Great practical boots. Yet Uhlsport better learn very quickly that aesthetics as well as practicality are a selling point. Lets face it, these boots look like crap.

Lisa,
If she comes out to play on the field I would not recommend them – they have been designed specifically for goalkeepers and offer a completely different shape to what outfield players wear. The Copa Mundials are actually a great option, maybe check out the adiPure range as they offer a similar fit, but different designs!

My 15 year old daughter wants these cleats. Before I purchase them I would love some feedback from people who have them already. She has Adidas Copa Mundials right now that she loves but she would love to try these out. She's in the goal most of the time, but comes out to play defense sometimes. We worry that these cleats will not be good for her short time on the field.. But, her heart (and most of her time) are spent in the box…

Eugene,

That is a pretty good idea..you should patent it before someone else does!! One benefit that Uhlsport have is the fact that they are so prominent in the goalkeeping world (gloves and goalkeeper sweats etc)…if they can establish themselves as the go to soccer cleat for goalkeepers they will be taking 1/11th of the market…which in soccer terms is a lot of money! One thing I have noticed is just the fact that people are becoming more familiar with the Uhlsport name because of the conversation being created by its design (a lot of people are not fans) and hey, that is the ultimate goal right?

tres,
Once we get some proper reviews together I will share them with the team at soccer.com!

You should post something as a review on soccer.com because a lot of clueless people are bringing its rating way down.

Uhlsport’s actually been making a variation of this boot for some time. I want to say that they’ve had this boot as of 10 years ago but I don’t really remember. I know Just-Keepers were selling them. But in the past, the boot didn’t have a cleated toe but only additional cleats on the lateral side of the forefoot. It still maintained a raised heel though.

But the slice of this pie is so small. It pertains to only 1 of 11 players on the pitch and even then the benefits may not be strong enough to pull buyers. It would be cool if it could become a modular thing. If let’s say Uhlsport did an F50-esque boot in which added pieces could include a raised heel and additional studs on the forefoot.
