Great advice. It’s funny watching this soon after seeing a bunch of your Seattle winter videos. Very different scenery.
😂 100% mate! Crazy how different it is!
love the vids bro
Thank you brother!
This reminds me of my recent boot process. I asked you in the GT video about them and fitting wide feet vs vapor. Had a vapor prior and over time, it felt good. I got both to give them a shot. GT were comfortable at first, but for some reason, I kept coming back to the vapors even though it was not comfortable at first when breaking in for my very wide feet. Pinching on the outside of each of my forefoots and heels were uncomfortable. But after about 2 hours (like you said) it was perfect. Something about these vapors that I love and going back to the GTs, we’re as in love with them. So made the choice to go with the vapors! Funny because your process is similar to my process, to a T.
Exactly mate! I was thrilled Nike was making a "wide" boot but it definitely didn't fit as well over time as the Vapor... Classic Nike switching things up. I'm glad you found a pair of boots you like!
For real thanks, the whole outside of my foot under my little toe feels like hell with Vapors need to break them in
You're welcome mate, hope these help!
i think am just gonna watch all you vids really intresting
Thank you brother! I really appreciate the support!
Hi Noah! Have been watching a couple of your videos lately, they're class! Just wondering if I could get your thoughts on this problem. I'm currently on the lookout for new boots. I believe I almost have the same foot type as you judging from what you've said in some of your other videos. Tried on the Puma ultras today, and they fit me great. But, the mercurial has always been a sort of "dream boot" of mine, which I've always looked past because of the thought of it being too narrow for me. This video got me thinking, would you rather break in a pair of mercurials or play in the Puma ultras if you had gotten yours?
Great question! I did end up getting my actual size in the Ultras and they fit very well... that being said, I’m really used to the way the vapors fit and I really love how the current generation fit! To be honest, if someone were to give me a free pair, I’d be super happy with either one! At the end of the day, right now I like how the mercurials fit my foot a tiny bit better and I think they look absolutely class.
@@NoahCavanaugh Thanks for the answer! Keep up the good work, mate!
Hi bro; great videos. I read below you go half size bigger than other models. How is the lengh of this boots compared with the puma ultra?
That's a great question! I'd say they both fit true to size, I just went up 1/2 size for the vapors so that it was easier to break in for my wide feet! If you have skinny/thinner feet, go true to size!
My vapor 13 is tight in my toe area
I want to take off my heel pad for some extra space
What do you say about that?
Please reply it's so important 🍻💕
Quality content. You told us everything we needed to know. Would the hot water trick do any damage to the Vapor 13's ?
I don’t usually recommend that just because hot water can compromise the construction of any boot, but if you don’t have a problem with it, it’s a great way to break them in!
I have got the new predators I have a wide foot are the spikes glue or stitched on the boots I have got the freak+
Glued!
Ive been having problems with my nee phantom gts ive been wearing them for 2 weeks and and causing heel pain and discomfort causing painful blisters they may be a little big but im still a growing teen, what would u reccomend for me
I'd recommend hanging in there for a bit longer - maybe a week or so. If they are still hurting your feet after that, I'd consider trying something else! I've heard that same complaint from quite a few people with the GTs, not sure where it comes from but perhaps the heel just isn't the right shape for your foot!
i just got mercurial 15 they dont hurt but definetly bother me i dont know if i should return or wait but i feel like a half size up would be too big
I'd try to break them in a bit first and if they still bother you then return them!
Do you go half a size up ?.. also do you have any tips for mental strength?.. I do a lot of footwork drills and have no problem doing step overs but in actual games or training sessions with my team I don’t feel as confident and feel like I am going to mess up and I just don’t do what comes to my head.. do you have any tips ?.
I had this problem a year ago I would be scared of doing step overs and skills moves so what I did was during possession I would ball hog a little so I can be more confident. I would try to do a step over and beat a defender or two then pass the ball. During games, just do the move. If you lose the ball just get it back. Don’t worry abt losing possession you gotta keep doing the moves so you aren’t scared.
@@reloading4439 thank you for tip !
@@reloading4439 did you ever make progress or how are you now compared to last year ?
@@edwin5091 yes now when I have the opportunity to take a defender 1v1 I take it and normally beat the defender. If I’ve been denied a few times I’ll try to stall so my outside back can overlap me
Yes! These are a US 9.5 instead of my usual size 9 that I would wear in the Ultra, Phantom GT, etc! That’s just because the vapor fits so snugly.
Mental strength is a HUGE deal, and I’ve struggled with that as well! I’ll probably make a longer video on this topic but I would say the first thing to do is try and train with other people as often as possible and do 1v1s and small sided games where you can try all the skills you’ve been practicing! Especially in those scenarios, it’s easy for a defender to anticipate what you’ll do if you don’t switch it up! Use it as an opportunity to test out and train new skills in a competitive environment with “no stakes” (i.e. not playing in front of anyone you need to impress). Does that make sense? It’s a tough one for sure but it’s important to stay positive and strong 💪🏼 be awesome!!
Do you find it hard that you take football extremely seriously as it’s your life and job while others on your team it’s not their full time job and might have 3-4 things that come before soccer... love the vids
I am thrilled you brought this up brother, thank you. Yes, all the time. It’s very frustrating but it also motivates me to move up into leagues where players are only worried about football (or like me, they do football full time and then have a side hustle or two). At the end of the day, I have to focus on myself and taking my career to the next level. If that means switching teams every year or just ignoring the fact that others don’t take it seriously... either way I have to focus on myself!
You need to contact nike professionals soccer cleats makers. In Italy 🇮🇹. It's going to change your game for ever
I'm not too familiar with those guys to be honest! Do they make better football boots?
@@NoahCavanaugh yes. And its 100%h hand made
@@vlogwassimmaroc4630 Is it possible to get them somewhere? I’m not sure where I would contact them mate!
@@NoahCavanaugh its Tailored
@@vlogwassimmaroc4630 I understand you mate, I just don’t think you can “call them up” and order a pair 👍🏼
Help me I played with new boots and broke my ankle
That’s really unfortunate mate! I hope you get better soon 💪🏼
Recover and break in the boots without your legs meaning: just use hot water, fill in the boots with old clothes, and etc. Most of the boots that cause these are either academy or club because it’s stiff and academy or club are good for the people who know how to use them not anyone who is a beginner in football so yh use the tips I mentioned and you may have a good restart
Are those ags mercs or is it just me 😅
They are! In my review I explain why I played a bit in the AG model 🤝
Can you sum up the steps
Watch the video mate 🤝
@@NoahCavanaugh I did but I was out on the field with my new boots when i commented so i just skipped through trying to put it all together quickly
@@khalidcr9 👍🏼🤝
