Shoaib Akhtar talks about his spikes
« on: October 17, 2010, 05:53:37 AM »

I was watching the video (below) and found it very interesting. We usually overlook the equipment's importance. So in this short video SHoaib Akhtar talks about his boots to Dean Jones during Pakistan vs India series which was held in Pakistan.

Ian Mason boots are made to measure, so a little attention spent would go to show that they should be the best fit since they actually mirror the foot.
