i am quite a stubborn player when it somes to buying gear, i like to go by one brand, as if i'm sponsered lol, i root for adidas. who do you guys like and why? is it puma for their donations, generosity and good will, adidas because of the classic preds, or nike because of their eye catching vapors? or do you guys buy whatever? whatever reason plz share and disscuss. Although most companies do it, i steer away from nike coz of thier immported labouring. something also makes them seem like the bad guys some how, lol. dont ask, i dont know.
i buy the best looking boots, cause i like to look good. I also buy boots that have a good comfort rating. dont really care about the brand really.
I usually just stick with either nike or adidas but i have tried diadora. Brand isn't a huge factor for me but i definitely lean towards those two.
I grew up wearing mostly adidas and some diadora boots, so that is mainly what i go with just out of familiarity. Tried a handful of pairs of Nike and while I liked the shoes, they all seemed to have one flaw(mainly blisters) that I never had with my copas/brasils/etc. As far as gear goes, I will buy whatever is reasonably priced and suits my needs regardless of brand.
Adidas Nike just don't fit me well... My pulse, powerswerve, and adipure all fit me perfectly. I also like Mizuno because they are also VERY VERY comfortable out of the box.
Began with adidas. I had to because our team was sponsored by adidas so onl that brand was allowed. the problem was( still is) i have a thin foot. so copa's were ok (even say great, I think everbody should have a pair) but once they stretched a little they were to wide. when the predators came same problem. When I left the team in 98 nike was bringing the mercurial. Like almost every boy at that time i was a R9-fan. actuall i still am. so i bought mercurials. and those were for me. thin and comfy. I've been wearing mercurials since. never really had a blister problem. only with MV III that i bought too small. so I would say nike.
ill wear anything as long as it looks good but i prefer Adidas to all other brands Nike is a close second but since my feet are wider Adidas just fits better
When I was a kid from age 3, I remember my parents would buy me cleats when I needed them, I truly had no preference or interest in the style/colour or brand. What they came home with I wore. This continued until like grade 10. It started with adidas cleats, copas and such. By highschool Puma began to enter my home. Since then I have just loved the fit of them, and I have put alot of faith into their products and I have not be dissapointed. Comfort is exceptional for me. Im 22 now and for the past 4 years I have taken more interest in what I put on my feet. So I have tried out some Nike's models (T90's), other Adidas' models (F50.8s, Predators) but I have always found my way back to Puma. Most important factor for me is comfort/fit: V-konstrukt IIs - comfy, protective, just a bit bulky and heavy V1.06s - would love to get a warehouse supply of them v1.08s - toe cap has led me to experiment with other boots, but super comfy, and durable So for now I would say I am a Puma guy, obviously I do not like everything they offer but when I try out pair I am interested in they do not disappoint. But the search continues...looking into trying out either the Puma PwrCat 1.10 (hoping itll be a more supportive and durable version of the v1.06), Nike Tiempo Classic Lite, or Nike 360CTR Maestri
Most of my life i had just stick to one brand and it was Nike. The shoe i have worn all my life are vapors because they were really lite but now that i have a pair of adizero that might change but i dnt knw cause im still going to buy the new SuperFlys II or i might aswell stick to both brands
