A buddy emailed me this article. Any guesses who the company is? Nomis is my guess... http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=387695&cc=5901
since nomis has a huge pic of kewell on their website and a "special edition" kewell boot. im going to go out on a limb and say it is Nomis.
not everyone lives on the Nomis site, but I must be dumb because I don't see the special edition boot on there?
The Special Ed boots are on shopnomis.com, Australian version. The Nomis rep on SP posted that piece of news a few days ago.
Yeah. It's believed Kewell tried on a pair of Spark (or the Glove) at the end of last season and he was so impressed with them, that he wore them at the FA cup final. He had to remove the Nomis logo on the Spark he was wearing so he wouldn't breach his contract with Adidas at the time. Nomis claims they are not paying Kewell a cent to wear their boots.
Exactly! Who cares about Kewell anyways??? (Unless you are aussie or a liverpool fan) But I suppose he is the biggest name Nomis has on its books. So they have to make a big deal out of it!
it's a great coup for nomis who will do well out of this. damn shame kewell won't actually pull them on for australia until mid next year or liverpool until the last few games of the season (if at all - i reckon he'll be sold to another premier league side in the january window...)
hope he recovers soon. pity cos i think he's a good player. i think he was almost back to form when he was hit by the injury again...
im deffenitly thinkin those white/red kewell boots will be mine next season. plus i'll pretty much be the only one around here with them so the thing about nomis boots right now is that they are unique and thats what i like the most about boots.
