I've always used whatever shoes I've had...nice cross treainers or running shoes:eek: and I finally ruined my last pair last week.

I'm thinking adidas sambas....anyone care to give their input?


I like stopping HARD and messing with the offense (I am a defensinge guy most of the time) so I need something tough. I was goign to try my puma's but they are probably going to get torn up.


<---usually buys didadoras for outside, and enver bothered to buy indoor shoes.....jsut never started playing inside regularly until now;o

Sambas are terrible

No comfort


I don't know specifically what to reccomend.
Just look for something with some padding and sole support


Maybe Kelme's

I've used both Samba and those colorful stylish Puma's (kings?) and both are fine... and it doesn't really matter if you can't play ;)

ended up going with Sambas because I was strapped for time. I really like them compared with the other POS's that I had. I don't play for a league. Me some friends, and invites play a game every sunday.....


ended up only making like 3 or 4 goals tonight because I wasn't used to these:( Before I was using some old nike air running shoes whose air bubbles had popped, so I was used to playign with shoes that leaned 30deg. to the outside. :eek:
having a level sole felt strange and threw me off. That said, the arch support is fantastic and I love these things. Also, dribbling is so much better in these than my running shoes:eek: doing 10 everytime is no biggie now:D

Also, some dude tripped me when I was attacking, hit the ball so it bouned and pushed my leg back and up, I flew up/foward, and landed on my knee with all my body weight behind me...on a gym floor...


it still fvking hurts like a bitch right now...driving home hurt so much....especially since I had gotten up and played for like another hour after it happened:eek:


good times though.

Samba K's are a higher quality Samba, made of Kangaroo Leather. They last like 5 times as long. I have gone through 2 pairs of Sambas over the last few years and I have friends who play just as much as me (3-4 times a week), and they have lasted over 5 years.

I got a pair of Kelme Reyes about 3 months ago and they are just now starting to get worked in. I like them, but they seem very stiff and are tough to loosen up.

I use my main pair on longer indoor turf and outdoor, but they are cleats. I love them better than any other soccer shoes I have ever had. They are Adidas Pulsados. (that link is a pic of my exact shoes) Pulsado is the series name and they make about 1000 different Pulsados.

sounds nice. I have some didadoras but I don't know what type they are...:eek:

I basically got the classic sambas because that is all sports authority had:eek:

I would have gone somewhere better but my old shoes were, frankly, dangerous sine they were so messed up and could mess up my knees if not all ready, and I had to work late:(

I wear my street shoes :p

But then, I'm just pregame cannon-fodder for the woman - I don't actually PLAY.

She has 2 pairs - 1 pair Samba K's, 1 pair of cheap, apparently unbranded crap.

Samba Ks are $75 everywhere and regular Sambas are usually about $50. Well worth the upgrade, but not everywhere sells them locally.

Your standard Sambas are great shoes though, and much better than a 30º inclined shoes :)

<---not here to playa hate;)

My job is something to the effect of "let her get her aim dialed in for crotch and face shots". They call me a "warm up partner" - but more or less, I stand there, deflecting balls that are headed towards one of my two heads. Gives the other team a taste of what to expect - particularly the guys (this is a co-ed league)

you have to play and fvking own them for them to hit on you or for you to hit on them....

it's so easy to say "so you ladies and diner? on me....you'll owe me later." when they feel like sh!t for losing or if they are riled up for losing


<--like the riled up ones the most:evil:
