Football News > Football Boots - Boot Spotting! - 08/03/10



The Umbro Stealth Pro football boots made their on-pitch debut this weekend, in both the Premier League and the Primera Division. Plus, our growing army of boot spotters had some great spots from around the world...

 

PHIL JAGIELKA (Everton)


Jagielka is making a welcome return to the Everton side, and it was a strong performance in the Stealth football boots, from a player who has previously worn Speciali's and SX Valor's.

VALVERDE CARLOS (Melbourne Victory)

Dropping into our inbox was a great boot spot of Valverde Carlos, from one of our community members. The Melbourne Victory player's custom Predator X football boots are a unique choice as they are a great looking colourway, but don't match his kit!

GLEN WHELAN (Stoke City)

 

It was good to see Whelan playing in Nike Tiempo Premier football boots, and going against mainstream with his boot selection. The Nike Tiempo Premier's are a great performance boot, and one of the boots that launched Nike in the world of football boots.

RICARDO QUARESMA (Inter Milan)

 

Quaresma has previously played in adidas adiPure football boots, but the new red F50i boots are such a good looking colourway we can understand Ricardo switching. Although the F50i football boots are a proven performance boot with fellow wingers Arjen Robben and Ashley Young.

LIAM RIDGEWELL (Birmingham City)

 

Ridgewell has customised pairs of Nike CTR360 Maestri boots to match both his home and away Birmingham City kits. And it has to be said these yellow/black/white football boots are a great colourway.

DIEGO CAPEL (Sevilla)

 

Diego Capel was the second player spotted this weekend wearing the new Umbro Stealth football boots, which are perhaps more suited to Capel's fast and tricky game. Capel had previously worn the Umbro Speciali football boots, but the new Stealth colourway will match both Sevilla's home and away strips.

PAUL SCHOLES (Manchester United)

 

Paul Scholes scored his 100th Premier League goal for Manchester United wearing the Nike T90 Laser III football boots. Scholes has worn Total 90 boots for some time now, and has scored some great goals on the way to 100.

DANNY WEBBER (Portsmouth)

 

Not a regular in the Portsmouth side, but Danny Webber is confident enough to wear a completely unique football boot. The Concave football boots have a unique strike zone covering the lace-cover, which as you might guess is concave to make better contact with the ball.

LANDON DONOVAN (Everton)

 

Landon Donovan has made quite an impression in the Premier League since his arrival. Not just because of his performances, but also because of his football boots. Despite wearing the same upper Donovan's sole-plates have varied, and against Hull it appeared he was wearing soft-ground studs on a carbon-fibre plate.

XAVI (Barcelona)

 

This could be the first time Barcelona midfielder Xavi has played in the latest adidas Predator X football boots, instead the creative playmaker has worn his Rome edition PowerSwerves. But we can understand why after the fantastic 2009 Xavi had.

March 9, 2010 5:04 AM
 

Gerrards right peg said:

Im surprised people actually know about Victory. Yes he did wear the adipures I think. When they said Valverde Carlos, I thought they might have got confused with Hernandez (the A-league's best player). But Victory, another grand final appearence after the BELTING OF THOSE SYDNEY IDIOTS!!! Come on Archie!
