Hi,

Last season I bought some new bladed boots from adidas and within 3 or 4 games was out for the season with damage to my left anterior cruciate, nice. I firmly believe this was due to the blades as it was the first time I had ever worn them in many many years of playing footy...

so, now I am all recovered can anyone recommend to me some kick ass studded boots? i'm not even sure what the most advanced boots are currently.. and the majority i seem to look at all have the bloody blades! :(

atm, my eye is on these http://shop.adidas.co.uk/product/Q7184/G01...UNIT/detail.jsf

but they are madly expense, and seem to be the only ones from adidas that have studs this year!

any other suggestions?

You can get previous models of the F50 boots, for example these: http://www.prodirectsoccer.com/prodinfo.as...p;PROFILE=Speed for a fair bit cheaper, you can also get models previous to that for ?30's in certain stores. Personally I use AdiPure boots, however they come in blades, which I have never had a problem with and own a pair of AdiPures in both plastic and metal blades, mainly because the metal blades appear to wear away when the ground is hard as they are designed for soft ground. Thats the only complaint I have about blades.

EDIT: In answer to the Nike question, these boots: http://www.prodirectsoccer.com/prodinfo.as...ROFILE=Heritage I think come in different variations of stood (plastic, metal etc) and Im persuming are good boots.

Studs are definitely better than blades, it is just a shame that there is a much larger selection of blades available these days.

The World Cup's are apparently pretty good...

they are a tad expensive but are prob the best boots around....

More or less every decent pair of boots will be available in both blades and studs if you look hard enough. I have two pairs of Nike Legends, one studded and one blades. Aswell as bladed preds. All fine boots, all come in handy too depending on where Im playing.

I am looking at the new F50is though!

Got a couple of pairs, both Puma.

My current blades are the best pair of boot's I've ever worn: V1.08i. Very light, very comfortable and a good surface area for striking the ball.

Def reccomend.

My other pair are boots are studs; Puma v-Konstrukt II SG; and are a bit heavier, very comfortable and perfect for wet ground.

For me, Puma boots are better than the others - very good quality, very comfortable and over all excellent boots.

so, to follow up follow up on this thread, i got some black F50i TUNiT boots yesterday, and went down the park this afternoon to test them out/wear them in a bit

OH MY GOD, they are amazing! :D

I don't know what they are coated in, but it's slightly tacky (sticky) and the control you get is mad. Also, they are so light and thin, it pretty much feels like there isn't anything there..

I am very impressed, and even though i vowed never to spend this much on a pair of boots... my god, I definitely think they are worth it!

    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      By KD2004 · Posted

      For me it has everything feature wise that I want. But boy the app sucks big time. This and Teams. Ever since they made the transition to WebView it has been slow AF. I mostly use both apps in the browser now because of too much memory being used by these 2 apps. Hoping that native versions are being worked upon.
    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11 by Taras Buria The May 2026 Steam Hardware & Software Survey results are now available on the official Steam website, showing Windows 11's continuous growth among the gaming audience. As of early June 2026, nearly 70% of all participants reported having a Windows 11-powered PC, while Windows 10's market share is steadily declining. According to Valve, in May 2026, Windows 11 increased its market share to 69.76% (+2.02 points), while Windows 10 dropped to 23.99% (-1.64 points). 64-bit Windows 7 is still showing up in Valve's reports, and apparently, about 0.07% of all survey participants still use the 17-year-old operating system. Valve no longer updates its client for Windows 7, but it still can access the platform, so the Windows 7 holdouts can stay away from newer Windows versions. Overall, 93.85% of all users run Windows (+0.38 points), while Linux is second with 3.99% (-0.53 points). macOS is third with at 2.16% (+0.15 points). The most popular Linux flavor is Arch Linux (0.35%), while macOS 26.4.1 is currently the dominant macOS release. On the hardware side, the most popular picks include an Intel processor (53.94% against AMD's 46.06%) with six cores (28.02%, -0.6 points), 16 GB of memory (41.14%, -0.28 points), and an NVIDIA graphics card (72.42%, with AMD having 19.13% and Intel 8.05%). The most popular graphics card on Steam is the desktop NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (3.85%, -0.14 points), while the laptop RTX 4060 is second with 3.77%, and the RTX 3050 is third with 3.10%. The average amount of VRAM is 8GB (25.89%), and the dominant display resolution is the classic 1920x1080 pixels (51.89%, -0.32 points). As usual, you can find more details from the latest survey on the official website. The results for April 2026 are available here.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      This would be the ideal scenario for the context menus
    • Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off

      Personally, I think these things are way over rated and way over priced, even at this price. I recently had Frontier Fiber installed with 2 of these devices and although they worked, I switched back to my own router and AP setup and get way better consistency on wireless speed than with Eeros. Wired speed seems to be more consistent also. Will be returning Eeros soon. I had told Frontier I didn't want them to begin with.

      Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.
