Mizuno Thread [9] - info, pictures, questions here.

I've played for about an hour in my WI3's and I really like them. It's easy to get under the ball and the panels are grippy.

The only problem with them is that the touch is a bit different from the other cleats I have. It feels like I have to put more effort in the touches when sprinting with the ball (maybe the panels fault?).

 

soccerbible visit the home of Mizuno football and the factory where they hand produce each of their 'Made In Japan' football boots including Brazil striker Hulk's World Cup Mizuno Morelia Neo.

Feels good knowing that my boots get pretty much the same treatment as the pros. Besides the customization and special sizes like 26.3cm

 

Interesting experience with Pro Direct Soccer. They had the Indonesian Morelias on sale for about 124 dollars or so, whatever 80 pounds in dollars. I ordered the Morelia Neos, and paid with my credit card. To my utmost shock, I received an email from their customer service telling me because of fraud, I had to show them a screen shot of my credit card with my home address. Who in today's business world requires measures like this for cleats? I would understand if I am buying a house, but it was just soccer cleats Anyways, I have asked him for directions on paying with paypal.

 

asianboy,

good post > it's 1 of my wish/dream to visit the factory! LOL!

it's amazing!

the estrela neo looks pretty nice too!

hmmmmmm

 

The boots are the best, but who is the music by?

 

Bought some Pantos and paid with PayPal...

 

I got a pair of white and blue Morelia Neos while I was in Glasgow. Will upload pictures later.

 

I'd gladly pay if I can get bespoke lasting done with mizuno. I've yet to find any company that offers such a thing. That would be my ultimate grail.

 

If you are paying with a credit card, and shipping to an address that isnt your home address, it will get flagged. I requested that my cleats be shipped to my place of work, because I dont want the hassle of having to go to the post office. PDS will demand you send them bank statments showing your address on your credit card statement, because apparently they have had a lot of charge backs.

 

bespoke lasting?

 

That is what the form they use to stitch a boot is called. A last

Black/Volt Colourway Neos Made in Japan as well. Now comes with free shipping if anyone's interested! quite a good deal $200.

Also @Dr. Boots , this might interest you, 28.5 MiJ Morelia UL's. Everyone says go half a size down with the UL's so this might be your best chance?

when i was in japan i gutted i couldnt fit in the neos. i would love a service where the company takes a mould of your feet and makes a last. also things like adjusting placement of studs. i havent been able to play any football due to being on tour and toe injury..... the pain

 

Are rakuten's morelia neos always MiJ?
More specifically i was looking at these

Thanks

 

rakuten JP only sells MiJ neos and II!

 

http://www.sochuteiras.com/2014/05/mizuno-wave-ignitus-3-em-imagens-reais.html

Google translate is apparently suggesting these models of the wave ignitus 3 might have a kangaroo leather forefoot option, as well as the synthetic...? Any ideas @serginhobertholi/others?

 

Not this model.... First informations from Mizuno said that would have a K-Leather model.... but not released yet....
Both colorways are made in PrimeSkin...

 

Is there a view for a K-leather model on the horizon? :O

 

If they make the WI3 in k-leather will it be a whole lot of difference?Since it would only be on the outside of the foot

 

Can anybody guide me on purchasing a pair of these http://item.rakuten.co.jp/kemari87/12kp-30509/?
I'm planning to use tenso. How do I go about doing the payment?

 

There is a guide on the tenso website but the steps are pretty much like this:
- Sign up for tenso and get the japanese address.
- Go to rakuten and find the product you want
- Add to basket and checkout
- Input the japanese shipping address tenso gave you
- put your own billing info and address, etc
- Make sure you dont choose Cash on Demand (COD) as tenso will refuse the package
- Complete your order
