It was perfect timing in light of recent USMNT events to spur a post about soccer and my related footwear. My soccer cleats from HS/College, the old Lime Green CTR 360s, were definitely starting to show signs of fatigue. They were my go to shoes for games, practice, and everything in between so it was getting near time to replace them. I hadn't put too much thought into it but I had definitely been considering it because I know I want to play soccer when I get back to the states. After Nike announced to discontinuation of the CTR line with the Lights Out version I knew I had to get another pair before they were gone for good. They have been by far the most comfortable shoes for me and my favorite of all the soccer cleats I've worn.
The thought process was already in motion by the time Landon Donovan was cut from the men's world cup quad but that really got my mind set on getting a new pair of shoes. I know those events are not really related...ok they're not at all but I'm a fan of his playing style and any talk of soccer really reminds me how much I love the game. If you love the game you want to play the game, and if you want to play the game you need shoes. Thus is why I had to make the jump.
