thai company so will be interesting to see how they test. Will put pictures up when I receive them!

    I use Soccercleats101 also. Another great review site is soccerreviewsforyou.com. His reviews are well written and pretty detailed. Both sites are the great for finding good deals on boots.

    The only think I use soccerbible for is boot spotting and leaked boot testing photos.

    Has anyone tried the Diadora Evoluzione K Pro GX14?
    I am interested to hear how those feel and perform? From what I have heard they have like a K-leather/synthetic feeling.

    Well the Umbro Speciali 3's are no more. This weekend a guy broke his metatarsal after he kicked the sole of my boot going for the ball. It kinda hurt but the sole plate took the most of the impact and ended up breaking in half. It's a shame too. I really liked those boots. The leather on them was really soft and had just the right amount of cushion. Anyway, I am sending them back for a voucher.

    But since I was down a pair of boots I decided I bite the bullet and ordered a pair of Diadora Evoluzione K Pro's. They should get in some time next week! I am excited.

    Just ordered a pair of Puma King Finales. Would love to hear from others who have these. How do you like them? Any issues?

    My favorite boot ever was the Ronaldinho Dois. I've been wearing legend 3's since my last pair of Dinho's wore out but they aren't nearly as good. Anyone have a recommendation for a boot similar in feel to the Dois?

    What exactly was it that made you like the Dois? If you tell me what you liked I could recommend some boots, never really had the Dois so if you could describe them I could help you out. ;)

    The soft kangaroo leather combined with the heel counter and relatively lightweight. I played in Puma King Classics in youth soccer before switching to Predators and Legends for a few years. The leather on the Dois and Classics was much softer than the leather on the other boots and I had better touch and feel for the ball because of it. What the Dois offered over the Classics for me was a much improved outsole. Better grip and with the heel counter the boot fit more snugly. Lighter weight and asymmetrical lacing are nice too!

    You tried the tiempo legend iv? Or would you consider looking at the mizuno morelia?

    Could anyone provide me with some reviews on the Umbro GT Pro 1's. Or give me a comparison of Nike Vapor 5/6 vs. Umbro GT Pro?
    [IMG] these are the ones im thinking about

    Try legend elite IV, the leather on them is soft. Look very very similar to dios.

    If only I could justify spending that much on one pair of boots :eek:. I haven't tried out Legend IVs, just the IIIs. I'll look into them.

    The Morelia Neo looks sick, I have no idea where I could get them though as I don't want to pay to ship overseas...

    I need a replacement for my V1.06, I had the V1.08 (hated them). Looking at the V1.11 SL, how do they compare?
