the banners are all over bigsoccer. does anyone else think they're completely hideous and the stupidest invention since ferbies?
it seems like the lovechild of an over exuberant marketing firm and to much start-up money floating around. we're in a recession! if you wear them you look like an idiot! cleatskins = bad for you, bad for america.

i dont think its that bad of an idea, especially if you have soft ground studs. say the locker room is a distance away from the and you got to cross a track or walk on a side walk just pop those bad boys on and use them your studs from getting scratched and worn down. i think they would be similar to what ice skaters use on their skates from when they go from the ice back to the changing room.

edit: i just found out they arent for with metal studs, maybe they aren't as practical as i thought.

I can see it being popular with the 10 year old tom boy girls at school.

i know football players tend to wear them they look preatty funny basically there are holes in the bottom so u can put your studs through. it is just like a sweet spot, a waste of money.

This is great for kids, who are getting in and out of their parents' cars and houses. I don't think adult footballers are the target audience here.
