    Previous Shenanigans

    To get started, FYI here's what a PROPER pair of worn-in Vapors should look like:

    TBH I think those Vapors still look great, apart from the obvious stud damage.

    I suppose lots of the professionals are wearing the Lasers now, but Frings is also wearing the white/black colourway. I think the Lasers are already much better looking then the Supremacy...Much.

    I think it has to do with the upper color and design but the boot looks way better finally Nike might have given the T90 Range a big boost.

    dunno, still see the vapor jet td dealy whenever look at em.....but yea I never liked any of the others so guess the lasers dopest by default!
    Are they officially AZT90? what the full nomenclature?

    bigg, thats some good wear. U play on a giant belt sander? Im guessing that from astro... A mate of mine wanted to sand down a pair of cellerators and wear them as going out shoes, guess u ain't far off being able to do that!!!

    The Talarias have a plastic heel counter instead of the Vapors having the internal one. Honestly if you don't want to spend the money just the the Talarias same boot just a minor cosmetic change.

    Last weekend I saw a player, in a black unifrom, wearing the black/gold Talaria III's and they looked brilliant - REALLY good.

    Yeah they are nice boots I think if $200 is not in your budget the Talaria's will be fine same boot just cosmetic differences.

    The thing is with the talerias. Unless you get really close to them and see the heel counter. It's pretty had to see the difference.

    But sports soccer sell the vapors pretty cheap here. So its worth paying the extra £20 to have the real deal. But if vapors are out of your price range. Then go for the next best thing which would be the talerias

    I wore a pair a few seasons ago and to be honest they felt just as light as the vapors. But the cushion in them wasnt as good.

    Are the legends narrow or wide? Anyone?

    I can barely fit vapors, but I can fit total90's.

    They are between the 2. The only thing with the legends is that the leather will stretch.

    He made two different references to two things people said. I really don't see what the problem is. And as I said earlier moaning about post counts is now BANNED from this forum and if I see anyone doing it I will bloody neg rep them myself!!

    Anyway, back on topic. What does everyone know of Nike's First Touch 2 range? I think they fall under part of the Nike Fives range, but I was in NikeTown yesterday and they had these AWESOME, Vapor-like FG boots that I believe were intended for use on astro. They appear a little bit flimsier than the normal Vapors - if I likened them to anything they would be like Vapor 2's as they had the same lines on them and the same stud config. I wish I had taken pics, they were awesome!

    Anyway, if I got a pair, do you think they would hold up in a match situation? They were £90 so I think they must have some decent construction!
