7. Nike Tiempo

Your older brother probably had some of these, which were the first football boots Nike released. Paolo Maldini and Romario debuted them at the ’94 World Cup.

6. Adidas Predator Mania

The red and black colours of this boot will never be forgotten for a certain generation, after bursting into our conciousness at the 2002 World Cup.

5. Adidas Predator Accelerator

This boot appeared at the 1998 World Cup, worn by a pretty decent collection of stars, including Alessandro Del Piero, Zinedine Zidane and David Beckham…

4. Nike Total 90

A young Wayne Rooney headed up the later generation of this classic, which feature a memorable plastic plate to “improve your striking”.

3.  Adidas F50 Tunit

The funky boot allowed you to customise every aspect of the shoe, from the sole and the studs to the upper.

2. Puma King

The only option for someone who didn’t want to choose between Nike and Adidas. Legendarily comfortable, with a wide sole.

1. Adidas Copa Mundial

The ultimate boots, still around today. A classic design, comfortable shape, no fancy bits, and best of all – black.
