We don't pretend to know everything there is to know about football boots (or soccer cleats, or whatever), but, since our readers asked, we got our resident expert on the case and created this video countdown of the top football boots you can buy today. These range from the most hi-tech boots money can buy to retro classics inspired by the heroes of yesterday.
We've also compiled a handy list of the boots featured in this video, along with links to where you can buy said boots (which, if you do decide to purchase a pair, we get paid a little because our rent isn't going to pay itself).
