A bit hard to get in the air
I bought this so my baseball fanatic kids could do some speed drills. You're supposed to run in short bursts but it was hard to get the parachute to catch enough air to make a difference before the end of their sprint. I tried it myself and couldn't feel much of a difference. Maybe I expected too much or just aren't doing it right.

I was wondering
I had never bought shoes from the interwebs until these. I was worried about the sizing and possible returns but the price sucked me in. What a great experience it was though. Perfect size fast shipping and a great product. I couldn't believe that there were in actual Adidas boxes with all the tags and everything. I completely suggest this product. I LOVE them!

It Did The Trick
I needed a pair of cleats for the occassional ultimate frisbee game. These shoes have held up well for the twenty or so hours I have worn them in games. They felt comfortable when I wore them and gave me a decided advantage as I cut or accelerated across the field.
There is not a lot of ankle support with this shoe but you can see that by looking at the product.
I think that this is the best cheap pair of cleats on the market.

best shoe on the market
the reason why the Copa Mundial has been on the market for 25+ years is that it is the best soccer shoe available.
The leather stays in fantastic shape even when you can't find the time to mink-oil it. The shoe withstands all-weather conditions. I've played in snow blistering heat in the desert rainstorms mud everything. These shoes recover nicely and have given me plenty of mileage.
My first pair gave out on me after four or five full seasons playing year-round. The stitching around the sole of the shoe gave out on me. My next pair of Copas picked right up where the others left off-- no blisters on my feet or ankles. Like wearing a house slipper which are what soccer shoes are supposed to feel like.
I will only buy Copas as long as they are available.

soccer socks
My shoe size is 10 1/2 and I purchased the black medium soccer socks. They are stretchy soft and fit over my shin guards with ease. They fit and are of a suitable material. Only qualm is they seem to lack a serious amount of elasticity at the very top of the sock. They stay up there no matter what but it was something I noticed...
