...available. Onto the Nike Tiempo. These were my first choice a short while back as they look very sturdy and they are so comfortable that during the 90mins you cannot even feel them as they are as light as paper.

The reason why PVC has been used is due to the fact that PVC is extremely light weight so it shouldnt affect your genral speed and agility when either in a game or training.

...to more modern counterparts around 0.4kg in size large. Where their addidas equivalents weigh just 0.26kg and believe it or not these slight variations can be the edge you need to get to the ball. Especially for the slower runner for whom i would advise to buy the lightest boots and shinpads. A good pair of boots for low weight are pumas that can be bought for as little as £20 online in last seasons styles. However the lighter shinpads may not provide ... Read review
