WHERE OUR IDEA CAME FROM
We are a bunch of guys who are first of all, fans of football (or soccer), all born in the era of technology and gaming. We all "met" at a forum called Evo-Web, a british gaming forum, one if not the biggest forum of football gaming around the web.
In this forum, specifically at the The Boots Thread, is where all this idea was conceived between a few guys. At this thread, we would list the boots, not mattering if it was from a big or small brand, and which players have been spotted using this boot. Updating this list was something manual and sometimes tiring.
That's when a few of the guys thought about having a boot usage database, automatizing all this process. We started creating everything after the 2014 World Cup, but our lead developer had a full time job and an university to finish. He is the lead developer because he is the only developer we have...
Sorry for the delay, guys
