The normal insole is like the vapor 3's it is a faux leather that nike now puts in their top tier shoes and it does not breathe or interact with the fabric of socks causing a hardcore blistering issue and they never wear in. It also makes it harder to ball your foot up to strike the ball because of the insole being so tacky and the sock sticking on it.

They flat out suck and nike is now finally making vapors that fit well but still blister people because of this that is an easy fix.

That sucks sls isn't bad I've worn them for about 2 weeks almost every day and I haven't gotten a blister yet, but my friend told me that the vapors are better than the sls...is that true

Ahh welcome to the King Exec club brabbit429. King Execs are great boots, very comfortable, super light and well priced especially being made of all K-Leather. Not unlike some boots that will go unamed (ahh screw it... PowerSwerves!) that cost a fortune and are half plastic!

The King Execs will only get cheaper too once the new ones (dubbed "King XL's") come into the market.

Hope the boots treat you well!

They aren't worth the extra $100... Plus a guy at Soccer Pulse said that his SL's Carbon Sole-Plate is starting to peel off from the upper....So much for the indestructible sole-plate eh?
Also, those SL's are just to show off who's rich and if mommy and daddy really buy them new boots.

I've heard that they have some serious durability problems though, is this fixed in this new colorway?

No tongues on Predators :eek:?!

Blasphemy I tell you, blasphemyyyy :eek:!

And as for the newest colourway of the King Exec's durability; I guess we'll have to wait for an update from brabbit once he's kicked around in them. I'm personally curious how well the silver colour stays on the leather after some use.

I've got the White/Blue/Red colourway and I've had no durability issues after a couple months of light to moderate use. That said though, I've only ever used them for Touch Rugby ;).

Aparently according to a puma salesman the new puma king XL's are unbelievable.. I know he is bound to say that but he said the leather quality was superior to the kings at the moment (I didn't think that was possible!!!) and that all durability problems puma boots have been solved and these boots are made to last, forever!

I know there nothing much but they work for me. Haven't played in years so I was looking for a good first time boot. The local sports store didn't have a huge selection (very minimal) and all the mens boots that I was interested in didn't come in a 6 so I went to the kids boots. I found a pair of pumas there the v6.08 R, never heard of them before but oh well.

They were a good price, fit well, very very comfortable and I like the style. Good all around, easy to break in. Put them on and went outside for a while and they work well.
