Im first to admit I know nout about puma's since I traded my King's in for the original preds back in the early 90's, so was wondering how long the Shudoh's have been around for, how many versions etc, who wears them etc.
Also, my mate wants a pair, but doesn't wanna pay the £100 in allsports as he only plays recreationally. NE1 know newhere else that carries these, or a website that could ship them in2 the uk for under £100?
Cheers

You can try and get some from Sports Soccer if you have one. They tend to stock them. Think they are about £70. They just have limited sizes!

Shudoh's itself have had a run out of about 2.5 generations i'd say
-original with a rubbery grey texture (1st gen)
-Shudoh II's in black (2nd gen)
-other colors of Shudoh (i.e. white/orange) (2.5 gen)

My Sports Soccer doesn't seem to have them, they recently upped their game and now got a real sweet layout, with all the adidas boots in one section, Nike next, umbro etc, with boots kinda displayed next to the competing boot from anothe company (Vapors next to f-50's, Preds by AZT'3s etc), they got most of the colorways of most boots (got gold vapors in the 1st week they had uk release) but don't seem to have any Shudoh's. Mebe get them to call another store and get them accross.
So what are they? Am I being dumbv and Shudoh is a player I never heard of? Did Puma sell Cellerators that weren't Shudoh? If the metallic greyish ones are 1st gen, then when were they 1st released? As they the ones that £100 in allsports now.
Thanks again guys

Shudoh is just the model name, it's background is with something Japanese.
Puma sold Cellerators prior to the release of the Shudoh, in fact Cellerators have usually been Puma's top of the line boot. Cellerator = the hexagonal cushioning in the heel.
The 1st gen, rubber upper Shudoh's were probably released around 4 years ago maybe? They didn't do too well because the upper became discolored and pretty much had a recall. I doubt they are readily available these days. The only ones you see floating around are the ones with the upper similar to the F50's.
