were they elite or shit?

Had a pair myself. GOAT imo.
Shit. The elastic would get fucked after a few weeks then you're left with the tongue of the shoe ("boot" for the Euros) flapping around and pissing you off. Also, what the fuck was with the stud that was placed right below the ball of your foot? Which stupid cunt actually thought that was a good idea?
>>76146782
still have mine
still work
therefore theyre elite

Soak the tongue in boiling water then clip it down for a night. They will never flap around again. Do this with my Copas every year.

Thank you, magical expat weeb.
I like them way more than the boots these days.
There was a local retailer here that had a few of these still. I bought two pairs from them recently, one firm ground one soft ground.

These are the GOAT predators
This tears the ACL of many young high school athletes in high school... arguably one of the worst boots ever...
Another boot with studs that tears acls or miniscus in young players knees...

Why do they cause acl tears?

These were the best cleats i ever wore hands down....
Second would be copas, third would be the 2003 vapors
specialis are a meme, predators are a meme, total 90s had no touch and were clunky
>>76152578
not sure... just rememeber a lot of people going down that year... It was a new akward stud configuration and it wasnt because of the player..
>>76152578
I assume because of the studs
I had pic related, meh I was never good enough that it mattered anyway

These are the GOAT

explain this in detail my eastern comrade
guys riddle me this
are there actually people researching and testing stud configuration and shit, like biomechanics experts and orthopaedic technicians and assorted rocket scientists,
or are some random fashion designers just throwing darts at a dartboard in the shape of a football boot
i'm kinda doubting there's real research going into this shit desu

I'm sure they put enough thought into it that it will be comfortable, functional, and sell well, but how much they spend on r&d also determines how much you pay. For the shoes the literal GOAT Christianity Ronaldo wears - yes they probably do a lot of research. For Messi'a shoes, probably not as much.

Adipowers are the goat predators.

>elastic would get fucked after a few weeks
What the fuck? I had mine for years and the elastic lasted the enitre time.
Were you playing on artificial turf with them like a clueless dumbass?
