V1.08-soccer boots

Two teenage brothers may have to quit football, because their feet are too big.

Big football boots A 13 and 14 year old from South Yorkshire may have to curtail their potential of professional football as their feet are too big.

Centre half Aynsley (14) and goalkeeper Asher (13), both play for Rotherham Boys Under 15’s and want to turn professional. However their future in the game is in doubt because they cannot buy football boots big enough for their feet.

Aynsley, who is 6′ 3″, currently wears size 14’s, but his 8 month old football boots are falling apart. Asher, who is 6′ wear size 13, but his football boots are now too tight.

The boys’ parents have been searching for large sized football boots, but without success. They have been told that UK manufacturers only make football boots up to size 13. Such was their desperation, they contacted Liverpool FC, to find out where Peter Crouch buys his football boots.

The result was not the news they were looking for either, as Crouch receives specially made football boots and a special order for his Puma V1.06 football boots would cost £189.99, at least £90 more than the regular price for these football boots.

You boys aren’t the only ones looking for big boots. Since I was a teenager I had big feet, the largest size I could find were 13 and that was the limit.
Ive tried so many different ways of finding size 15 boots, but still with no luck.

I’m currently in China and have tried a lot of top brand names, like Nike and Adidas but they mainly export the boots, and they don’t want to make a size 15 pair of boots. They quoted me like 670 pounds for one pair, and it was just an estimate.
I remember Nwankwo Kanu had size 15 feet as well, and he wore Nike boots.

If anyone has any luck, please post a comment.
Good luck
Alex

Adidas offer Mi-adidas boots which are customised and do go to longer and wider lengths then traditional sizes. You can choose colours and styles as well. Costs around $360 (Australian).

I feel for you guys too.
Since i’ve always had big feet and been around 6′5″ since i was 13 and my feet were a size 14-15 from 14 years old.
I’m also from Rotherham and was playing in adult leagues from the age of 13 as i wanted to player a higher level than with my own age groups.

Unfortunately I had to give up on football and then ice hockey as a career due injuries and then my feet growing over size 15 when i tried to make a come-back in 2000.
If you think football boots are expensive to get oversized, try $22,000+ canadian for a pair of goalie skates due to the one off protection moulding lol.

I’d suggest getting hold of Portsmouth FC and trying to get a pair of Kanu’s pro returns or even if they’d accomodate ordering a pair of his boots for your purchase. Some teams are very willing to help players.
I’m surprised Liverpool FC didn’t offer something similar.

When i had trials i was lucky enough to get a pair of Nike size 14 3/4 boots moulded to my feet for free through a contact as stock sizes weren’t an option.

I bought some size 14 soft ground boots from http://www.ebay.co.uk (£50 including postage) and there were some more for sale last time i checked. i bough my size 14 indoor boots from http://www.fdsports.com (based in skegness, £35 including postage) but they seemed to be running out of stock a couple of months ago. i have been told that http://www.sportsshoes.com (based in bradford) may have some larger sizes after xmas - jjb have plenty of stock of upto size 13 but its size 14 and above that is difficult to find.

I am 16 years old, 6′8″ tall, size 14 feet and proud.

http://www.walktall.co.uk is a good site for large size shoes and trainers and I recently saw a very nice pair of size 14 Nike Air Zoom Total 90 Supremacy FG Football Boots on http://www.teamsportswear.co.uk.

Adidas seem to have the Adidas Copa Mundial Moulded Football boot up to size 15. They have it at

http://www.sportsshoes.com/product/?product_code=ADI588

Finding some astro boots in that size would be a miracle.

I’m 6″3 with size 14 feet. I also tried using rugby boots but found that every time I tried to shoot, the ball would fly about fifty feet up in the air(perhaps my fault). However, after some more use they actually moulded to my feet fairly well and played like football boots. I would advise getting Mizuno rugby boots if you have to resort to this as they tend to be more like the football boots and the studs can be easily changed. I also used fdsports.com but their range seems to be getting smaller. Brantano is often a great place for buying football boots up to size 14 but they currently appear to have no large sizes in stock, although the likelihood is that this is due to the season coming to a close. If anyone else knows of any other good sites for buying football boots then it would be appreciated.

Alec said: Comment 13 October, 2007 @ 6:46 pm

I’m having so much trouble. I love football, live and breathe it. I’m only 13 and my feet are size 12 and still growing, I know my case isn’t as bad as anyone else here, but my feet are still growing pretty rapidly. I don’t know what to do. I don’t want to pay too much on boots as I’ll probably grow out of the soon. Help!

Ever since I was 12 I struggled with this and couldn’t find rugby boots for my size 15’s. I am now 18, 6ft 9 and wear size 18. I sympathise.
