Can't decide...

Post by jspan1013 »

Well I'm getting back into playing and need some lavers so i spotted these and fell in love with them - http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-ADIDAS-ROD-LAVE ... 53df6c7faf
First off, can someone tell me if they're all mesh, or have a leather toe stall area?
Im not really feeling them if they have any leather all mesh would be great.
Its either I buy these in a few days when i have the money or i nuy the white/blue lavers from WorldFootbag..

Hey, my friend has a pair of those. The sides are not mesh, they're a leather of sorts. And as for the toe area, it's kind of like a thick suede. If you wanted to kick with these, you'd need to cut off both the outer layers on the inside and toe. They're also a tad heavier than mesh lavers.

So ultimately, they're very cool looking lavers, but if you want them for freestyling, they'd require the mods

There are all-black mesh lavers as well. Or, if you're up for a shoe that will challenge you to have precise form and style, there are all-black nucleus shoes as well. Not sure if you can still buy all-black quantums.
BRICK!

Thanks, i loved my first pair of regular lavers everything about them is amazing, nice price, bag feel, playabillity, comfort and breathabillity.

*On a side note, i got some of the basics down when i had my two benzilla bags i think i got atws, clippers, mirage, pixie, illusion, and a couple more 2 add moves. All in all, i dont think thats too bad for having prior soccer and hacking experience. And for only playing maybe 2 months an a half tops.
Right now, im focusing on meeting other players, hacking, little bit of freestyle and just overall having phone.
Oh and thanks Matt.

I wish Quantum production can jumpstart again in the future. These shoes are still my favorite for footbag shred.
