  • Discussing the latest launches from adidas, Nike, Mizuno and PUMA. In today's Episode 148 of the Boot Nerds Podcast, JayMike and Josh discuss the brand new Unisport x PUMA collaboration, the new Mizuno Alpha speed boots, the adidas Predator Absolute remakes in gold and the new Nike World Cup Pack. The boys wax lyrical over a few of the boots, but also give a fair criticism to the Mizuno Alpha football boots over the price point, which is a thing that doesn't happen often on the Boot Nerds Podcast.

    Seems like Mizuno products are more expensive in Europe/Canada. I’m in Singapore. The Mizuno Alphas cost SGD$279 and the Mecurials 15 elite cost SGD$379.

    Thanks for answering the question! I should have specified in the second question they would eventually come back as a remake
    Question for both: what would be your ideal boots if you had a say in every aspect of the product? Forget brands or proprietary technologies restricted to one brand. Color too 🤭
    Ex: full kangaroo leather upper, offcenter laces, staggered lacing system, anatomical plate that is ridgid on the front, bladed studs with an external full-rubber heel counter. Full blackout

    Quick question: Tekela V4 Pro vs the Speedflow X. Do you think the Tekela comes close to being equal to the Speedflow, or is it a close 2nd place?

    Okay just watch the unisport video on world cup balls (great video by the way) and I spied that “JayMike Zidane” was wearing the Edge 94+’s. So what are your thoughts on the boots?
    I personally like them but have a hard time playing in them, the shape is a bit off. Hasn't been too bad when not freezing but once my toes are numb, the additional factor makes them really hard to play with in the cold.

    As far as I know, alphas sell for about 22000 yen in Japan, which translates into 155 dollars or euros in the current weak yen environment. Why don’t they reduce the prices at least a little bit? I also tried to find a Japan-based trustworthy place that sends these boots from Japan but I haven’t found one.

    Love the bootnerds. I want to try Mizuno boots for the 1st time, and am considering to buy morelia neo 3 beta elite from unisport, could you please comment on this boot? Q1 - I have very flat feet (fit speedflow well, but vapor 14 is too tight), will the boot fit me comfortably? Q2 - I live in US and play on AG, is the stud shape and length suitable? Q3 - If the boots don't fit and I need to return to Unisport, do I need to pay international shipping myself? Thank you!

      1. They will fit you good since they are less tight than Vapor 14. 2: Works perfect on AG and the boots holds up really really good. 3: Can't answer that one for you.

      I’ve had all 3 boots you’ve mentioned, and I had to go half a size down on Speedflow and Mizuno, and my regular size on Mercurial, so yeah I guess you can somewhat compare it to the Speedflow in terms of sizing, but they offer different sensations

    Definitely agree that Mizuno is too expensive. I feel like they can afford to make them cheaper, they do need to figure out their pricing. The Alpha Elite are apparently really good as well. Fun fact, pre-orders for the Alpha MiJ pretty much sold out within the first week that pre-orders went live. It does help that they are a lot cheaper in Japan than they are overseas, but of course exporting boots have a lot of costs associated with them but surely it's not that much more to justify such a high price.
