    I haven't tried the Legend 7, or the Neos, but I like the thickness of the Nike Premier. However, I'm really looking forward to the new Copa from Adidas, they seem to have an even thicker and padded upper.

    Good to know I'm not the only one with crazy ideas. I was planning on putting a thin plastic bag inside it and filling it with plaster to make a last. What did you glue the new outsole with? I'm guessing they use some special glue for this - gotta be flexible but very strong. Did you keep the rivet at the front or drill it out? Probably not possible to replace it but perhaps glue around it may help.

    I took them to a shoemaker to glue them together and I guess he used leather glue, from my research on the web this was the better option.
    I took the rivet off, it wasn't needed for my TF sole cause I sewed it on the front.

    The first one(Gmarket) is the old Astro Turf Morelia model and the 2nd one(Rakuten) is the new model.
    Except from the sole that is completely different I don't know if there are any other major differences on fit...

    Fernando Torres is now officially a Mizuno athlete and also Iniesta seems to be playing in Asics. I don't care much about which pro wears what brand, but one day it would be cool to see some world class player at the peak of his career just abandoning Nike's money and play with Mizuno.

    For those of you who are young and impressionable, this man is called Rivaldo and he won the World Cup, the Champions League, and the Ballon d'Or while playing for Brazil in the Joga Bonito Nike advertisement era.

    Anyone know if these Wave Cups are all leather or like the Wave Cup SS have a leather toe box and synthetic rear? Any other info about boot is also appreciated like price or if the sole is the VS1 tan insole or like the SS version of the Wave Cup.

    thanks

    I'm guessing all leather but I doubt the insole will be the same as the originals. I've heard the price is around or slightly higher than the Rebula MiJs

    Is this going to be a limited run or do they plan on selling these for a while?

    take my money, I'm pretty much price agnostic when it comes to Wave Cups
