Advantages: Quality, durability, comfort. Disadvantages: Nothiing, but try to get a lower price online.
I should stress before starting this review that I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, a bowler, so what follows is written very much from the point of view of a batsman/wicket keeper.
BASIC INFORMATION
The Puma Signature FullSpike is a lace up cricket shoe, and, as the name suggests, is spiked both at the toe and heel end of the shoe.
It is predominantly white, with a red, black & grey trim and retails at between £40 and £60 (as usual, you'll pick up some better deals online if you search it out).
The heel has 4 spikes, the toe 6, but it is possible to fit fakes to keep just the toe half spiked or to fit pimple spikes, but there are plenty of shoes out there that offer this as a basic anyway, and it would make sense that, were you looking to buy a 'fullspike' shoe, you'd be looking to keep them all in!

I had two blisters after first use, on the inside edge of my right foot, but this seemed to be just a case of wearing them in. Seemed fine on second wearing. ...
, and produces great torque at even low revs thanks to its excellent Zetec variable valve technology. Acceleration is superb with traction control at low-speed, complemented by the exilarating engine sounds (allegedly Ferrari-style audibly tuned) The car is front-wheel driven, and handling is stable with little body roll, and predictable, producing understeer in most conditions. Good brakes and ABS as standard help you stop on a dime. Large treads on the stylish Puma alloys encourage you to push the Puma to the limits.
Internally the car is arranged as a 2+2 with spacious boot (suprisingly its larger than our Mazda 323 hatchback's boot) The dash is finished in standard black, trimmed with silver panelling and details. Driver instruments finished as clearly visible white dials, rally-style. The look is topped off with an Aluminium Alloy ...
