Nike Magista Onda football boots

Who doesn't love a good bargain? 
We certainly do and are always on the look out for the best deals.


Our favourite places for getting football boots online are Pro direct soccer and Lifestyle sports as they always have great deals/discounts.

This time we checked out the Clearance section on Lifestyle sports where we found a pair of 
Nike Magista Onda Firm ground football boots for 
Only 25 Euro!!

And they are Adult size too...


Now, personally I (Fiona) have never been a fan of this particular model and the colours always seemed a bit over the top for me, but we decided to buy them and use them to customise and see if we could turn them into something better. After all, Who could say no for €25?


They arrived the following day by courier (Which is another reason for loving Lifestyle sports, they do next day delivery in Ireland which is fantastic)

The first impression of these boots was that they were actually extremely eye catching in person. They never really impressed us much looking at them on a computer screen, however we were pleasantly surprised when we un-boxed these.

So let's take a look at some info on the boot according to the lifestyle sports description
(Now I am not entirely sure it is 100% correct)



ADULT MAGISTA ONDA FIRM GROUND

For the playmaker, the setter upper the one who creates those golden opportunities.
 The Nike Magista Obra firm ground gives a barefoot feel and the ultimate control.

PRODUCT FEATURES

  • Mesh layer for a lightweight feel and breathability
  • Textured skin for excellent ball control
  • Pebax « nylon plate for extra support
  • Firm-ground studs for use on short-grass or slightly wet pitches




Being so impressed by the look of these boots and how soft the material felt I decided to actually try them out at training later on that night. 
Originally I planned to just go right ahead and customise them as I didn't buy them because I liked them, But...


When I put the boots on they felt great, they were the perfect fit and extremely comfortable from the get go. 
Usually it takes a while for me to break in new boots and the first couple of training sessions they tend to be painful. However, these fit so perfectly there was no break in time at all.


The touch on the ball was also great due to the design and material the boots are made from. 
The material is strong and the soul plate is flexible making them extremely comfortable to kick the ball and to run in. 

In my opinion, these football boots are ideal for defenders, you can feel comfortable going in for those hard tackles knowing that the boots are strong enough to offer protection while still giving you a great touch on the ball. 

I have been wearing these for a few weeks now and I am still very impressed, even to the point I don't currently want to try out any other boots. 
But hey being a blogger you have to change it up!




Rating:
Appearance - 4/5
Comfort - 5/5
Grip - 4/5 (Yet to test in wet conditions)
Price - 5/5
Durability (so far) - 5/5

Gold spray painted football boots.

Spray painted football boots.

As you may know from our YouTube channel and Instagram page, 
we received a pair of Fake PureControl's to rest and review.

We liked these boots but as we do not wear them very often, 
we decided to spray paint them and see how they hold up!


If you haven't seen them before we sprayed them, 
Here is a BEFORE pic/

They look cool, don't they?

Anyway, we wanted to spray the boot all over, except the black cloth like material 
as we wanted to try to replicate the latest Limited Edition Adidas Space Craft boot.

We covered the cloth material with masking tape, which is amazing for covering they parts you want to keep away from paints, etc.
You can see this process on our YouTube channel , 
Here is the video ---->  


Please subscribe.



 

In the pictures above, you can see the boot has been completely sprayed gold 
to match the Space Craft look.



                                              Then we removed the masking tape, 
                              to find the black was completely clean and looked amazing.



Spray painting boots is NOT recommended by us, this was simply a test on fake/cheap boots to see how they would look and if they paint would actually last.
We have 2 spray painted boot videos and the majority of people have asked the same question.
"DOE'S THE PAINT COME OFF?"

To see our answer, subscribe to our YouTube channel and get notified when we post the new video.


Again, spray painting boots is not ideal. 
But it was a lot of fun! 
So if you want to try if out, watch our video to get ideas and ask an adult to help or supervise 
as it can get messy if not done right.

G-Form shin guards.

G-Form

We received these Shin Guards from G-form recently and we were extremely impressed!



Who are G-form?

