So, more than ever it's more difficult to decide which one you should buy. Well, don't worry, that's what I'm here to help with. We have a comparison of the new 2024 F50 soleplates, FG vs AG and soon we will have a women's fit comparison available for you as well.
BUT, beware, it's not just the soleplates that are different, there's also some odd colourway differences that you need to be careful to pick up on too!

I didn't include the weight information, it doesn't make a big difference at all, but I will include it in my next F50 video coming on the 10/06 as a comparison between the FG, AG & Women's fit boots. However, for those of you that want to know the difference between these 2, 178g for the FG, 169g for the AG.
Interesting and surprising to see the ag version are in fact lighter! Good to see nice solid midsole with these. (Unlike Nike with their GX2 AG which fold in the middle like paper, what were they thinking?!)
Great reviews man!! Really informative, awesome you are reviewing all the different available models and explaining the differences. Much appreciated from fellow boot nerd 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 (looking forward to the mid version review too :p)
@@gabr131s9 thanks for watching the channel and I'm glad you're finding it useful. Always good to keep the boot nerds informed. Not just the GX2 AG that folds, the bloody FG does it as well!
Mid cut womens fit comparison video should be out tomorrow.
@@BootWizard nah man thank you for your work, love it! My job is easy as a casual viewer writing comments haha. Ahhh ok even the fg’s do! So annoying, I hope the next gen of Phantoms has a stiffer soleplate.
Ok mate looking forward to it!! 🙌🏼
can confirm the ag f50s are fantastic on ag pitches and significantly softened up after 2 hours of play time 👌🏼
Love to hear it! Thanks for letting us know. 🔥🔥🔥🔥.
Nice! Just got mine today - did you go true to your normal Nike size, or half size down?
@@rrao1128true to US sizing same size I wear for Nike 👌🏼
How has the durability been on AG pitches?
@@chingycjaii they’re brand new so idk yet lol
Good stuff, been hoping you'd do a video like this!
Just a brief little comparison, hopefully helps a few people out.
@@BootWizard Think it will do, for sure.
I love AG reviews, do more!!
Unfortunately it involves buying 2 pairs of the same boot which makes it a VERY expensive review to make :(
Can you make a video how to lace the F50 as an example with the Runnersloop?
Will do
I got the AG version it feels amazing and mentally I feel safer playing on AG
Yeah it seems great and for sure it adds to a feeling of saftey
🔥Just got mine today - did you go true to your normal Nike size, or half size down?
@@rrao1128 half down from my Nike size if we are talking US sizes
@@rrao1128 half size down from Nike
@@BootWizard interesting, the feedback is all over the place from reviewers lol. I got them in my true to Nike size (8 US) and my “Mizuno” size (7.5 US). The width on the 8.0 is perfect but there’s slightly over half a thumb space at the edge. The length on the 7.5 is snug up to the edge, but the toebox width is a bit cramped and my outer toes are slightly curled. Wondering if the 7.5 would break in enough to make it wider, or if I go with the 8.0
Hey BootWizard 👋🏾
I bought 2 laceless FG versions in my size 9.5 US, and I'm super satisfied with everything they offer, but I was looking for an AG to be safer on turf fields...
Do I go true to size for the ag version, or should I go half a size down since adidas had the ag version that was a bit wider than FG and personally I like super snug fit (one to one sensation with the ball)
Depends on the length, if you're happy with the length in the FG then stick with that in the AG there's very little width difference here
Thanks for doing this comparison! So the upper on the AG version of the new Euro pack feels the same as the FG version? And neither is the same as the launch colorway…
Exactly
@@BootWizardAwesome
I just saw the AG model on the Adidas website and it looks like an interesting take on cyclone technology and possibly done better than Nike.
I wouldn't really compare the Nike cyclone 360 to this, they're very different approaches and very different soleplates for different purposes, it does however have some similarities to what Nike have previously done with the boots such as the Magista line.
Do u think they should have gone for more aggressive studs on the fg considering that the ag plate is similar enough to the current standard fg layout
Not really, I think the FG soleplate and stud pattern suits the boots and going more aggressive just because there is a less aggressive AG option I don't think makes sense. I prefer the idea of having the best possible FG soleplate to provide the right feel for the boot
Good vid but is anyone else waiting patiently for the rest of the ultimate grip sock tier list lol
It's on the way. Big boot drops tend to take precedence, I'll be back to the socks soon.
Have ordered my AGs. Really hoping they can finally replace my 2011 F50 AGs that i have been trying to find better since they broke in 2017 😅
That's a long time searching! Fingers crossed they work for you.
@@BootWizard Cheers mate and great video! Was looking for ages for an AG review but dived in nonetheless! Thoughts on the Mizuno Morelia beta MIJ line? I have been using the 3's for the last year or so and love them but the F50 comeback was too tempting!
@@PT7Games I actually don't review leather boots on the channel, it's all synthetics so I haven't tried them. I'd recommend getting in touch with @lockhartbootblog on Instagram, I do our weekly podcast on the channel with him and he is an expert on all things leather and Japanese. He will be able to help you out
I was getting heel problems and blisters from these new f50s should I stick with the ones that I have and see if they improve or should I go half a size up or down.
Sizing depends on if you got the wrong size the first time around! I couldn't tell you to go up or down, it will depend on how the current pair fit.
