who wears cleats... earn your man card and use boots!

Actually while I do wanna try these, im also turned off by sizes they offer and color. I dont use blue anything, and chances are the 12s wont fit me

Im more then happy with my 511 tactical 6" ATAC's, they are stupid light while offering great traction and being very comfortable

What are the actual length of the cleats on these shredders? Because I would argue that regular cleats (football, soccer etc) would perform better and last longer. They look more like turf shoes to me.

whats funny is these look a hell of a lot like the ecco street golf shoes, if they are even half as confortable as those they would be win. Problem is the expense.....just like the ecco's

$70 isn't too bad for a pair of cleats. Still not a fan of these, don't think they'll have the traction. To each their own

Im a total hypocrite for saying this considering what I posted on the last page.

Sure Dye and JT were reserved for the fanboys back then, but this takes it to a whole new level. What exactly are people not seeing here?

Not unlike most of the other brands in paintball nowadays.

Also, if you're asking them to make a bigger shoe then chances are you shouldn't be buying these because you're a probably a grown *** man. These should only go up to a girls size 8, because that is how I treat people that decorate themselves in this trendy junk...

Mad? No... before one of the agglets chime in here. Some of the players that have been around for longer than a decade are growing tired of kids, that typically cannot afford to play without parental assistance, driving players away from the game.

Lets be honest, people like this are the last thing the player community should want the as the face of paintball. It had once been families in camo, having a good time in the woods. Now it seems that the younger players are simply dropped off by their parents.

Something not right about guys wearing girls clothing, maybe I'm just old fashioned...

You just likened a cleated shoe to girls clothing...

That was stupid.

You also seem to think that style is irrelevant, which only tells me that you have none.

You don't have to spend a lot of money to have style, and you don't even need to conform to the latest trends, but that's all lady talk to you huh?

You better believe I'll never sacrifice function for style, but if the difference between a pair of cleats that I like and a pair that I think are ugly is only $10, then I'll drop that bit of extra cash on them.

As it is, I think these look pretty functional, maybe even more so than my regular choice of footwear. But they're about $20 more than I normally pay for cleats and the ones I have now still have about six months more use left in them (and man do they look sweet too...).

Paintball News Rules
  1. No Upping threads. If you have something to say, please do, but don't post in the thread just to take it to the top of the forum.
  2. Do not post "1st post", "1st", "First post" or anything similar (or with any other number) at any point in a thread, even if you post a comment too. It is really annoying and it will result in a ban.
  3. If you don't like something, say why instead of just calling it ugly, lame, gay or any other name. If it is old, simply post a link or report the post with a link to the older News thread.
  4. Please don't post links for places to buy items. That encourages stores, sponsored players and other people to do it and spam the site.
If you have questions, please post them in the Talk to Mods/Admins forum.
