    I thought we could save alot of time and searching around if we just reviewed boots in the same way. (i've seen like 12 threads asking how pulses are?!) so if anybody is down... maybe we could do it like this:
    1. name of boot
    2. fit (true to size, not true to size)
    3. how long u had it, how long they lasted
    4. confort (1-10, 10 being the most confortable)
    5.looks (1-10, 10 being the best)
    6. grip (how the studs grip the field)
    7. problems with the boot?
    8. overall rating of the boot

    feel free to review a boot even if it's already posted, i'd be cool to have more than 1 opinion...

    1. name of boot
    2. fit (true to size, not true to size)
    3. how long u had it, how long they lasted
    4. confort (1-10, 10 being the most confortable)
    5.looks (1-10, 10 being the best)
    6. grip (how the studs grip the field)
    7. problems with the boot?
    8. overall rating of the boot

    I'll do a couple!

    1. Adidas Predator Mania (SG & FG)
    2. Good, true to size, size 10
    3. Had them since September, SG blades wear down very quickly, FG v.good lasting.
    4. 8 - Very comfortable, snug fitting boot. FG better again, less pressure on the sole of the foot.
    5. 7.5 - Look good, but not spectacular.
    6. 8 - Adidas are the best for grip, the TraXion system is the best one. FG boots better all round, can wear them on all surfaces, don't really wear the SG's that much due to FG's better traxion.
    7. The soleplate tends to seperate from the toe of the boot, quite heavy compared to vapor.
    8. 8 - Really nice boot, great for midfielders due to it's sturdiness and the K-Leather.
    Next...
    1. Valsport Era FG
    2. Bit big, maybe half a size too big.
    3. 6 months - very VERY scuffed up, maybe the way i play did that though!
    4. 7.5 - A comfortable boot, but too much space between your foot and the top of the boot.
    5. 8.5 - Very nice looking boot, very flash, the old-fashioned defenders dont like them!!
    6. 6 - Slip a bit, blades too small, very little stud pressure though.
    7. - Rip easily, poor strikezone due to the space between foot and boot, too heavy for the material used
    8. 6.5 - Not really a boot i am mad on, much prefer others!

    Next...

    1. Nike Vapor S.G
    2. I bought mine half size smaller, but think that was a mistake, think they are true to size.
    3. Had them since XMAS, still in a pretty good condition, had no problems!
    4. 6 - Weakness of the boot, get a lot of blisters!
    5. 9 - I have the chrome ones, really nice looking boot! My favourite looking one!
    6. 8 - Good grip, but really only good for v.soft ground, as blades are really long.
    7. Hurts if you get trodden on in them, get a lot of blisters, difficult to cross in... anyone else found that?
    8. 8 - you get a lot of power behind a shot and the lightweight boot is really enjoyable to play on, I really can notice the difference in weight, especially in boggy conditions! Hard to cross with though, whereas Pred's are very good for this!

    That'll do for now, I will do some of my others soon! :D

    Sorry people, I just wanted to ask nemesisj, what colour are your f50's? If they are the white ones, is it easy to clean them? Thanks! I'll review my boots soon.

    Lol someone gave the vapors 9 despite saying you get a lot of blisters and they offered no support. Lol if a boot ever did this to me I would bin them and yet you still love them? Nikes brainwashing works wonders, people happy with ********e boots because they look cool. Hilarious.

    5. black= 9.2 champgne=8.5 lunar=9.8 gunmetal=9
    6. 9.2 blades are abit too long when playing on really hard ground

    8. overall= 9.5

    1. Preadator Pulse (Black, Silver, & Navy)
    2. i have mine true to size, but i'm starting to think 1/2 size smaller,, they r also a bit wider than manias
    3. March 04
    4. 8.3 the plastic on the sides hurt my foot sometimes
    5. black= 9.2 silver= 8.5 blue= 8.2 **black ones look better because i put an old mania toungue from my champagne ones and i painted the top 3 vamps black** i don't like the pulse toungue too much
    6. 9.3
    7. outside of shoes raises up, but doesn't cause a real problem
    8. 9... good boot, but i still like the manias better

    I dont find them hard to clean, you should definetely get them.
    Yes they are the white ones w/ blue. I just use a toothbrush and water no soap or anything like that, just brush off the sides and it all comes out. All the "mesh" stuff while your playing gets grass stains but they come out when u brush em.

    I live in New Zealand, and tried on the black F50's on the weekend, along with just about every boot there is and i found the F50's to be the most comfortable as i have narrow feet. I was going to buy the black F50's but i do prefer the white ones. They are coming out in NZ this week but im not sure about cleaning them. Are you sure all the stains come out perfectly well and do you think they will last for a year. No stains... I am taking ur word on this. Please giv ur honest opinion.

    In my review i said i dont know how long they'll last because ive worn them a short time, as of now (bout couple weeks) they are fine. Yes the stains come out, like ive said before toothbrush and water gets it all out, after one of my games it had green stains all over the "mesh" then i just washed them away and they were gone.
