    Here's what you do.

    Go to a store and try on every shoe until you find one that fits and that you are happy with the softness of the leather. Look at the cleats and make sure they will work on the type of field you play on most of the time.

    Don't worry about brand, color, cost or image. Buy the shoe that fits your foot, and think about buying two pairs if your feet are done growing.

    Trust me, I bought the wrong shoes for over 20 years, until I took this simple advice last year. And don't be afraid to walk out of the store and buy the shoe online or from a catalog. But, if you bring in a catalog, most stores will match the price, or slightly above (remember you will save freight, wait and hassle buying from your local soccer dealer).

    Free advice, by the way, is usually worth what you pay for it.

    Also, don't buy into any of that atavistic British BS that you should buy shoes 2 sizes too small. That's from when kangaroo leather was badly tanned and stretched when you looked at it.

    I know you dont want to hear the "go try em' on at the store cuz everybody is different" stuff so i'm not gonna tell ya it.

    Because you play striker and maybe some midfield I would suggest you try the f-50.

    The f-50 looks to be a great shoe for an attacker.

    With the insoles you can customize your comfrot level.

    Position Designed+Lightness+Kangaroo+Style=Success
    (well maybe not)

    Plus the shoes look wicked sweet. :)

    just get some cheap crap at k-mart like me.. lol no just kidding just go to the store and buy the ones with the soffest, most durable leather, that fit you the best. You can't go wrong doing this.

    Does anyone have the f50's , im interested in getting a pair but i would like some feed back on them before i purchase them. i hear the vapors give you mad blisters and the thin nikskin or w/e its called give you poor control, but thats what i herd.
