Buty Reymana (English)

Z Historia Wisły

Legendary boots of Henryk Reyman. He took care of them in an exceptional manner, treating them as a talisman that brought him luck. He would inspect them before every match and maintain them after each game, not entirely trusting the team's dressing room attendants. He was well aware that good boots had a significant impact on the power and quality of his shots; shots that made the best goalkeepers in Poland and beyond tremble. It's no wonder he played in those boots continuously for 11 years and reluctantly reached for new ones.

In those boots, he scored the winning goal against Lviv's Sparta in the final minute of the Polish Cup final in 1926. In those boots, he outplayed the strongest Polish league teams, year after year, clinching the title of Polish champion and adding to those championships the accolades of the top scorer in the Polish league in 1927 and 1928.

In Poland, there were no players who did not regard Reyman with respect, both as a footballer and an officer in the Polish Army. Observing Reyman's boots, there is no doubt that they must have commanded respect among his opponents on the field. A clash with a foot clad in those boots was certainly no pleasure. It is worth noting that Reyman did not shy away from the tough, masculine battle on the field, utilizing every football accessory available to him.
