Reflection: Football Boots

Credit: Unisports

On June 14, 2021 - We decided to do a follow up after our Twitter Space Program on Community Grassroots Football Commentators. This time on Football Boots Culture - with Aidy, Arief, Ikhwan, and Josh. Arief and Josh are from Random Stuffs and Bootheads Malaysia respectively. With additions of Arief Daniel, Shamil, and Hasri coming in sharing their thoughts.

90 minutes wasn’t enough - to discuss about football boot culture in Malaysia, especially in the Klang Valley region. We spoke about their first football boots to best football boots they worn. And then we switch gears towards educating fellow listeners about the technical aspects of the boot from the differences in Firm Ground Boots to Artificial Ground Boots. Which opened a lot of ears, especially to those who have direct messaged us immediately after the Twitter Space Program. Like how much getting the wrong football boot for you will inflict a lot of serious pain, physically, mentally, and financially.

Then we spoke about brands - and the encouragement to go beyond Nike and Adidas. Puma, New Balance, Umbro, Asians brands, and even local ASEAN brands. There are affordable as well as high quality football boots out there that will suit the need of the user.

Additionally about the importance of getting authentic football boots. As it is important for your safety and health. Fake or replica boots can injure you.

There was so much we can talk about. In that - We will do a recurring Twitter Space or Clubhouse Room on football boots. Helping out people with tips and reviews. Stay tuned for more!

Again thank you to the speakers and listeners for supporting the program. We look forward to contribute more towards grassroots football through these programs.
