Soccer Cleats 101 Soccer Cleats News and Reviews

If you have been watching Italy play at Euro 2012, you might have noticed that several players in the squad have chosen to wear footwear made in their homeland. On a weekly basis, we don’t get to see a great deal of top level players wearing the likes of Lotto …

To go along with the Leather version, a pair of Synthetic Puma evoSPEED 1 arrived for testing. Just from first glance I can tell you that both are designed to offer completely different performance characteristics on the field, with the all around make-up of each both differing in many ways. …

Believe it or not, I actually wrote articles for Men’s fashion magazines before starting SoccerCleats1o1, so when it comes to picking clothes and shoes to wear off the field, I am pretty picky! A few weeks back, I spotted the new Pele Sports Rasunda and reached out to my contact …

Puma are having a quick Friends and Family 40% Off Sale over the next few days, and there is one particular deal that absolutely needed to be highlighted! The Puma V1.11 is currently on sale for $126 – when you take an additional 40% off, that results in a final …

If you are looking for a speed boot that offers a different take from the mainline releases, the Umbro GT2 Pro is a boot that is worth checking out. When this boot was released, they actually garnered plenty of media attention for their full-flavored look and independent charm. In a …

There are several reasons I am excited to test the new Puma evoSPEED 1. Nothing about the boot is extra special and they don’t feature any unique technology, but Puma has made a brave step in transitioning their speed boot away from the V-series design and onto a more streamlined, …

Lotto are back with a new upgraded version of the first laceless soccer cleat ever released, the Zhero Gravity II. Kicking things off is this very sleek and sharp looking Risk Red/White colorway, which features a very Italian vibe thanks to the colors used. Even though it is an upgraded …

A few weeks back, Nike sent over their latest colorway release in the Nike5 Lunar Gato Series range. As you can see from the images, the Imperial Purple/White/Wolf Grey colorway is pretty offbeat and distinctive. It’s not necessarily a colorway I would have went out and purchased myself, but the …

Here is a pretty legit question: If some of the top players from the past were playing today, what boots would they now be wearing? I got thinking about this the other day, and it is a pretty legit question. The market has definitely changed and we are currently engulfed …

Ok, so Ireland might already be out of Euro 2012 (by the way, did you hear the fans singing right through the last 5 mins of the Spain game even though we were 4-0 down – that is real commitment!) but there are the latest 4 episodes of The Gear …

Under Armour welcome a new boot to the market in the form of the lightweight 10K Force Pro II. The concept behind this release is simple – they are a comfortable, speed boot that combines the traction and precision for on-field perfection with the foot-forming cushioning of a running shoe. Kicking …

Spotted this one at SoccerLoco, and the adiPure IV deal proved too good not to highlight. I was a huge fan of both the adiPure III and IV releases and the latter is still available at a terrific price, for the next few days at least. And the best part …

If you are on the market for a highly visible yet somber release, there is probably none better than this new installment of the Umbro Speciali 3. Officially listed as a Pearlized White/Black/Pewter, this colorway carries a clean K-leather upper with some off-beat detailing. Built to be a traditional, no …