Hi James, do the laced f50s run a bit long? Or TTS
No different than the laceless, your normal Adidas size should be fine.
Hey man loved the vid im currently looking for a new boot i have somewhat narrow feet, the pumas ultra 1.4 fit mg fit me perfectly and ive had them for 2 years with no issues no seperation even just the upper has some holes but not noticable so i wanted to ask what boot you think i should go with ive had a great experience with the ultras but i dont think id like the new generation as its not even light and it adds nothing extra, i was thinking of buying the new balance furon v7+ pro ag since i found them for 150$ what do you think im really searching for good durable boots i play football alot and what rhem to last long do you think the new balance would be a good fit or do you have other suggestions you think i should wait for the new mercs to come out and in ag or go with furons?
New balance Furon V7+ pro is one of my favourite boots at the moment. Durability will pretty much be the same as any other boot. Width wise they're reasonably middle of the road. A good choice.
I'd avoid the current generation Puma Ultra unless you're looking at the Ultra 5 Carbon.
@BootWizard I see I ordered puma ultra ultimate mg because it was discounted and I wanted to see how it fit you think the furon v7 + ag would be more durable and better in every aspect
@@KnowledgeableServant I don't know about durability, it's hard to say for sure. But every other aspect I prefer the V7+
@@BootWizard I'm contemplating between furon v7+pro ag and mizuno alpha elite mij ag one NB goes for 150 mizuno for 250 which one would you pick if you had narrow feet like me and play football often on ag Surfaces and you want them to last long
Managed to get a pair of the AG - went same size as the new Predator Elite with tongue, they fit length wise but feel a little snug compared to the preds, do they soften or worth returning for half a size upper?
Wore a 10.5 in the speed flow, but 10 in the portal
thanks!
That's a good question because I don't have the same experience as you pretty much with any of those boots 😂.
The best advice I can give you is that there is some stretch in the upper but not a huge amount and I'd definitely wear them around the house and see how you feel. I have a feeling that half up will end up being very long. But totally up to how you feel.
@@BootWizard thank you! Sprint drills round the house it is.
I think you’re right, the .5 up will probably bend on the toes as I try and run 😂
Update - wore them and despite my initial fear, they were great in a game on 3G, I think I actually prefer them over the Predators, not quite Speedflow levels of comfort but very close.
@@deejaybenji2009do you have wide feet? And do you think they would fit good on someone with wide feet?
Will they be releasing the second tier “pro” version? According to sr4u, it’s a better purchase than the elite version, so I’m waiting on that lol
I maybe wouldn't expect this exact AG plate to transfer across, more likely there will be a different Multi Ground option on the pro similar to what is available on the Predator.
@@BootWizardwould the multi ground be a good substitute for AG surface, in your opinion? 🤔
@@princeabs247 absolutely, I think it would be good..
Well the thing is i cannot find anywhere boots with AG soleplate here in my country
Ah man that sucks
@BootWizard just wondering is the studs for Predator Elite the same length as f50 or a bit shorter?
@@imranazis7689 very similar, probably longer in places
Wow, somebody who is actually reviewing an AG boot vs the FG plate. Thank you. Still waiting for mines to come. Its been delayed. You really should've tried them on first before reviewing. The studs do seem a bit too long, and there's no enough of them. Better than their previous ag plate with the triangle studs or the stupidly clunky 2g/3g version, but still could do better.
Fully testing and wearing 2 pairs of exactly the same boot is unfortunately crazy expensive, I simply can't afford to review the FG and the AG in full, hence why they weren't worn and it's just a straight comparison to the FG instead of a full review.
@@BootWizard I understand. Thanks for doing what you can. Where did you get the AG version from? Pro direct don't sell it
@@tn7328 ordered direct from Adidas for mine.
What’s the weight difference between the ag and fg?
The AG is 9g lighter
is there a difference in weight
The AG is lighter, 178g to 169g. Really not enough to make a big difference.
@@BootWizard damm its the first time adidas has lighter ag than fg i think
@@Zaxstar007 very possible
The AG are thicker simply because the artificial grass destroys shoes faster than natural grass. This applies the most to the front of the boot!
If you're playing on both, please use the AG version. I busted my ACL using the last F50 generation (2017, before this remake) because they were FG. Protect your knees and ankles
The AG boots aren't thicker because they're supposed to be used on Artificial grass, while I agree AG destroys boots faster it's incredibly rare to find any difference in the upper of a boot with an AG plate with the exception of occasionally finding some reinforcement around the toe area. In this instance as I suggested, it's the different colourway that has changed how the upper feels, the FG version in the same advancement pack colourway both the women's and the regular fit have exactly the same upper as the AG, I have all 3 currently.
I do agree about using correct boots for the correct surfaces. Always better to be safe.
@@BootWizard Thanks for your feedback 😊
@@louka3891 thanks for watching and the information on what you went thought with the different soleplates
How long of ag stud
2:50
@@BootWizard Thank you sir , how about compare with tiempo 10 ag
@@aasfasasd I don't have the Tiempo 10 AG unfortunately
The studs are a bit long and there are not enough of them to be a really good AG soleplate, but it’s better than Adidas only selling FG boots.
Yeah as I said I think they are a little long in the back, I'm not too bothered about the number, it has never really been an issue for me as long as they're conical, sometimes too many is just as bad. All depends on preference though.
