For those of you who play soccer competitively, what cleats do you wear? Which are the best? I'm not sure if this is the right section to post in but since there is no general soccer forum to post in I'll just put it here. I wear total 90 IIIs.

I love football too but I'm much better at soccer. I grew up playing it and I will always play it. Plus I don't need help with my cleat size. If your post has nothing to do with what I'm talking about please do not post.

I think the answer to your question depends upon where you play on the pitch. If you're a forward then you'd want to wear something very lite like those Nike Vapors that Henri wears. I heard they don't last long though.
I was a defender and wore adidas. I think adidas makes a higher quality product than Nike anyway. I wore every incarnation of the Predator. There is a new adidas shoe that you can change to fit soft, firm, or hard ground conditions. If I was still playing, I'd go with that to save money and space in my bag when traveling (that is if you're playing club ball).
Go to soccer.com and look at what they have.

I've always worn adidas. I'm a goalkeeper, so I never felt the need to get hi-tech boots. Copa Mundials are my favorite--they're classics, they're comfortable, and they last forever.

I usually stick with Adidas. I wore Pumas for one season, they had the best traction of any shoes I ever wore, but they were so uncomfortable it was ridiculous. A couple years of club we had to have the same shoes, and we had Nikes. Poor Traction, were too narrow, and wore out really fast. I found Adidas usually makes the best compromise of comfort, traction, and durability.
I have been out of playing for quite a while now, but I still have my old Adidas cleats, they are still going strong.
