darrenm Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Could I have some suggestions for some good astro boots please? I currently have some cheap Nike 5 things and they're awful. I prefer something a bit more wedge shaped as I'm used to playing in Asics trainers. I try and control the ball with the Nikes and miss it entirely. The Adidas Mundial Team look good, but the Nike Bomba Finale seem to get good reviews. Any opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomsky_11 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I was gonna suggest Nike 5 or similar as I can't stand bulky boots. Never mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted January 14, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted January 14, 2012 I use Nike Tiempos. No nonsense boots. I've had mine for about 2 years and they are awesome. Pretty cheap too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyM3000 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I still prefer proper boots even on astro. Blades or moulds will do, any Addidas boot is good but Preds are the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted January 15, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted January 15, 2012 Depends on the astro. On the new astros boots are fine, but on the old style, the much shorter "grass", unless you've got very shallow moulds you'll be slipping all over the place. Also, a lot of these leisure leagues, power leagues, goals 5 aside leagues don't allow you to wear proper boots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted January 15, 2012 Moderator Share Posted January 15, 2012 Nike Tiempos, for sure. Good quality, leather (rather than ruddy plastic) and comfortable and hard wearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
