I have some concern about the durability of the Adidas Salas as my previous pair of Sala 4 lasted about 5 months+ only before the sole started to go. Then again i'm quite hard on my futsal shoes lah. Have to add that the Salas are very comfortable shoes.

If there's a thing that drives me nuts about nike futsal shoes, it's the colour!!!! Can blind your opponents or hypnotize them lah!

use shoe polish to restore the moisture into the leather to keep them soft. most probably the boot got wet and you dried it under the sun, hence the leather hardened.

Only for Digi & HSBC customers and must make booking wan lah! Doubt the predator-x is available though.

Anyone with experience wearing the nike total 90 laser 2? Thinking of making the switch to them from my puma king execs after close to 3 years of wear and tear. Heard they're comfy and fits wider feet well, compared to the newer adidas.

I should be able to get the laser 2 at even cheaper price! Have checked out the factory outlet, and unfortunately they do not have the size thats fits me - UK7 1/2.

Also bear in mind, most Nike are made of hi-tech artificial leather materials while most adidas are still using leather - softer and better "feel" but won't last if not cared properly. I'm talking about the boots of course. Have to agree though if ya talking about the futsal shoes...... my adinova indoors leather uppers are doing well, the sole is a different story!

And, yup like giotto said, it depends on how abusive the player is on their shoes / boots also.

Eric, sent to the cobblers for them to stick it back and stitch it. Should last you quite a while. That's what i did with my Kings.

Crap! Time for the CTR360? Or ya getting the newer Tiempo?

Very true! My boots are bloody clean after yesterday's game. Wahahaha.

dirt will get into your boot and also the insoles will discolour due to the friction with your socks/foot.

My Nike Total 90 Laser II FG LTD - Blazers has arrived safely! Wahahahahaha! Paid RM320 (inclusive of insurance and postage) for them on ebay. The boots alone would have been about RM200 if not for the USPS Priority International Mail that cost me another RM 120. No complains for a pair of boots that would otherwise cost double locally!

Glad to be able to help gto87. The best tip i can give you is always go for registered mail and insuarance! It's more expansive but better be safe then sorry especially if the boots you're paying for is a few hundred bucks. Generally, most stuff for personal consumption below RM500 will be excuse from import duties.

Oi! I'm have not even 1/1000th of his skills. The only thing i am as good him for is fouling ppl and getting into the ref's book.

Oh yah gto87, dun forget to factor in the postage charges when u decide to get them boots from overseas. Some smart buggers will charge cheap for them but slaughter you nicely with expansive shipping and handling charges!

I notice now most of the futsal shoes have thinner and thinner soles. Not something good if you tend to play a lot on hard surfaces - those carpet / rubber court that is just laid on top of super hard concrete floors of warehouses. Both my left and right achilles tendons are taking a pounding.... not help by the rather un-supportive indoor adidas adinovas that i have - damn adiprene shock absorbing material ain't doing their job! Never had this kind of problem playing on the astro turf surfaces or on grass. Or izzit i'm getting old!

Anyone interested in getting a pair of Nike Total 90 Laser II - Limited Edition Orange color, sized UK7 / US8? I got for about RM350 and willing to let it go for about RM175. Used for less than 10 times and in pretty good condition - 80%. Comes with the ori shoe bag.
