Nomis is the brainchild of Simon Skirrow. He believes that football boot innovation has temporarily stalled, with the greater shoe market looking to lifestyle rather than performance for its inspiration.
Nomis’ goal is to create the most comfortable shoes possible for footballers, while at the same time boosting performance. And, with good design and the application of Nomis Control Technology to the boots, wearers are given increased ball contact in even the worst conditions.
In recent years the football boot market has placed a lot of emphasis on shoes being light and, whilst Simon agrees that this should be a design consideration, he cautions that it should not be the main feature, as there is a tendency for light shoes to lack the necessary heel support and midsole strength that the foot needs to support itself, which could lead to difficulties or even injury for players.
