im 16, and i live in canada. my season is just under-way and i need a new pair of shoes. does anyone want to help me out on which pair to look at?
Like said before - go to a store and try on as many boots as you can. Then you'll know which feel most comfortable. That's the most important thing - that they fit nicely.
GreenDay is right,, never ever, buy online, unless you have tried it on in a store before or you know about it, only when you go to a store you can find out what is right for you. i use the reebok pedinare.
Also, I would stay away from shoes with fancy bells and whistle. Get a simple, no-frill pair and it will serve you just fine. The only boots I wear are Diadora Brasil. They fit my feet like gloves.
I am a big fan of the Brasil as well as the Nike Total 90's and Tiempo Premier's those 3 shoes are just about the only ones I will wear when playing. I think the new black and orange Brasil's look tight as hell, I had a pair of the Brasils in black and orange back in like 1997 when they still had a fold over tounge like the Copa's. I am real gald they brought that color back I think that is going to be my next boot buy or the silver total 90's I can really make up my mind right now.
Dude if you are sixteen and still growing I would buy any boot for less than $40 from any reputable company. You will outgrow them before you wear them out. If you think your foot has reached it's maximum size I reccommend Adidas Copa Mundials. They are the most popular boot for good reason. Quality construction and no frills. Last forever if taken care of. Good on soft or hard pitches. For the player who lets his game do the talking. No flash, all class.
I love the Copa Mundials. I wish they would come out with it in different colors though, like they have done with the Samba. A pair of Copa's in white, blue, or red would be awesome.
Yes all of these shoes are good and i also agree that the new brazils are bad ass but the predator manias and the mizuno wave cups are also two very good shoes. I also cant wait until the new attiva is for sale and also the new white total 90 II is totally beast and even though i have never worn either of these shoes i think that the new Xai and the master white are tight also and even the new white vapors are hard.
Are you talking about the german copas or just the regular copa mundials because if you like the regulars you should try the germans and i highly recommend the copa indoors to any quality player.
