I wore, for many years (70s) Pumas of some kind, made of kangeroo skin as I remember, the name evades me. They were gorgeous, like gloves to wear.

Puma Kings?

I was about to post that! After a web search, I found them.

I bought a white pair in about 1999, just like Benito Carbone.

 

They were 2 sizes too small, crippled my feet and I couldn't play.

 

Got them for 15 quid though and I looked so cool

They are absolutely stunning.

Ended up going for these. Would have preferred them in black and maroon but non in my size.

Bought a pair of the laceless boots that have the sock thing on them not too long ago… quickly sent back after realising my feet were too wide for that kind of boot 

 

Now rocking a simple pair of these, although may look to get some new ones soon with how regularly I am starting to play again

 

These were the ones I set out thinking I was getting but I was out off a bit by the shape and when I watched the video reviews they are said the material isn’t very flexible.

They are okay, probably about what you can expect for £30

Bought my first pair of football boots since school days

 

I'm size 11 in normal shoes, ordered 11, 11.5 and 12 of these

Even the 12s feel too small, so hoping someone can help.

 

Do boots often run smaller than normal? And should they be a very snug fit even when the right size?

 

Cheers and sorry for the probably daft questions!

 

 

Edit: all sorted in the end, tried another pair of Adidas at a shop and they fit fine in normal size.
