The Black Boot

I played my first football game, in 1993, with the Kelme Duende model because Zubizarreta was mil idol. From that moment the football boot became a fetich for me. Umbro Speciali, Puma King, Lotto Stadio, adidas Copa Mundial, Nike Tiempo Premier, Mizuno Morelia, Joma Toledo or Diadora Brasil. My feet have worn all those legend black leather boots. But now the market has changed and I must adapt to the new technologies... And I like it! If you want my vision on the evolution of the football boots, stay tuned to "The Black Boot".
