Beckham style tongue on COPAS

[LaLiga1989]

Throughout dozens of games, leagues, and tournaments, I've seen many people wear their tongues on their COPAS low, down, and covering the laces (Beckham style tongue). Which is the best way to keep your COPA's tongue down like that? I've tried but they keep flipping up. By the way, one of my summer training coaches comes from the UK and he had his Copa Mundials tongue like that as well.:confused:

find the thread entitled "how do you wear your copas" . lol just kidding but just look through and it'll explain everything.

you have to do it as soon as you buy a fresh pair, because the tongue is stiff and u can mold it into the shape you want it to stay at.

Well, with my Asics testimonials, i sewed a piece of elastic on like you'll find on the Absolutes, because i love to wear my tongues down low.

Basically, on the copa's tongue, there should be the white fabriv on top, with the black leather on the underside, try to make two small seperations, about a cm wide, on either side of the tongue and simple sew some elastic in. Just take a peek at the tongue of a predator and try to emulate that.

It worked really well on my Asics

if they arent new it could be hard but you could also try soaking the tongue and then folding them over how you want it and hope that it drys that way. The other way ive seen people doing it tying laces over the top of the tongue until they stay down.

You probably cant have your boots laced all the way up either if you want the tongue low you might have to ave the first hole out or something.

It gives you a better kicking surface, or so my brother says

Maybe, but I don't believe that little change can make you kick better:o

All I did on mine was use rubber bands on them when i am not using them and then tie the laces overtop the tounge when i was wearing them like applecorr suggested
it took about 2 weeks of having the rubber band on them, and now the tounge stays down without anything
