What's New
Right now, as you are reading this, in Everett, there are literally hundreds (if not thousands) of soccer cleats sitting in the back of closets (your closet, quite possibly) and the only thing wrong with them is that they are too small for the players who own them.
Soon, hundreds of players (your player, quite possibly) will need new cleats, either because the cleats they already own are too small, or they are new to soccer and have never had cleats.
We have a plan.
Get those cleats out of the closets, get them to players who can wear them, and get free cleats for ourselves.

Frequently Asked Questions (as imagined by us)
Q: Aren’t new cleats better?
A: Only if you like blisters. Seriously though, most cleats get used for one season, on grass, and then set aside because they’ve become too small for next year. One season of practice and games: 1 hour, 2 times a week for 16 weeks plus 10 games = 42 hours.Q: Aren’t old cleats worn out?
A: Some are, and those get thrown away, but most look like they have barely been worn.Q: Aren’t old cleats yucky?
A: No yuckier than new cleats will be in 3 weeks.Q: What if I just want cleats and don’t have cleats to give?
A: Great, free cleats for you.Q: What if I just have cleats to give and don’t need cleats?
