Soccer Equipment Guide

Another awsome shirt from Slovenia, no doubt about it. We’ve already covered their 10-11 away shirt here and now that Nike released the 10-11 home shirt I must say that it is just as good looking as the away one and they’ll also be wearing it at the Soccer World Cup in South Africa this summer. Here it is:

Boot Specs:

TRACTION ON DEMAND – The game is accelerating; and if you aren’t you won’t be in it for long. Mercurial is designed to make you one of the most feared players on the pitch.

ADAPTIVE TRACTION – the game can change in a split second, now so can your boots. The Superfly II has a traction system that instantaneously adapts to the playing conditions to provide optimal traction. Pressure sensitive studs are strategically placed in the forefoot to extend up to 3mm in response to both ground firmness and player acceleration.

Features:

QUICK RECOGNITION, high contrast, high visibility colour scheme allows for teammates to find you quicker.

FIT AND COMFORT, flywire technology is threaded throughout delivering a precise fit and optimal support.

ULTRA-LIGHT RIDE, the carbon fibre composite plate reacts instantly to your demands for speed.

ADAPTIVE TRACTION, two pressure sensitive studs adapt to provide superior grip and instant acceleration on all field conditions.

VAPOR TRACTION, strategically configured blades offer the perfect footing for quick cutting in all directions.

TOE-OFF TRACTION, concentrated forefoot traction zones for an extra burst of speed.

We’re not done with the shirt releases! We continue our series with Croatia’s 10-11 away shirt that’s been recently released. Croatia is one of the best teams that haven’t made it to the World Cup in South Africa, that’s certain. You can nonetheless cheer them up a bit by buying their new away shirt. Here’s how it looks like:

One of the new entries in the World Cup tournament, New Zealand, released its 10-11 away shirt, one that they’ll also be wearing in South Africa. IT LOOKS AWESOME! That’s all I have to say on it. Other than that, it’ll interesting to see what they can do at the World Cup. If Australia wouldn’t have moved to Asia they would have had a much tougher time getting qualified. Here’s the shirt:

Slovenia, a talented country of about 2 million who is going for the second time at the World Cup, after their South Korean experience in 2002, has released its 10-11 away shirt that they’ll also be wearing in South Africa this summer. My take on it is that it looks very good; I guess that the brighter line represents the mountains. Not bad at all from Nike. Here it is:
