I always go to the store and I try these boots on but I never end up trying them on because for me, they are very difficult to put on. I also use the spoon thing to supposedly put them on easier but that's not the case. Josh, are the boots just not for me? Please help
Puncake095 Yeah I agree technique is very important I was just asking because I was wondering if I can add more of a curve effect or knuckle ball effect on my shot
Hernan Jabulani would be ideal:it is unstable in air anc relatively cheap nowadays(I mean used ones,unboxed Jabulani is hella expensive).Knuckle and spin is very different from each other so you can't have both there.For spin,you should look for ball with high number of panels,like Select balls.For knuckles,you want to have smooth,as few seams as possible and light,extreme example being the beach ball.
I have a wide foot. Not too wide but I wear 9 UK sized studs where as my actual foot size is 8.5UK. So do you think it'll fit my foot comfortably if I buy a pair of 9UK sized of these soccer shoes??
Josh I need your help, long story short I don't have a lot of cushion in my knees anymore and the magista turf soccer shoes are not cutting it after games. I am in pain. can u suggest a training shoe I can play soccer in or a turf shoe that has more cushion than the lunarlon magista turf ? please and thank you
Nothing is going to be that heavily cushioned and also stable and offer a decent touch on the ball. Anything that is really heavily cushioned will be on the bulkier side. The best thing you can do is to go to a local sports store and try on some training shoes to see if anything feels dramatically better than what you're currently wearing. If your knees are hurting that much, I'm not sure that changing your shoes is going to make that significant of a difference.
If you want a starting boot, I think you should start with this. But if you want to get even better and go pro then you should definitely get a new boot.
Hello josh! I bought these shoes after watching ur review. I’ve had som big problem breaking into them.... especially in the toe area. I’ve used the 3-4 times already and after every session my big toe feels absolutely knackered after wearing them for an hour or more. Do you have any advices on what i can do to prevent this from happening?
Josh what boot gives the most unique knitted upper / feel or is the better buy in your opinion? The ace 17.1 primeknit, ace 16.1 primeknit, ace 15.1 primeknit or the x 15 primeknit
Hey Josh, I'm looking to buy cleats for this summer. I play on the turf that is very short with the rubber pellets. I'm having a tough time deciding between turf shoes and artificial grass. any suggestions?
I'm not 100% sure how the soleplate is on the AG model. It doesn't look to be the same. I don't have any personal experience with them, so I can't really comment on them.
Vapor and Superfly are the way forward for me, only seem to be getting better as the models progress, especially the sole plate this year is just brilliant for the feet.
I did not say that. They were featured in my Top 5 overrated video, not underrated. I do think they're better than the 17+, I said that in this video as well, but that doesn't change the fact that I think these are overrated boots. I explain in the video.
I play left back for a small club and I am looking for new boots and I really like the fit of the hypervenom 3 DF but it is marketed towards strikers Is it still ok it I get them
MV7 the phatal 3 is not a bad takedown model at all. with the upper it has it can pass as a top end model. the upper is really soft. not as soft as the Flyknit but soft enough where you get a decent feel for the ball and the flywire cables help make the boot more responsive. the collar is a personal choice. it might feel a bit different for a bit but you won't notice it once you play in them.
hey josh...can u plzzz tell me which boot should i buy from these three below 1. adidas ace 17.1 primeknit 2. adidas x 16.1 3. puma evopower vigor 1 plzzzz do reply thankxxx
My personal favorite boot from Adidas right now is the Purespeed. Your position has nothing to do with what boots you should wear. Watch this video, it will explain some things you should know th-cam.com/video/EMnhKcyKCvs/w-d-xo.html
Hey josh Great video like always but I think the boot is not overrated in my opinion. I bought them for me and when i wear them i feel extrem comfortable. Of course 200€ is a lot of money, but in my opinion it is one of the best boots on the market right now in terms of shooting passing and ball control.
They're not bad shoes, and I'm not surprised that you like them. I think most people who did buy these like them. What I'm saying, is that in comparison to everything else, mainly shoes that feature similar elements, I don't think the ACE 17.1 is as good as some of the competition. If you've only worn these, you'll most likely be happy with them, but if you've worn everything in this category, most people would not pick these.
At adidas.be the ace costs 17.1 around € 250 and the ace 17.2 costs around 130. The 17.2 is the next version of the 17.1 right? Why does the 17.1 cost more?
the phantom 1 is a softer upper but it's not the most durable shoe while the Phelon 3 which I wear at the moment is a good quality upper that's a mesh base material and is a bit more durable. the lockdown on the phantom 1 isn't the greatest either while the Phelon 3 has a decent amount of lockdown
I know legend 7 is a fabulous boot but I love Ace's design and it fits to my toe when I first wore this at market;; Do you think this is not a good product enough to buy?
Soccer Reviews For You first of all I appreciate you responding to my post, but I still believe that you are more critical about adidas products than you are about Nike's.
Hey Josh. I've seen Bendtner in some blackout boots in training and matches (i've only seen him in them for one match). The boots doesn't look like regular superfly 5's either. I said this last video aswell
Luis Orozco I have these shoes and I like everything about them. Don't worry about these reviews. If the cleats fit your feet I'm sure u will like them
If you like them, that's what matters here. Like I said in the video, I don't think these are bad shoes, but in comparison to other mid-cut, knitted boots, I don't think these are as good as the other options available in terms of the experience they offer.
is there any boots that are very slim but also have good protection on the toebox?
finn2214 the new tiempos are a mix between fly knit and leather
Reid Pavlov I don't think there that narrow though
tiempo
finn2214 Tiempos
Umbro UX Accuro
I always go to the store and I try these boots on but I never end up trying them on because for me, they are very difficult to put on. I also use the spoon thing to supposedly put them on easier but that's not the case. Josh, are the boots just not for me? Please help
DudeGamer "spoon thing"
DudeGamer Nope. If you can't get them on, don't make the purchase.
They're not that hard to put on. Are you loosening the laces enough?
Soccer Reviews For You Only like the first 2 laces from the top
Please tell me about the inner sole. Why is it really hard at the heel area. I can even knock knock the shoes at the inside heel area.
Low-cut squad?
could you please do a vid like top 5 turf boots?
for some reason when I tie these boots up they bulge underneath the laces. Why is this
Are they too big?
Soccer Reviews For You no if I go any smaller they will hurt my toes
Hey Josh are certain balls better for shooting knuckle balls or curve shot or does it not matter??
Puncake095 Yeah I agree technique is very important I was just asking because I was wondering if I can add more of a curve effect or knuckle ball effect on my shot
Goalkeeper Reviews thanks for the suggestion I'll take a look at those options
Hernan Jabulani would be ideal:it is unstable in air anc relatively cheap nowadays(I mean used ones,unboxed Jabulani is hella expensive).Knuckle and spin is very different from each other so you can't have both there.For spin,you should look for ball with high number of panels,like Select balls.For knuckles,you want to have smooth,as few seams as possible and light,extreme example being the beach ball.
Croatia Gaming HD okay this information is very useful thank you
Hernan No problem
I have those cleats and personally I love them
Yup I have these too and they are fantastic. Had them for 4 years now
Would you say that applies to the ace 16 primeknit also about it being overrated and if so, why or why not?
I didn't love everything about the ACE 16.1 Primeknit, but I do prefer it over the Ace 17.1.
which one i should buy
new balance furon 2.0 or Adidas ace 17.1 ?
Are these more padded than the Nike magista obra 2? Also is the ball feel better on the obra 2? Thanks and your reviews are great and honest
The touch on the ball of the Obra 2 is significantly better in my opinion.
I don't know want shoes to get I have a average foot should I get the purecontral or superfly five?
The I think the Superfly is a much better fitting shoe.
I have a wide foot. Not too wide but I wear 9 UK sized studs where as my actual foot size is 8.5UK. So do you think it'll fit my foot comfortably if I buy a pair of 9UK sized of these soccer shoes??
These aren't particularly wide. Based on that info, I'm not sure if they'd fit you comfortably.
Soccer Reviews For You. --- so if I buy a 10size studs will that be close to perfect???
Josh I need your help, long story short I don't have a lot of cushion in my knees anymore and the magista turf soccer shoes are not cutting it after games. I am in pain. can u suggest a training shoe I can play soccer in or a turf shoe that has more cushion than the lunarlon magista turf ? please and thank you
Nothing is going to be that heavily cushioned and also stable and offer a decent touch on the ball. Anything that is really heavily cushioned will be on the bulkier side. The best thing you can do is to go to a local sports store and try on some training shoes to see if anything feels dramatically better than what you're currently wearing. If your knees are hurting that much, I'm not sure that changing your shoes is going to make that significant of a difference.
I'm using the Ace Tango 17.1 Turf shoes, they have boost foam in the heal and are definitely more cushioning than the Lunarlon soles that I've tried.
for any ace 17+, do the Colour fell tight if u have a skinny ankle 🤔
It's not a tight fitting collar.
ok ok
If you want a starting boot, I think you should start with this. But if you want to get even better and go pro then you should definitely get a new boot.
Mid-cut squad, where you at? 😀
Tino Čomić here
Ehhh I don’t really like the sock but I really like the look especially with the superfly 6 elite and the obra 2
Hello josh! I bought these shoes after watching ur review. I’ve had som big problem breaking into them.... especially in the toe area. I’ve used the 3-4 times already and after every session my big toe feels absolutely knackered after wearing them for an hour or more. Do you have any advices on what i can do to prevent this from happening?
Do they feel too small? Are they not wide enough? I need a few more details to figure out what issues you're having.
They feel too small however I took my normal size
Hey josh I have wide feet because I am flat footed what boots should I pick up I am having trouble finding a good boot
Something with a leather upper would likely be more comfortable for you.
What is the size of the this shoe
Josh what boot gives the most unique knitted upper / feel or is the better buy in your opinion? The ace 17.1 primeknit, ace 16.1 primeknit, ace 15.1 primeknit or the x 15 primeknit
I think the X 15 Primeknit was the best Primeknit boot Adidas ever put out.
Soccer Reviews For You okay thanks!
How does sizing compare from Magista II to X17+? I had magistas but want to get the new Confed cup pack for the X17.
I wear a size 9.5US in Magistas and a size 9US In the X 17.
Soccer Reviews For You thank you.
Great content. Keep it up!
one question josh : can I use fg boots on hg ( 16+ purechaos )
Generally, yes.
Hey Josh, I'm looking to buy cleats for this summer. I play on the turf that is very short with the rubber pellets. I'm having a tough time deciding between turf shoes and artificial grass. any suggestions?
I would go for AG.
Thank you!
hey josh a query-which is better nemeziz 17.1 or ace 17.1
I prefer the Nemeziz.
Josh could you please recommend me a good quality turf boot
It all depends on what type of fit and feel that you're looking for.
not looking for any particular fit or feel I would just like to know what you would recommend a good turf boot
_ Jacob__ you got aired
Josh, do you think the studs on these will wear(if thats the right word) down quick?
Goalkeeper Reviews thanks
Your Average Commenter and thank u as well
They shouldn't.
Can you please make a new video of the 17.3fg boot
Hi Josh,
Is the Gradual Stability Frame on the sole of the Puma Vigor 1 only present in the FG variant? Will the AG variant have the GSF too?
Thanks
I'm not 100% sure how the soleplate is on the AG model. It doesn't look to be the same. I don't have any personal experience with them, so I can't really comment on them.
Vapor and Superfly are the way forward for me, only seem to be getting better as the models progress, especially the sole plate this year is just brilliant for the feet.
Last month you said these were underrated and better than the 17+
I did not say that. They were featured in my Top 5 overrated video, not underrated. I do think they're better than the 17+, I said that in this video as well, but that doesn't change the fact that I think these are overrated boots. I explain in the video.
josh i love your videos but i have a question for you do you prefer the ace 16.1 or 17.1?
I prefer the ACE 16.1.
I play left back for a small club and I am looking for new boots and I really like the fit of the hypervenom 3 DF but it is marketed towards strikers
Is it still ok it I get them
you can wear any boot you want as long as there comfortable
Christian Gomez thanks
Of course it's OK. Watch this video, it will explain some things you should know th-cam.com/video/EMnhKcyKCvs/w-d-xo.html
josh should I go for the mercurial victory df, 17.3 purespeed, 17.2 primemesh, or hypervenom phatal 3 df?
MV7 1.primemesh of phatal 3, but get regular not df
Your Average Commenter not true, in my experience low ends last just as long, just don't feel as good
MV7 the phatal 3 is not a bad takedown model at all. with the upper it has it can pass as a top end model. the upper is really soft. not as soft as the Flyknit but soft enough where you get a decent feel for the ball and the flywire cables help make the boot more responsive. the collar is a personal choice. it might feel a bit different for a bit but you won't notice it once you play in them.
JustFootball Kings thanks I will go for the pharaoh 3 df
*Phatal
Is the fit of these are closer to the hypervenom phantom or magista obra?
I wouldn't really compare them to either of those two boots, but they fit tighter, which would be closer to the Hypervenoms.
Josh will you be doing a review on the Premier 2 that came out today?
Absolutely.
When I try these on at the store the feel very stiff, I can't even move my toes. Do these break in and become more soft?
They'll become a little more flexible, but it's definitely a stiffer boot overall.
Hey josh i run a lot on the field so do you think I should get the ace 17.2
I'm not a huge fan of them.
Soccer Reviews For You oh how about the nemeziz 17.2?
Hi josh would you take these over the vigor 1 from puma
No.
Are all of the .3's in adidas fg/ag?
Yes.
thank you
Does the sole plate for the ace 17 line feel really stiff for you.
I wouldn't say that it's overly stiff. The upper if fairly stiff though, especially rally when they're new.
hey josh...can u plzzz tell me which boot should i buy from these three below
1. adidas ace 17.1 primeknit
2. adidas x 16.1
3. puma evopower vigor 1
plzzzz do reply thankxxx
It all depends on what type of fit and feel that you're looking for. Of the three, my personal favorite is the evoPOWER.
Love your videos!Been a Sub for a while now!Keep up your great videos💓
pure speed or hypervenom df?
THE NOTORIOUS Connor McGregor hypervenom low cut
Nathan Z I tried them on and they hurt my heel ..just ordered the df on a good deal 😊
What is ur thoughts on Nike academy closing ?
I don't really have much to say about honestly. It's not something that I personally followed.
Yo josh what are your favourite adidas boot and what is the best adidas boot for a right back?
My personal favorite boot from Adidas right now is the Purespeed. Your position has nothing to do with what boots you should wear. Watch this video, it will explain some things you should know th-cam.com/video/EMnhKcyKCvs/w-d-xo.html
Soccer Reviews For You Thanks for the tips ( the video was boss )👍🏽
Hey josh
Great video like always but
I think the boot is not overrated in my opinion.
I bought them for me and when i wear them i feel extrem comfortable. Of course 200€ is a lot of money, but in my opinion it is one of the best boots on the market right now in terms of shooting passing and ball control.
They're not bad shoes, and I'm not surprised that you like them. I think most people who did buy these like them. What I'm saying, is that in comparison to everything else, mainly shoes that feature similar elements, I don't think the ACE 17.1 is as good as some of the competition. If you've only worn these, you'll most likely be happy with them, but if you've worn everything in this category, most people would not pick these.
hey josh could you maka a video about the best adidas boots and the "baddest"on.And maybe the under and overrated boots from adidas.
I wear size 10.5 on the tiempo legend 5 white and black. What size should i get for the Superfly 5's dark lightning?
I wear a size 9US in Mercurials and a size 9.5US in Tiempos.
can you please review the new magnetic storm 17.1
which one is for you better the ace 17.1 or nemeziz?
I prefer the Nemeziz 17.1.
