This is epic lmao

Omg😂😂😂

I used to wear them as a keeper they were quite practical, as the laces would NEVER get loose, and lacing your shoes mid match with gloves on is impossible

Guillermo Fernandez Same, they are pretty good from a goalkeeper’s perspective.

Gavin star shut up nigga

😂 every once in a while we will find one or two of the studs at our practice field

terrible designs? okay then

2018: good design and good tech I can't think of any really bad designs.

Nothing beats the old adidas designs. They’re sooo sexy idk why 😍😍😍

But Flyknit was 2014

example that supports OP's statement (in my opinion - of course, this is all opinion): the hypervenom 2 graphic design and colorways, both before and after they changed the upper. it was like the worst elements of the 80's done in a really shit way. one for adidas: the x 15 design never really won me over either, but i did like some of the colorways... i guess. the orange primeknit x 15+ was the best, in my opinion.

First 3 superflys, balenciaga boots and Gucci and YEEZY

pretty sure he wasn't very rich if he had to work in a football store back then

robert dean To be fair, I’m not being that serious. However people can be very rich and still work in football stores, personally I want to work with plumbers, electricians, etc, because I’ll like to know learn and have more understanding. Secondly, others work in places that strengthens their hobbies, for example, I love super cars, football etc, I would love to work at F1 races and champion league finals, that means I can see or if I’m lucky touch an F1 car and see Lewis Hamilton or shake hands with Ronaldinho, fat Ronald, Ronaldo, Messi, Jay Jay Okocha etc. Thirdly, did you hear how much he spent on boots?!😳! and what he wore as a young lad? Jesus, that’s rich to me. All in all, it’s because he have all these experiences that he can advice us today. So I wish I could, I would have been his friend to borrow some of his boot to play 😂🤣😂🤣 In fact, I don’t mind if he sends me a nice pair of boots now! Send me one please! I want to show boat when COVID-19 is over and we are back to playing footie. Great video by man. Keep it up. I watch your videos then go and talk to my mates about boots, like I’m an expert 🤣😂🤣😂 More videos please.

Same

I have boots and use em in matches but I like playing on my feat in unofficial matches

A kid wouldn't have as much money as an adult

Those powerswerves are the best boots I have ever owned. Absolutely sublime first touch on the ball and incredible control during passing and punts. The extra weight may not have helped most but for a goalkeeper like me it was very noticeable. I wish I could buy them again because I would still wear them. I have my AdiPure 11Pro's now which are awesome but they aren't my powerswerves :(

Personally as left foot forward player, I genuinely could put a great deal of swazz on the ball from a dead-ball kick. Only really got issues when not opening the face of the foot to the ball when hitting it up the line if I failed to check my run slightly. I enjoyed playing in them. That said, as we all know, they could be divers lead boots. It's what you feel comfortable in and how you feel wearing them.

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

BOOTBANTER I had a pair! Thought I was so cool 😎 I actually liked them so much that when the stud eventually broke off I bought the lotto model without the twisting stud, the Zhero Mito Due.

BOOTBANTER thats the only reason why i watched this, to see if it was here

They were also my childhood, but unfortunately that doesn't make them good. The Vapor 4 SL is truly one of my favorite boots of all-time, but they're still a fail.

Those were my favorites too!!

i feel hurt that he thinks these are a fail

all brands lie you genious, wake up!!!!

talks about technology, design, marketing... is interesting from some other points of view

Nike did try a fiberglass sole plate after their venture into carbon fiber. It was as stiff and uncomfortable as you are imagining.

Most companies don’t even manufacture their own products. They outsource production to outside factories. Under Armor just like Nike, Adidas and others simply design & prototype products in-house.

One of the main problems I found with them, which he didn’t mention (but which was a huge problem here in the UK!), was that they weren’t waterproof. Any moisture on the pitch would seep in to the boot through the stud holes in the “upper”. My socks would be absolutely soaked within minutes.

@@TPRM1 lol! That's a massive fail

@@bazzaip2698 Ikr?

Young playee

Younger player

Nike Mercurial Vapor 12 Pro or Elite.

Also, those Brine cleats with the split for the big toe.

Exactly my thoughts. The predators of that era were imo the greatest boot ever made. I wore both the absolute and the powerswerve all through out high school and kept a specific pair of powerswerve's up until about 3-4 years ago due to them finally tearing after 6 years of play. lol I know. Long time to keep a pair, but they were durable as all hell and I tried to only play them for match games. This boot could easily run 1000 wears and still be a killer ass boot. There was just something about the predator.

Agree with you had a pair through 2 years of school footie and Sunday league must of wore them 3 times a week training plus 2 games a week only lost 3/4 studs just out grew them

If it's going to crack, that's typically the spot wear it happens. Age would be a factor at this point as well.

That's a very different, much more simple and solid system. Also, those studs are not meant or designed to be swapped out with plastic ones. The only reason they're removable is so you can replace them once they wear down, which will happen given that they're made from a softer metal.
