Sat, 5 Aug 2000 06:11:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tom - After nine years of rowing, I testify that the sore-no-more is the best investment you will make as a rower. Unis will come and go throughout seasons, your hands will grow raw and then calloused, but a sore-no-more seat pad will last you a lifetime...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tom - I'm not a soccer player, and I certainly don't know indoor soccer, but what I can tell you is that the Adidas Samba indoor soccer shoes are an excellent choice for comfy, affordable, casual shoes.
