About us

Rare football boots, from Brisbane

The Boot Connection is Brody and Ethan — two Brisbane locals who love football and football boots. We find rare and hard-to-get boots secondhand, take on the risk of buying them, and make sure every pair is right before it reaches you.

Why we started

Football boots keep getting more expensive, and a lot of the pairs people really want — discontinued classics, player editions, Made in Japan builds — aren't sold new in Australia at all. Secondhand is where the value is, but buying secondhand is a gamble: fakes, hidden damage, and photos that don't match the boot that turns up.

We saw a better way to do it. We take that risk on ourselves, so you don't have to.

What happens to every pair

We buy the boots, inspect every pair in person, and deal with whatever we find. Boots that come in dirty get cleaned; boots that come in with problems get fixed and repaired. Only then do they go on the site, graded honestly against our condition guide and photographed as the exact pair you'll receive, with full size and surface detail.

Rare boots, Australia-wide

The rarest pairs we find go into our Grails collection, and we specialise in Mizuno Made in Japan boots — verified MIJ Morelias and Alphas without the cost and risk of importing them yourself. Everything we've sold is in the sold archive, and everything in stock is in the shop. Orders ship free anywhere in Australia, with international shipping available.
