I have a pair of nomis boots and they are really nice. They are comfy. You get 2 insoles with them one thin and one thick with extra cushion. So you can pick which one suits your food the best. Personally i wear the thicker insoles.
The leather is REALLY soft with a nice grip and they are pretty durable and easy to clean. Mine are FG studs and they have a really good grip on hard surfaces. They are the dry fit so the leather gives you extra grip in dry conditions but i've heard good reviews about the nomis wet grip too.
The Nomis website is really good so check that out for reviews and stuff because i dont think may people have nomis boots on the board.

Yep. I am on my 2nd pair of Nomis boots. I have the Glove FG in all black colorway.
I have tried other Nomis boots. I had the Spark but that was rubbish because the dry grip coating wore off as soon as u start playing in them. On the other hand, the Glove, which features wet grip, isn't a superficial layer of coating but rather a mosaic of 'fibres' etched onto the leather.
I tried on their latest wet drip boot, the Flare, but didn't like it. Not the whole boot is made of that wet grip leather, whereas the whole of the Glove is.
If I were you, look out for the Glove to go on sale (probably within the next few months as it sounds like Nomis may release newer colorways for 2007). Alternatively I recommend ProSportUK, where you can custom order Nomis boots and they can get you a 10-20% discount.
Hope that was useful! =D

They are very comfortable. The leather is very soft. Nomis says no leather food should be used on the boots, because they have been pre-treated. I suppose this in itself is another advantage as you don't have to condition the leather regularly.
You also get a choice of insoles, as Apple had pointed out. They can modify the fit slightly. One set has a thicker heel cushioning and also makes the fit more suitable for narrow feet. I am using that at the moment too.
The shape of the boot is similar to the Predator Absolute but the toebox is narrower. Their sizes run quite big and I have them in one whole size smaller than my Predators. My pair of Glove was very snug at first but now it's stretched just right comfort-wise.

You can get them from Rebel Sport or Athlete's foot. Harry Kewell models are exclusive to Rebel. Also, the 07 line of boots are coming out soon (spark 07 already out in kewell colours), keep your eyes out. Dual control is also out, i suppose it's a combination of wet and dry.

No. Dual Control is a modification of Dry control. It's called dual control because Nomis claim that grip is enhanced slightly compared with the old dry control.
Nomis boots are generally 1-1.5 sizes smaller than Nike and Adidas boots. I have gotten it wrong when I tried to guess sizes before so I strongly recommend a fitting.

they have a big range of nomis boots at Mike Pawley's (if you happen to visit the manly area) they've got lots of different styles, sizes and colourways there and they don't cost too much either.

got my nomis sg flares yesterday i usually were a 10 so i got a 9and they fit great the only thing i have found is that my heal is slipping very slightly but there is no way i wud b able to get my feet in an 8.5 i think this is to do with the raised heal system that they are using i am training in them tonite so i will let you know what i think tomoro hope this helps

The white on my Nomis looks kind of yellowish after I used them today. Do any of you guys have this problem.

I noticed in my Arsenal magazine that many of the players in the Arsenal Ladies side wear Nomis boots - 5 at least.

I thought I saw somewhere that they are releasing another women's model for 2007 but I cant seem to find the info again.

They sent me a pair. I think they want to be the leading brand in womens boots. So they really are trying to push their womens model.
