90min have looked at the 30 greatest football boots of all time

Like everything in football, boots have evolved hugely in a short space of time.

Twenty years ago, you’d do well to find a boot any other colour than black.

These days, you’d do well to find a black boot.

And then there’s the price.

For top of the range, you’ll be paying in excess of £200 easily. After all, nobody wants to be caught wearing fake boots.

Of course, professional footballers don’t need to worry about the price of boots.

They all sign lucrative sponsorship deals and are given an unlimited supply of boots throughout the course of the season.

But what are the best boots in football ever?

Of course, it’s a case of ‘horses for courses.’

A centre-back isn’t going to be seen wearing a Mercurial Vapor - or at least they shouldn’t be.

Whereas a speedy winger wearing Copa Mundials just doesn’t make sense.

But 90min have attempted to be neutral and ranked the 30 greatest boots in football history.
