Unquestionably Puma King. I also had Adidas Copa Mundials but they were horrid in comparison.
Never had shin guards in the 60's used to tape national geographic magazines under our socks when we played the Irish cloggers from Fishtown. Wore Keegan's till college and switched to Adidas, never left.Timpson toeblammers

I like little stories like this. I loved my football boots and still look at them when I’m at the Adidas factory shop. Always tempted to buy myself some just because.My dad said if I scored a goal playing for the school team he’d buy me a new pair of boots. I got a hattrick and he kept his promise. I got a pair of Adidas Beckenbauer. I felt like a pro putting them on and I cleaned them religiously and with pride after each game. They were the dogs! Looking back at my life now I can safely say that these boots were probably the fondest item of clothing I have ever owned. They bring back so many happy memories of my love of football as a kid and, of course, of my father who instilled it all in me.
