2011-12 Boot Review

The 2011-12 football season is up and running but rather than analyse the transfers that have taken place so far or give you my opinion on where I feel the league title's going, I want to look at the football boots the players are wearing today.

Gone are the days of the 1980's and early 90's, when players graced the pitch equipped with – in what we'd call today –'boring old boots' .

Puma's from the 1980's era

Players are now sporting some outrageously flamboyant pieces of footwear, and boot manufacturers seem to be getting more creative every season.

Check out some of the football boots players will be sporting this season.

ATTENTION: Some of the colours may cause you to squint – you've been warned!

Nike Total 90 - Blue/Volt/Black: The boot of choice for Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel


Adidas F50 adizero - Electric/Purple: Barcelona maestro Lionel Messi's weapons
