Thats a nice design. But to be honest none of the V1.08 designs have made me jump up and think i have to have those. I really liked the x-ray ones. But when i saw them in the 'flesh' they didn't look as great. I'm just waiting to see what the leather ones bring!

I felt the same way about the tricks. It seemed as thought microfiber on the tricks was different than the original v1s. It seemed more plasticky

got them yesterday an hour before the game..wore for the game, and they felt pretty damn good right out the box.

Those are gorgeous! :eek:
PLEASE do a full review on them after a couple weeks. I've been eyeing those and the king xls.

Wow, I finally got my hands on a pair of v-konstrukt ii's. Got the white/navy colorway, I would have preferred a black shoe but my local store didn't have it in stock. Also a pretty good deal at 99 USD.
I have one question though. Does anybody know if they stretch or shrink a lot? They are a little too roomy, and I was hoping that there was a way to shrink them, or whether they would shrink naturally.
Thanks

and btw, the yellow tricks look sweeeet.

I'm not sure why, but those yellow trix look awesome - much much better then the blue version of them.

[appleCORR7]

I think its because the yellow makes the darker shades 'pop' more than the blue did, the blue kinda just merged in a bit.

you cant shrink boots, but they can stretch. the konstrukts dont stretch that much from my experience.

[Guest001]

Yea, I figured that but just wanted to make sure. Guess I'll have to go with double socks or something.

Like m4k said, they won't exactly "shrink", but they will mold to your foot, and that will make the extra room up front a little less noticeable.

12 is my normal size, 13 in some shoes.

I wore them in my game on Monday, and managed two goals... :) One with the right boot and one where the boots helped me jump and head one in... neither of them really attributable to the boots, but they were comfortable enough. I did have to wear two thin pairs of socks and did get a blister on my big toe but nothing to write home about. I am going to try out some insoles to make them a little more snug, I will try my old standby SuperFeet ones and see how it goes. I also had my feet get pretty tired about 75 min through the game, but otherwise I REALLY liked them.

And now as an update.. I took out the stock insoles of my .08s in the shiny blue and black colorway, and put my SuperFeet insoles in that I've been using in my original silver colorway Predator Manias... and it's GOLD baby! GOLD! They are no longer too big and I Don't need to use two pair of socks, they are as comfy as my preds ever were, and they have been performing admirably both comfort and performance-wise.

So far I am lovin' em. AND I don't have to take care of any leather! BONUS! :)

Puma v konstrukt III on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com.hk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120310980904&ih=002&category=109133&tc=photo

[Guest001]

ewwwwwww..... I don't really like them. Maybe in a different colorway, but probably not. The cushiony part looks disgusting, and it looks like it wouldn't give good touch. But it's only 139 USD?

[georgester1993]

heyy, they're in Hong Kong :)
but they're out of my price range :(
plus they're ever so slightly odd looking

looks like little TexasRedDevil got his hands on some of the new pumas colorways and models. that v1.08 is big sexy

[shrtysskat8]

After using my v1.08 for some games and kicking around, im in the opinion that they are a great boot. i like how thin they are, light, and comfortable, even though they aren't fully broken in yet, i still get a bit of pain in my arches after a long time of wear. Another thing I noticed recently is that most of the boot is stitched through, so hopefully no annoying durability issues. Great boot overall..just quick question though, i have the yellow tricks,and the yellow plastic in the front gets marks from turf all over, what would be the best way to get rid of that, something like goo off? and what about the scuffs on the shoe?

[Seven30witwork]

is there any difference between tricks and regular v1.08's?

[Skyhawk]

Nope

[noelbati]

today saw that the k leather v1.08s are coming out in white and in black, release date 1/3/09 and they are retail 200USD
