Historical spikes loved by heroes VOL.23 "Heroes also stuck (?) Training shoes edition"

A new Japanese national team has started. As a local citizen, I was happy and proud to see the heroes of Hiroshima playing an active role in the stadium, which is relatively in the mountains. For the national team this time, for the first time, I feel the passage of time for someone younger than myself to be the coach.

(I started spike blog.https://maradonaboots.com/It's been a habit of mine for many years, and I'm always worried about the feet of the national team members, but I don't know anything about active players' spikes.

However, I still observe the team staff's feet seriously, but I still feel the generational change.

The top photo is from the warm-up match before the tournament in Russia, but just like the players' spikes, the staff's footwear is also quite different for each person.
During training, former manager Nishino wore the Kopamun Series Mundial Team, which has been around since the 90s (probably). By the way, the director before that used Kopamun (although it didn't always seem to be the case).

The shoes (spikes) used by the current coach Moriyasu and Teguramori, who are one year older, look similar, but they are different models, and obviously later models than the Kopamun series. 

Thumb efbc91Figure 1Even with the same black and white line, everyone wears different types of models.  

I am much closer in age to Mr. Moriyasu than Mr. Nishino, but if I see the Mundial team, Copa and Patique lined up in a soccer store, I will definitely pick up the Mundial team and look at them.

I collect old soccer spikes, and while I'm pretty happy when I get something rare, my biggest frustration is that I can't actually use them (wastefully).

I don't know much about training shoes (treshoes) that I wear everyday, so I'm going to choose casually, but when I see something similar to old spikes, I can't help but buy more than I need.

At one point, there was a rumor (?) that the Mundial Team was going out of print, and around that time, a lot of limited editions appeared, and I somehow ended up buying them.

Thumb efbc92Figure 2Front 2One is the current Mundial goal (flat bottom) and the team (multi-stud). It would be a shame if the Mundial Team I was currently using was gone, so when I bought a spare one, several limited editions appeared, and I bought the other 4 on impulse.Seeds.

I felt like I was in the middle of the operation, and a light green limited edition was also released, but I didn't buy it.
  

I like Kopamun from my generation, and I don't dislike the Mundial team or goals, but it's a bit more light (?), closer to the 80's Kopamun design (episode 15 (http://king-gear.com/articles/866)) I always wondered if they weren't usually worn. 

Figure 3 is what I bought on impulse while collecting old spikes. I think SAMBA and BAMBA were sold as black and white line shoes even in the 80's, but it seems that a model similar to Kopamun's design (bottom left), which is different from the normal model, was sometimes made.

Also, the model that seems to have been released for the 25th anniversary of Kopamun (upper right) and the VOTARY that was released at the time of the 2010 World Cup are also nice.
The bottom right is an illegal copy of Ogoku, but the lines and marks are rough, and the leather seems to be of poor quality, but the sole feels very good for futsal. I don't think the original model has exactly the same specifications, but if there is such a model, I will definitely buy it.

Thumb efbc93Fig. 3 SAMBA JP (upper left), CM25 (upper right), BAMBA TR (lower left), VOTARY (lower middle). SAMBA JP is the most suitable for me in terms of design. I want black and white VOTARY, but I can't find it easily.

The lower right is the one that was about to be confiscated by customs when I bought it. I managed to get it by writing a petition to Adidas on the condition that it was not used.It seems that the original color colorful version of the Mundial team and the Russian competition referee version are already sold online,I think it's probably something like this.


Fig. 4 (bottom right), made in Korea KiKA, is also quite similar to Kopamun. Previously, I introduced a little Korean spike called Prowell Kick (episode 8 (http://king-gear.com/articles/779), which was advertised in a Japanese soccer magazine in the 80's and was available for purchase.
 

It seems that KiKA still manufactures and sells soccer equipment, but in the 1980s I had only seen shoes worn by Korean national team players.

Figure 4 left shows Park Chang-sun wearing KiKA spikes in the legendary Japan-Korea match (national) in 1985.I'm sorry to digress, but Mizunuma, who was usually an Adidas user, wore the Para Mexico that debuted in this match (episode 7 (http://king-gear.com/articles/774)), was treated as a lackluster war criminal (Fig. Didn't the puma still fit? I would love to hear from you. 

Thumb efbc94Figure 4The captains of Japan and South Korea before the match (left). Hisashi Kato made his Asics look like a Puma (4Story(http://king-gear.com/articles/753), Captain Spike was also a Japan-Korea confrontation.

In those days, even referees sometimes wore Puma (other than Adidas) spikes. KiKA in the bottom right
It is unknown when the tri shoe was manufactured, but it seems to be quite old and the sole is hardened.
  

By the way, it seems that referees have always had spikes and Trechus, and there were quite a few who wore the Mundial team at this year's World Cup (Figure 5, left).

I touched on the referee's spike a little earlier (episode 12 (http://king-gear.com/articles/836)), when it comes to World Cup referees, even in the 1980s, I think spikes were wearing the top models of that time. 

On the other hand, the model that was popular among the old Tricheux referees was the type that screwed three colors of pins into the sole, and it was a model similar to the LA trainer that has been reprinted in recent years.

Thumb efbc95Figure 5 World Cup referees. From left to right: 2018, 1982 and 1986. In the photo of 82, the referee is Spike and the assistant referee (line referee these days) is Treshu.

In the opening match against Belgium, Passarella (No. 15) wore Puma's white tongue model only for this match. However, perhaps because he lost, from the next match he changed to the black shoe tongue model he wore in the previous tournament where he won the championship (here (http://king-gear.com/articles/89
) has a photo).
Conti in the picture in 1986 is a Puma, but I think it's a rare model with a black sole.   

In Fig. 5, the shoes used by both World Cup referees in 1982 and 1986 were the lower left model in Fig. 6 and were very expensive. When I was in high school, most of the spikes were black with white lines, but I don't think many young people wore the same color as their shoes.

At the time, I admired that all the strong high school teams were wearing matching colorful shoes, and I remember buying the Liver Plate in Fig. 6 by mail order when it was on sale.

Thumb efbc96Figure 6 80An example of a tray from the first half of the 1970s. I think it was more like a fashion item for soccer club members to go to school or on road trips than for serious training purposes. I couldn't wear shoes like this in the baseball club. 

At that time, Teikyo High School's soccer club member Tresieux was cool and imitated the loosely threaded string that he used as a stopper instead of tying it (figure 8).
It feels like a training session).
  

Like sneakers, many of the old Treshoes have deteriorated soles and cannot be worn, and some manufacturers still sell classic types, so I didn't dare to buy old ones, but West Germany. I made an impulse purchase of BOCA (upper right of Fig. 7).

It seems that MEXICO IT and TT, like the modern version of BOCA, were also sold in recent years, but it is a pity that they are out of print now.

 ITis personally useful in futsal, and I feel the need for spares, but I can't find it easily, so I'd like you to resell it.  

Lastly, there is the topic of Kami. In recent soccer events, Puma's current model is often played, but the photo on the left in Fig. 8 shows Kami wearing Asics shoes, which is rare (1998).

Mizuno has also used spikes, so it seems that Treshoes have also been worn, but I have only seen Asics at this time.

Thumb efbc98Figure 8Treshoe (bottom right) that came with the previously purchased spikes as a bonus. It's been used quite a bit, but the old model seems to be a valuable item now.

Perhaps the previous owner was of the same generation, and the way he tied the string was the same as mine. It seems to be a model that God also used and I would like to cherish it.
  

Next time, I will write about Japanese spikes loved by God in the flow of the story from this time.
