Not surprised by Hammer and Affinity but maybe NB softs. I guess they aren't offensive just maybe a little plain.
Will have to remember to revisit this discussion after the 2014 season

To revise my earlier post, please can nobody read anything into the phrase "made by Hammer".  Perhaps not the best choice of words, but hope you know what I mean!  :)

Too much mesh for me and in such a bright colour scheme. All that's missing is the Velcro fastener instead of laces

It looks decent, wearable and similar to Puma in colour scheme. I like the concept that led to incorporation of mesh and is a good alternative to spiked trainers. The price bracket and the competitors it's likely to come up against would affect the sales. I hope these shoes really does what it says on the tin.

I think they are too loud - like most cricket shoes nowadays.

They're disgusting! Saw them on twitter a few months back and look like they have a connection with Peter Trego or his brother down in Somerset? I like the concept of the spikes trainers but I think this would be better coming from either nike or asics doing a limited run of their top selling trainer spiked up. Such as the Nike free runs or Asics Gel Kayano

I think they look gash, but they will probably sell, personalised footwear has hit football ridiculously because you wana look like the pros, I bet if someone set up a way to personalise the big named spikes you'd make a killing.

Id imagine pro direct already do as they manage most of the printshop footballers boots for personalisation.

I really don't like the look of these. I prefer my cricket shoes to be mainly white and not look like I got them from Aldi!

Hi Paul
I think they look good, price is right, but nothing like trying them on.
Cheers

Am I the only one who thinks they look alright??
(But I was the kid who got bullied at school because I had Gola trainers so I'm not the best judge by whats already been posted here...)

I'd be more concerned that the designers knew how to design footwear properly, seeing nothing on the website describing how they do this. Wouldn't want blisters and for pain halfway through the first match.
