The most popular soft-ground boot in the history of the world. While innovations come and go, millions of players world-wide insist on wearing only this soft-ground incarnation of the classic “Copa.” Not a stitch of World Cup has been altered for more than 20 years. The design of this boot gets everything right. Softness, comfort, stability, touch. Rich, supple, supersoft kangaroo leather upper gives durability with low weight and a glove-like feel. K leather tongue with gently padded synthetic underlining. Synthetic lining through the midfoot and forefoot, with the leather wrapping into the ankle to minimize slip. Expansive internal heel counter comes high on the heel and far forward toward the midfoot. No-frills EVA insole over a synthetic fiberboard last cushions the sole. Direct-injected TPU soleplate with screw-in aluminum-tipped studs in the most traditional replaceable configuration is cemented to the midsole. “Glove-like” is a term perhaps overused—World Cups feel more like bedroom slippers with studs. They famously stretch as they break in to accommodate the feet of their wearer, so buy them snug. Such soft leather responds well to being cared for—leather treatments better maintain original softness, caked-on dirt will foreshorten its life span, and after you’ve played in the wet stuff these boots with newspaper or another absorbent material to dry them from the inside out. Made in Germany.

@Alicia, They do come with studs but it looks to be the ones with metal tips which you cant use in school or rec soccer. You may have to order replacement nylon tipped ones. These are the best soft ground boots of all time and you wont regret it. Not sure of yer age but I would be sure yer feet are done growing, you only wanna buy these once. Mine lasted 15 yrs of hard use and good care. @Tim, yes they should have a stud wrench with them, if not when you buy replacements they will have a wrench with them.

These boots arrived promptly but with no studs to screw in. I had a championship match that weekend. It was a bit of handling then having to travel to a shop and picking a pair so I had a pair for the match. Then of course I had to visit a courier shop to post this pair back. Very disappointing.

I recently bought this shoe and wore it for about 2 months thinking that they will get better the longer i wear them. I was wrong. These boots gave my huge blisters on both feet on the inside of my heel. I then thought well maybe i got them too small, so i bought another pair and they did not improve. This boot is for a very narrow foot. That was probably part of my problem. If your looking for a studded cleat with about the same amount of comfort i would try the f50's.
The latest trend in shoes seems to be lacquered plastic that costs $200. Don't be fooled. These are simply the best studs on the market. The concern about narrowness is valid, but one needs to realize that these shoes will conform after the break-in period. Unless you play on uncut grass in the northwest, you probably don't need these. Molded shoes will work fine on any reasonable field. These are a luxury item. Durability is very good for a 'roo shoe, and you'll look like Ruminegge on the pitch. But will you play like him?
I bought the world cups last fall and i have loved them ever since. though they were useless during the indoor season, we had alot of rain this spring so i got to use them a ton. I have very narrow feet so they conformed to my foot well but if you have wider feet these probably aren't for you. I'm a goalkeeper so i dont get alot of touches on the ball but you can get a pretty good strike zone (and believe me i do alot of long ball striking)if you tie the tounge down or use rubber bands, not sweetspots because i personally think that they make cleats look rediculous. The studs stay in very well as long as you use them on soft ground only. I once forgot my firm ground studs and we played on a hard field and one of the heel studs fell out but thats really just a freak ... MoreI bought the world cups last fall and i have loved them ever since. though they were useless during the indoor season, we had alot of rain this spring so i got to use them a ton.

I once forgot my firm ground studs and we played on a hard field and one of the heel studs fell out but thats really just a freak coincidence. just keep the studs tight and they'll never fall out. Overall a very comfortable cleat, once broken in which doesn't take long, for narrow feet. So if u want a nice affordable pair of SG studs Buy the World Cups
I bought these as I was looking for a pair of metal studs to this weather. As I have small feet was struggling to find a design I liked that didn’t look too much like children’s. Or I was finding fabric ones that didn’t look very waterproof. Initially they were very tight on my feet and made them sore but I’ve realised the leather just needed wearing in and they feel really good on my feet. Good quality pair.
These cleats are the best cleats that I have ever worn. They have durable studs unless you use them on hard ground or firm ground. I recommend these as the best SG cleats in the world. I believe that they live up to their price. I have owned a pair of these cleats for 5 years straight. I have had the same pair for 3 years they stretch well so if you are worried don't be because they don't rip easily. I highly recommend these to anybody interested in buying SG cleats.
I have been wearing these world cups since 1980 I believe the cups came out in 1978. I have owned 3 pairs of these and they last a good long while. You will not find a boot with a more solid feel when shooting or passing. Be careful wearing these on hard ground the traction is too much and you might tear a ligament. I do wish they made the studs in smaller sizes so I could wear them on every field. They do cause blisters in the beggining of the break in but man it's worth it. Good luck!
agreed, these are not for the fat of foot. they do expand a bit but odering longer does not expand the width much. when fitting, a little snug is about right. too tight or too long--find another boot. now, the good part...if you fit this boot, you'd want to change the sole and wear it as a dress shoe. this is the most comfortable shoe i own. (providing i'm standing on soft pitch). i've been playing quite a time at good non-pro club teams and have tried many modern designs and gimicky boots, but here it is... if you have some skills and know how to play the game, here's your boot. its reasonable in price, much more durable than other k-leather boots and has a touch more sensetive than the thinest latex condem. this is a boot for the mud and the blood and the beer. if ... Moreagreed, these are not for the fat of foot. they do expand a bit but odering longer does not expand the width much. when fitting, a little snug is about right. too tight or too long--find another boot. now, the good part...if you fit this boot, you'd want to change the sole and wear it as a dress shoe. this is the most comfortable shoe i own.
