What's a good soccer (football) boot for a striker?

Question

I've been playing since I was 3 so for 10 years now will be 11 years in December. I have had Adidas Predators PowerSverwe for the past 2 years and I'm emotionally attached to them but I need new ones because mine are falling apart from playing soccer 300 days a year, whether just playing on the street or playing against a team. I know Mercurial is a good boot but I just got back from a soccer camp and this guy on my team had it and I asked him if it was good. He said it was light and easy to run fast with but it gave him huge blisters.

Answer 1

puma v1.06/8s i wore them last year and scored a bundle

they are light and extremely comfy , i think they are a nice looking boot. they are nicely shaped for speed and precision shooting. they arent as expensive as nike or adidas however i and mates of mine who have tryed them agree . they do a far better job

a link for the v1.08s

if you are willing to spend more money i suggest the v1.08s

however the v1.06s are good also but much cheaper

Answer 2

I would stick to the Adidas Predator PowerSwerves. I think those are nice shoes, I have the Adidas Predator Absolion and like them. If I did more shooting I would get the PowerSwerves, but since I play Defence mostly I like the Absolions. The F50s are also nice shoes, but I would think for a striker the PowerSwereve because of the Power Pulse insert.  

Answer 3

the same as any other position.

Answer 4

Any Pair Of Nike Vapours

They Are Super Light, Feel Lyk Slippers When They Are On Your Feet And Will Make Yo Run Your Maximum Speed.

Answer 5

simple

nike t90 laser for power [worn by gennaro gattuso]

addidas f50.8 for accuarcy [worn be jemain defoe]

addidas f50.8 leather for speed[worn by david villa]

personally i would go for the addidas f50.8 leather

Answer 6

get some Total 90 Lasers.

best boot i have ever worn.

dont get the knock off cheap c**p though.

get the real 180$ kangaroo leather T90 Lasers.

get the first version because they are much higher quality and they wont be around much longer so you will be unique on the pitch

Answer 7

Personally, I used the Adidas Predators PowerSwerve forever, and loved them, I currently wear Vapors, which are an awesome boot, but as your friend said they do give me terrible blisters on my heels which suck.  However you can run fast and have a little more control of the ball.  Personally if I could get a new boot I would go for the 50.8 leather, but you can't go wrong with the Laser, depending on your style, but I feel like all-around speed plus ball control the leather are your best bet.  

Or you could just by Predators again.

Answer 8

stick with the T90 laser

i've had them for over a year and i haven't suffered from any blisters, they are very easy to run in, give you an extra bust of speed when you need it the most.  and it helps you add that extra jolt of accuracy to your shot.  Worn by ME, Fernando Torres, Sergio Ramos, Ricardo, Wayne Rooney and more. so you know this boot can be used in any position its a flexible boot that can help anyone improve their game

Answer 9

i think vapors are better just wear double socks while breaking them in and you wont get blisters
