Boots that are knitted Saint,

Visions of grannies being bundled in to vans to work in sweat shops....

I could work that one out from the thread title.
I just thought it might be some pun or something, but I've seen the picture now.

They'd be crap in the wet.
 
Trying to make the idea manly: all dark and broody as he plays that string game yer sister played when you were wee....

They look like something my mum might have made when we were poor.

"I've knitted you some football boots son"

"Awwwhhh mum, the other kids will laugh"

"They're the same thing son, I even put those stripey things on the side!"

How is that going to work on the pre-soaked fields?
 
All sorts of foot and ankle injuries nowadays that didn't happen often when men wore great honking stiff pieces of heavy leather on their feet.

Performance vs safety. Wonder how knit boots will affect this balance.

Of course not, injuries weren't as detailed. All foot injuries were "dodgy ankles" <laugh>

I remember when men's balls were bigger and more leathery too.
