“My grandad would always tell me I must wear black boots. I remember there was a time where you could customise your own boots and my grandparents bought me this pair of customised plain black boots and even the logos were blacked out.”
We’re definitely part of the black boots brigade here at Planet Football, but like Ellis Platten, we think his grandad might have gone a bit far with this one.
“I was like, ‘Why have you done this and spent money on it?!’” he says. “I remember that quite fondly. We had long-sleeved tops and I was told I had to roll my sleeves up as well.”
