Like most 70s kids, mugged off with Winfields to start with then got Gola. Remember getting a pair of Patrick at some point, I think Kevin Keegan was endorsing them at the time but they weren’t all that

A pair of Quasar football boots which were endorsed by Gary Lineker
They would have been the cheapest ones but they ripped my feet to ribbons. Soon upgraded to Lotto boots. They were much better at least they had some padding.

A ‘mystery’ pair of cripplers that me old man got down brick lane one Sunday.
Then went on to the winfields and then one christmas i finally saw the ‘Adidas’ box under the tree. Opened it up expecting the Beckenbauers but it was Valencia rip-offs.
Hard as rock.

I don’t remember my first football boots, possibly gola or mitre, but I had a pair of boots given to me by one of our very own.
But when I split up with his daughter, he asked for them back.

Those leather ones that went a few inches up your leg with a hard toe section, like those that Nat Lofthouse and Stan Mathews used to wear. This was around 1955

Feel sorry for my kid brother, he got to wear my worn hand me downs probably at least 3 sizes too big with paper stuffed down the toe ends.
No wonder he hates all sports.

Can't remember. It's too long ago. What they certainly weren't were those George Best ones that had the laces over on one side.
I remember someone at Primary school having a pair and thinking it was probably a good idea to have the laces out of the way where you actually strike the ball.