G-Form have created the most protective and comfortable athletic equipment on the market.
G-Form was founded by avid athletes that shared in a common vision of using advanced polymer technology to revolutionize impact protection and vibration dampening for competition.
G-form specialize in protective wear for sports such as Soccer, Cycling, Skiing, Skate boarding and extreme sports. 
They also have a protective range for the likes of iPhone's, iPad's, Laptop's, which look very cool indeed! 



The first thing we noticed about our G-form shin guards was the cool packaging they come in. The box actually opens like a book, which is filled with interesting information.

As you can see in the picture above, G-form shin guards are:
-Washable
-Breathable
-Lightweight
-Flexible

                  

Our first impressions on these shin guards were:
- Easy to put on.
- A great fit. 
- Extremely comfortable and soft.
- Incredibly light.
- They look really cool.

We have used many shin guards over the years but these are something else!

We especially love the built in sleeve. 
Losing your shin guard sleeves is really annoying, 
and buying shin guards that don't come with sleeves is even more annoying!!!
G-form make wearing shin guards pretty easy. 
No sock tape necessary. No looking all over the house for your sleeves. 
No fixing the shin guards during games.


Normally after wearing a pair of shin guards for quite a long period of time we feel pain/discomfort.
(Especially with the 'waffle' inner part of shin guards by Nike, which we used previously)

We can honestly say, we could probably wear the G-form shin guards to bed and still have no issues.
Maybe We'll do a test video of it!  
Just kidding.


Although G-form are more expensive than your every-day shin guards, they are well worth it!
We've lost count at how many pairs of shin guards we've bought over the past few years,
and had to change due to discomfort, wear and tear or because they are hard to clean and smell horrible!

As they say, 'You get what you pay for'.

G-form Shin Guards - GWG approved!!!

To get yours, go to www.g-form.com

How to clean your boots - GWG style!


How to clean your boots - GWG style!

It's not easy to get your boots clean, 
but we show you how to get them as clean as possible,
the GWG way!

Here we have Before & After pictures of my dirty Nike Mercurial Vapors.
Look how clean they are against the dirty ones! 
That shine!!!


To see the boot cleaning video, Click the link below.
Please subscribe!

So, to get started you will need three things:
- Flash (Multi Purpose) 
- A nail brush/sponge
- Warm water

Remember to remove the laces before you begin!

Once you have these things, all you need to do is use a small amount of Flash and gently 
scrub the boot with the nail brush/sponge.
You will notice the boots start to become cleaner instantly.
This is a quick process and it leaves your boots looking almost as good as new.

Here is another example of how good the GWG boot cleaning method really is!

I got my hands on a pair of these old Vapors and I decided to give them a little scrub to see
if it makes them look any better.

BEFORE




DURING
AFTER!

I wasn't sure how these would turn out as they are very old, but I think they turned out AMAZING!
They look almost new again!

What do you think of the difference?
 


I would highly recommend trying this out,
especially if you have old boots with black marks and crusty dirt that you cannot seem remove!

 Let me know how it works for you and send your Before & After
boot pictures to girlswithgame2015@gmail.com

CHANGE IS GOOD


Hypervenom Phelon
 Customization!



You might remember these Hypervenoms from a previous post. 
I bought them for E16.80 on www.SportsDirect.co.uk and they were well worth the price.

*BUT*

I don't really like the color of them so, I decided to give them a little face-lift.

 


I'm not really into pink.  
 So I used Red dye, which you can buy online or at a local arts and crafts shop.
I also remembered to use rubber gloves this time.




It took a while for the color to spread, 
and I thought it was going to look terrible,
But after a few minutes and an extra coat, the red started to look great!


*Before & After*


I think the red looks much better!

Do you agree? 




I  started the other boot, and I thought the red looked so good,
I had to do more!!!


So I dyed the Nike Swoosh.


I loved the difference. 
Red & Black go perfectly together!


Red swoosh or White swoosh? 


FINITO!




Let me know what you think in the comments section!


I have put Red & Black Amo Customs laces on them. 
I would highly recommend @Amo_Customs laces to any footballer! 






Customizing your own boots is pretty easy, fun and CHEAP!

All you need is a cool idea and the right materials
and you can make a boot look as good as new!

You don't need to buy the best, most expensive boots to stand out. 

Be creative!
