Predator for me, because the u-throat construction means I can pull the laces tight and get a nice wrap on my slim foot. The GX2 has a predetermined shape which my foot doesn’t have enough volume to fill.

Amazing analysis and breakdown, as always man! I am thinking of new boots and have a question on the feel of striking in these. How would you compare or describe the power-feel when pinging a ball in the GX 2 vs the Predator Accuracy (previous model)? I have the Pred Accuracy now, with a broken sole plate which I felt was too aggressive and unstable on AG, but have loved the hybridtouch upper and leather-like feel when striking the ball. And wasn’t a big fan of the knit upper on the Phantom Vision. I’m looking at either, having watched your AG review on the new GX, but am curious. Apologies for the long comment! Cheers mate!
@NoahCavanaugh11 күн бұрын
I like the GX2 because of the pingy feeling I get - it’s a bit more barefoot
@mihaichirobocea41877 ай бұрын
Great review Noah. After Accuracy this Elite model looks great and glad that Adidas went in the right direction with this and didn't do anything stupid like the Edge. I'm with you in the fact that I would have preferred on the Elite model the knitted tongue and I don't understand why they went with the standard classic on this model, but used the knitted one on the lower model. Hopefully the width of that tongue is gonna help out, but I know that it will shift no matter how tight it is.

Predator feels super comfortable at the bottom of the feet. Both do actually. The GX2 actually feels like a thick sock. So buttery and soft. Softer than magista 2 obra. And very very grippy all around. Predator feel stiffer initially. But they feel so nice to the touch. Like a suede like feeling to me. I stuck with predator because I am old and prefer a tongue lol. Easier to tighten or loosen. I’ll add that it was very easy to get the gx2 on my feet. No issues there. But I just prefer a tongue.

Having the predator, after a few matches on AG, I have to say they aren't suitable for it at all. The studs are way too long and aggressive, they put a lot of strain on the legs, and have caused me a lot of pain, just hoping it's not long term. Have ordered the Phantoms with AG studs and will hopefully it will be better. This is the 2024 version though as it has a wider toebox. The teal one in the video was very tight widthwise and squeezed my toes.

I bought the new Phantom GX2 and I’m mad that they ruined it. The Nike Hypervenom Phantom 3 was just perfect cause I have wide feet. Now for me GX2 and GX1 are for narrow feet. I’m sad cause GX2 and GX1 are beautiful and look very comfortable but just can’t buy it. I bought Puma Future turf and they are już right as Adidas Crazy fast (I have them too) I wish that Phantoms will be again for wide feet in the future :( Now I just have to buy something from Puma or Adidas cause they are just for my wide feet.
