Addidas Predator is worn by more professionals than any other cleat. Shell out the $200 and buy the best.

Save your money for more important things. Professionals wear the highest end cleats because the cleats are given to them by companies that want kids to see that the professionals wear their most expensive and profitable shoe.
Pele wore a shoe that was of worse quality than today's $50 cleats.

yes but the predator is the only shoe to improve your game. Those plastic pads allow me to do things to the ball that I cannot do with any other shoe. I can spin and dip the ball a lot better and I find the accuracy is better and my first touch is better as well.

i love the trick these companies put on. All that talk. It a placebo. you can take a sugar pill and cure anyhting if you believe it. There is a reason that copas are still around and that style is copied so much. go with a decent shoe that will hold up.

Copas are very comfortable. I know all about placebo effects as well but I have empiracally verified this by trying copas, and predators, and other shoes such as diadora. The predators have always given me the advantage. I have a very strong leg, so maybe that has something to do about it. If you are weak legged then maybe the predator shoe will not give you the advantage that I spoke about above.

i would go with a pair of hiking boots... i can't put a point on it, but something about them gives me fantastic traction. they only weigh about 4 pounds each, so if you can manage to build up enough strength to kick your leg back, the weight of the boot as well as the gravitational pull of the earth will come through with quite a mighty boot. i also play naked.

There is something to be said about the original Copa Mundial. How many pairs of cleats can be made and look exactly the same for 15+ years and still be a good selling product. Next in line would be Puma Kings. Call me old fashioned, but hey.......it hasn't been around all these years, because it's junk.

I'm guessing hot water.....I would hope they don't shrink too much when you take them off......

how long do you let them soak? and do you keep them on your feet afterwards just for a little while?