Would you recommend 17.1 primeknit or obra 2's?
I much prefer the Obra 2. I talk about that a little bit in the video.
Josh, how does the ace 17.1 cost more than the ace 17.2 ?
What do you mean?
At adidas.be the ace costs 17.1 around € 250 and the ace 17.2 costs around 130. The 17.2 is the next version of the 17.1 right? Why does the 17.1 cost more?
Kevin Vermeulen 17.2 is a takedown model of 17.1.
Would crep protect keep the white; white ?
I wouldn't think so.
Soccer Reviews For You what would be the best way to keep my cleats white ?
Hi could u please do a video on the ace 17.2 dust storm too (:
Which boot do u prefer? Ace 16.1 Primeknit or the Ace 17.1 primeknit
I prefer the 16.1.
The best football boots are Nike mercurial Vapours for me. They're light,durable and are so comfortable.It almost seems like I'm playing in socks.
what is your favorite Adidas tango stuff
What specifically are you asking about? Shoes, apparel?
like clothes and shoes for all tango surfaces
yes i really wanted to see a review on these
In your opinion which would you prefer X 15.1 or X 16.1?
I prefer the X 16.1, mainly just because it fits better in the heel area.
great video. btw will you be doing a Nike premier 2 review?
Yes, that's coming.
Bought them for 85€ in leather , coming from Nitrocharge 1.0. They fit well, I had the 16.1 synthetic and the 17.1 for choice here.
Where did you bought them from??
Somewhere in Germany
hey josh is there gonna be a deals of the week vid coming out soon?
There will very likely be one this week, yes.
Do you have to get a size up?
No. I talk about the specifics of the fit and sizing in the video.
Soccer Reviews For You oh ok thank you
Does anyone like the idea of a Control X Purespeed boot
What is better ace 17.1 or x 17.1
It's not really a matter of better or worse, they're simply different. It depends on what type of fit and feel that you're looking for.
Phelon 3 vs phantom 1?
????
phelon
the phantom 1 is a softer upper but it's not the most durable shoe while the Phelon 3 which I wear at the moment is a good quality upper that's a mesh base material and is a bit more durable. the lockdown on the phantom 1 isn't the greatest either while the Phelon 3 has a decent amount of lockdown
The Phantom 1 is a better shoe.
These or the x16.1
Which are better?
I prefer the X.
I know legend 7 is a fabulous boot but I love Ace's design and it fits to my toe when I first wore this at market;; Do you think this is not a good product enough to buy?
I am thinking Legend 7 and this but I've not have worn kangaroo leather so I'm pretty concerned
I much prefer the Legends, but these are by no means bad, just different.
having tried both I definitely prefer the Obra 2.
I legit just bought these today. XD
Why do you hate Adidas?
I don't, I just don't think that everything they make is amazing.
Soccer Reviews For You first of all I appreciate you responding to my post, but I still believe that you are more critical about adidas products than you are about Nike's.
I have these, super comfortable!!
These shoes are really comfortable and good you den get them cheap too
THEY LOOK MORE EXPENSIVE AND COOL IN BLUE BLACK AND WHITE COLOUR
I prefer low cut shoes but i won these in a raffle so I can't complain.
Waiting patiently on the Legend VII review
Hi
i have these in blue blast they r sick
I have blue ones
Hi Josh
Can u do a review for the indoor version of this boot thanks...
They break in so quick and easy
Hey Josh. I've seen Bendtner in some blackout boots in training and matches (i've only seen him in them for one match). The boots doesn't look like regular superfly 5's either.
I said this last video aswell
Of course this video comes out the day after I order them..
Luis Orozco I have these shoes and I like everything about them. Don't worry about these reviews. If the cleats fit your feet I'm sure u will like them
Luis Orozco These boots are a really good boot, especially compared to the 17+, they offer a great fit and touch and are really responsive
If you like them, that's what matters here. Like I said in the video, I don't think these are bad shoes, but in comparison to other mid-cut, knitted boots, I don't think these are as good as the other options available in terms of the experience they offer.
