Question microfibre

Hey,
I recently ordered the Diadora Sensible Whites. The touch was brilliant (kangaroo) and the traxion was great. But I decided to return them because I was worried about them getting dirty. Also, I wasn't too sure about durability.
So I ordered the Reebok Baleni II. I've heard that anything above $80 should be quality, but does anybody have real feedback on the boots or microfibre in general? (I still haven't received the purchase)

u'll never get the same fit as k-leather because it has minimal stretching.

I have white CL Precisions and they don't get that dirty at all...just maintain them...but it's too late anyways.

Also I hear that the Majestad are pretty nice boots. They're a microfibre with kontrol touch from Kelme. Anybody know about these.
You guys are probably sick of my questions, but where I'm located, although they have good soccer teams, they don't have the stores where I can try out pro-level; boots. So I have to do as much research as possible before I order.

the only synthetic leather boots I care for are Nikes I just got the Vapors today and they fit better than Kangroo I think (i also have the total 90 2's), anyways i am not the biggest fan of Kelme so this might be a bit bias but I would shy way from that company just due to the funny fit of their boots the real leather boots they make are soft but just fit kinda weird but all the microfiber i have felt from them is kinda crappy

yea, I have a fairly wide foot, and I just got the Total 90 II's and they fit a heck of a lot better than any leather boot I have had. I also dont have to worry about them stretching to the point of creating holes like my Predators did(90's dont stretch as much, which is fine because they are like a sock right now).......

- what do you mean by crappy? Did you actually play in the boots? Are they crappy because of projected durability? Why is Kelme so bad?
