I agree with the tiempo as the best choice for the budget. First of all, if money isnt an issue, id recommend you take the time to research what kind of players use each kind of boot. for example, the T90's from nike are mainly meant for strikers, and the F50 for wingers or technical people. However, with the tiempo, people of any position can use it well because its known to give such a good control of the ball; which is very important in soccer. The nike slogan for the tiempos are that they offer excellent touch on the ball. That is true, it wraps your foot well and is made from soft synthetic leather. Trapping the ball has never been easier. Passing it feels even better. Looking at the studs, they are also circular, meaning you have the ability to exert greater force on the ground, making you more agile on the pitch if you want to turn back quickly and stop the runner with the ball. Nikes are also damn famous for creating durable boots that last. In terms of looks, i kind of like the simple old school style of the tiempos, theyve always been nice as startup shoes. If you can, find the discount or older versions of the tiempos. they might be older models but that really doesnt mean theyre any bit worse, its just the marketing that makes you feel iffy. some boots nowadays are getting too fancy with looks and technology. old school gets the job done. good luck shoe hunting! |
