    Aite i know there has been a thread about the sizing of this boot.

    but anyway, i just bought a pair, and im fairly impressed. it feels like my zheros more than my vapors. the toes box area is wide, so its umbros solution for wide and light feet. the microfibre is reallly really soft, much softer than the KNG100 from nike's AZT range. blade placement is good, i played on failry dry and hard ground, but felt minimal pressure. I wanted to get the blue ones, but they only had oddly large sizes left at my local store, so i ended up with these. oh and another thing is the back of the shoe, where the X is on the heel, the fabric is white and not covered with any protective finish, so i suggest not playing them in muddy pitches. though i played on a dry picth, the stains were quite diff to remove, coz the heel fabric is sort of diff to scrub off. I'd suggest getting the blue ones, they look wicked in person. nicer than the white IMO.

    As some of u guys would know, i dun have a digicam, but i have previously fulfilled my promise of posting pics, but rather late lol. gota wait for my friend to have the time to come over and take some pics. boots count:18, 4 more since my last posting of my boot pics. cant wait to show them off as well. PICS COMING SOON!


    oh and i bought them elite x lite for?????? 97singdollars (58 USD) :)

    Yeah these are classy boots, got a pair for 40 quid on ebay, brand new but no box. I got the blue ones in SG and they are really nice, like u said quite soft for a synthetic boot and nice and light. They feel very stable and i like the look of the overall boot. Haven't played in them yet cos i is on hols and they are at home. The ground isn't soft enough neway!

    hey zhiyi, whwn i was in Kuala Lumpur, I saw these boots at many shops at BB Plaza/Sungei Wan for no more than RM200 or 50 us dollars. U should pick up a pair if u're down there.

    I tried on these boots and they felt quite down on my toes, unlike my vapours. :eek: Nevertheless these boots are great, but instead i got copas for the same price.

    Damn i miss asia, particularly Kuala Lumpur, it feels like home! :(

    Weston quoted 111. u know the gimmick right? boss of weston owns a couple of shops at queensway, they quote high price at weston itself, so the moment u see a lower price at another shop they own, u will buy str8 away.
