and ruining players feet and careers with their junk. If I were Kirby, I'd let each player pick the shoes they want, then, have the staff paint the damn Nike logo on them. You'd be shocked to know how many foot issues we've had on this team over the past 3 years. Nike shoes (90% of them) have been junk for the last 10-15 years. So, many better brands.

Not disagreeing, but genuinely curious. Who makes a better foosball cleak? My son wears Nike b/c they are the most ubiquitous. I’m certainly open to better.

Nike bribes coaches and programs to use their crappy stuff.

Oh, you make a valid point...most of the competitors put a limited amount of effort into it because NIke owns the market.
The Adidas and even the UA cleats are better (high end ones)...NB also makes a better cleat.
The probably you've got with the kids is they want the Nike's because all their buds are wearing them. (I've been there).
My son finally had to stop wearing them in High school because they hurt his feet so bad. They truly are a garbage shoe.

100%...if you think about it, their gear doesn't have to be good. They are guaranteed the use of it.

That looks just like the cleats I wore in the early 70s playing high school

That looks like Tom Dempsey’s cleat.
