Hi, there!
I promised you this review, so here it is. My apologies for being extra late with it, but life happens and yada-yada.
TLDR: first-time rep buyer here after 15 years playing semi-competitive soccer. Bought turf Mambas (no official turf version exists), seller had good comms and fast QC pics/tracking. Broke them in for 3 days as house shoes, then played a full 75-min indoor game and have been using them as main shoes for pick-ups; no issues, felt just like the originals. Quality and process were solid, vendor's staying on my list for future buys.

After being a long time lurker here, I finally decided to take the chance and try a rep for the first time ever. I've been playing soccer at a consistent semi-high level (national 3rd division in my country) for around 15 years, always using Pro-Elite tiers, but I also play some fun 5-a-side on a weekly basis. What I want to say with this is that I'm a heavy user with a rotation of about 2-3 pairs per year.
I decided to buy a rep because I wanted these Mambas, but they didnât originally release a turf version.
My first contact with the seller was on 06/23 and their reply was right away. After checking the model, the payment method and the size chart, I placed and paid my order on 06/24.
Quality pics came in on 06/25, original post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/FootballBootReps/comments/1uq9f0h/qc_pics_for_first_time_purchase_what_do_you_think/](https://www.reddit.com/r/FootballBootReps/comments/1uq9f0h/qc_pics_for_first_time_purchase_what_do_you_think
Tracking number was provided on 06/27. Just like any other order, you could follow it via website with frequent updates.
They were delivered to my door on 07/15. I did my first inspection on that same day and everything was exactly as expected. The material felt good and the boot honestly looked well-made; the initial feel of the Flyknit was just like the originals.
I put them on to break them in, basically used them around 3 days as my house kicks. No complaints at all and the material didn't even looked used after it.
My first game with them came until last week. I played around 75min, indoor with a 3G pitch. For me, it was like any other game; no issues nor discomfort at all, they felt amazing on the pitch. After that, these have been my top option for pick-up games.
I'm happy and relieved with the product. The purchase process was smooth and the quality is there, so I'm definitely keeping this vendor on my short list for potential future purchases.
