I have seen Anelka wearing the balck version of this boot as well, I think it may be a Valsport product since I think he is now under contract with them as his sponsor, He was wearing the new Valsport ERA in white and blue to start out the season, I am not too sure what he is wearing here but I am pretty sure it's not an adidas f-50.

I believe you are right. Nick Anelka is a Valsport athlete now so we are probably seeing the replacement for the Una or Era.

Which color combo did you get? I thnk the new white and blue ones are bad ass that they are selling in England.

Valsport is one of the few boots brands I have never bought, I am very intersested in them though for the upcoming season, could you tell me what the fit is like and the what the feel and quality of the synthetic upper is like?

i got them in white/silver color combo

the upper is durable and forms to your foot well... feels kinda like vapor upper only like 2-3 layers of vapor upper so its thick like reg boots.... if you're gonna order them they run 1/2 size big so if u wear 10 get a 9.5.... they have firm grounds in white/red, white/blue, white/silver in eurosport... they're pretty durable and when you wear them in rain or wet conditions your feet stay dry unless you step in a huge puddle and it goes through your socks or something... they also dont hold grass and stuff... after playing in wet conditions very few grass strands stick on them.. they require minimal attention just wipe it w/ a paper towel and they're brand new... i think i posted a picture of mine in the what boots are u currently wearing

sorry i meant top is silver and bottom is blue/red/gray... i'd reccommend them to anyone... i have a regular foot and my dad has a wider foot and it fits him also... they're pretty light.... i would've had the silver/red color combo but i saw the adidas accelerators on ebay and had to have them for 110... had to cancel the order @ eurosport.. its a great deal through eurosport save $110... yesterday they had 1 pair of 9.5's left and dont know how many 10's... hope that helped you Jc18star

Not too sure if Anelkas and Okochas boots are Valsports, cant find them anywhere. Thinkin they may be Reebok, cos Okocha has been wearing Reebok this season, and also there may be some connection in the fact that both teams kit manufacturers are Reebok

Anelka is a Puma athlete, and the boot he is wearing is the Shudoh..... I work in the soccer retail industry and I'd be happy to send you a promotional catalog.

He stopped wearing Puma this season, I know for fact that he was wearing the Valsport Era for the first few months of the season, whats on his feet now I am not too sure.

If you want to send me a catalog for Puma products though that would be awesome, I want to geta look at the Cellorator Zero in k-leather since i have only seen pics of the synthetic ones. PM me and I will give you my info.

You work in soccer retail son? I think maybe you need to concentrate more on your job and you'll know what's up! Don't make me put you on Triple T's Hit List!

Anelka used to be Puma, baby! Now he's with Reebok because he didn't want to be on the Pain Train. The shoe he's wearing is the new Reebok Baleni IV Pro which he will wear during Euro 2004, white/royal, suggested Retail is $99.99 baby! Coverd StrikeZone lacing system, with Slim V-notch lacing. Soft microfiber upper with a foldover tongue strap, bitch! Molded sockliner with Poron inserts, wooooo!! New Launch Control FG firm ground bladed outsole and heel wrap! Available to the general public starting in June!

Wooooooo!!!!

Well it sounds like you know what the shoe he is wearing is, but a bit of friendly advice so you dont get yourself carded and kicked out before you have even started to really post here don't start trolling or flame throwing on a non rivalries board.

BTW the chances of Anelka playing in Euro 04 are slim to none since he snubbed a France call up last season, so I guess they will have to market the boot around another player there, and since Giggs isn't playing they are again SOL, reebok needs to do a better job of picking their sponsored players.
