text: Bought these for my 10 year old boy's 3rd season of tackle football.  He loves them.  He says they are very light and very comfortable.  He says this adds to his ability to run fast and maneuver quickly.  The price is a bit steep - especially for a growing boy who will only get one season's use out of them but, he loves that the colors match his uniform, the ankle support helps him quick cut down the field and the lightweight shoe makes him lightening quick.
