The 10th generation of Tiempo Legend sees the biggest and most controversial change so far, swapping the kangaroo leather upper for synthetic! Are they even Tiempos at this point?
In today's video we compare the outgoing Nike Tiempo Legend 9 Elite to the new Legend 10 Elite. Are Nike's claims of the new synthetic upper being softer than kangaroo leather true, or just total nonsense? We compare the two boots in every possible way, and help you decide whether or not you should be looking to upgrade out of your kangaroo leather boots, and into synthetic ones. Which one would you pick?

I swear you're literally the only reviewer who is actually honest about boots. I've seen others say how good the 10 is in hopes to sell boots off their website

[@chanchaniceman]

As awesome as the legend 10 is in its own right,I just don’t think it has any DNA of the tiempos rather it is own thing and more like the continuation of the CTR360 line. Love synthetic uppers but leather boots anyday be it calf skin or K-leather because the comfort,fit and how it soften up just hits the spot

[@isareejustice351]

New update on the boot rack? Love the looks of Son’s cleats.

Great review! Jacob is the Nike Premier going to be discontinued?

[@Soccerreviewsforyou]

That hasn’t been officially announced, but based on the no more k-leather announcement, I’d guess that its days are numbered.

[@erickdiaz3437]

Wearing the 9s for a while and it’s like your foot likes to be in it. It is a very good cleat and love it.

These legend 10’s are the real deal! I’m a ctr360 guy who switched to the tiempos. 2 different boots, but you can’t go wrong with either.

[@bryang.5064]

Spot on!!! I bought the Legend 10s as I’m a huge CTR360 advocate and 4 days ago I hit on the re release of the CTRs on the Nike app 😂 but the Tiempos 10 are very similar to the CTR. Will rotate them for a good while.

[@anakbandel00]

In Indonesia its pretty difficult to to find pro or elite... For academy tier's which one better 9 or 10?

[@philhaynes5969]

I know the answer without watching the video tbh. Leather shits on synthetic all day long

[@khelgarironfist3301]

I've worn both the pro and elite FG variants of this Tiempo and sent them both back in a few weeks due to soles quickly seperating. Just like the legend 9. 0/10 durability.

Nike is %100 doing this synthetic Tiempo crap to save money and nothing more. Theres dozens of good synthetic options already people buy Tiempos for the leather. That said i am stocking up on OG hypervenom phantoms because i spoiled myself buying a pair and can't go back to anything else now

[@emmanuel-davidkwilukama3702]

Hey, what would you recommend as an alternative for puma king ultimates, like the good version not that 2021 bs? Size 9, narrow feet, decent arch, hate thick toe boxes, that’s it, lemme know?

[@Soccerreviewsforyou]

The Legend 10 isn’t far off the Puma King Platinum. They’re arguably better in a lot of ways

[@waitandbleed98]

Why are a lot of players that often wear mercurials or a control boot are now opting for the tiempos

[@SL9]

Don't get it twisted people, they discontinued the tiempo and brought back the CTR. No thanks to the plastic boots. I'll stick with leather.

are the mizuno morelia neo 4 beta a big difference for the neo 3 beta? mizuno is going to be the only cleats I buy since nike and adidas are getting rid of k leather

[@kravasa]

Design wise only a little bit, but many people I've heard said the upper is softer and more comfortable that the neo 3

[@RedEyePergo]

I was super dissapointed in the pair of Mizuno Morelia pros i bought. The sole was way too narrow so I returned them .

[@GoodWillRacing]

Don’t forget Asics has some really nice leather options 👍🏼

[@rousseau327]

[@phoenixf786]

they are really nice and look very comfortable. Which do you recommend between Tiempo Legend 10 and Phantom GX? which of these 2 are more comfortable and good for AG fields and against ankle injuries?

[@mrboss5645]

The tiempos are the most comfortable boot I have ever worn in my life, I could sleep in them and not even notice them on my feet. Almost no blisters max protection from stud stompers and amazing support, 100% recommend the 9 elites

[@samkelly7739]

first yay i love your content

[@jayfremmer9417]

Don't be fooled, the Tiempo 10 is a far less premium product and costs Nike far less to produce than the Tiempo 9.

[@MehmetCelik-qe3zf]

ı have tiempo 9 now, should ı buy tiempo 10? is it bad ?

[@manueltumino2394]

For the wear: for the tiempo legend 9 I always wear 10, for the tiempo legend 10 what size do I take?

[@khelgarironfist3301]

same

[@user-ge8mi2bn3n]

No K Leather No Problem! The synthetic leather is just as comfortable and these feel amazing on feet. 100% agree that the differences are minimal between the pro model and the elite model and that the pro model is the best bang for your buck. At $150 the Legend 10 Pro is hugely underrated and one of the best boots in the market at that price point (I'd say they are even better than some top tier boots out there). This is a really really really good football boot, 10/10 recommend.

[@poseidon6417]

No thanks. “Flytouch plus” what a fancy name for what is basically plastic garbage. For plastic they dare to charge you EUR 250. They reduce the cost, make even more profits and sell it to the public like they are doing all this to save the “environment”. So bought the Mizuno Morelia 2 elite instead. Super comfortable buttery soft full k-leather boot, on sale for EUR 110.

[@GoodWillRacing]

If I can find the Legend 10 in a ROSS, Burlington and/or TJMaxx for like $20-30 I’ll buy it otherwise I’ll be sticking to Mizuno & Asics from now on for my leather boots 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼

The Tiempo Elite and Pro are so similar in the Legend 10 series I reckon the Legend 11 Elite will have the Nike air zoom sole plate to set them apart from Pros. Thus making them the ultimate Nike football (probably) of all time!

No one is wearing these professionally? Through all these international friendlies.. still wearing the 9's. Speaks volumes..

Only ones I’ve seen so far are Bruno Fernandes and Virgil Van Dijk. It’s Gonna be like the same situation we had last season where some players at big clubs are wearing previous boots generations like Modric and Kimmich with their Nike Mercurial Vapor 14s along with Karim Benzema and Aaron Wan Bissaka with their X-speedflows. Plus I won’t be surprised they’re waiting for a leather upper variation

[@user-mv7kh5sv9z]

@@chanchaniceman Even if they're wearing the 10s, it's definitely not synthetic as what Nike is selling to civilians

[@chanchaniceman]

@@user-mv7kh5sv9z I mean I won’t be surprised if that’s the case and if the uppers that professionals are using far more different be it leather or some form of synthetic. Professional footballers from big brands always have something different be it upper a softer upper or different soleplates

Football boots are just a drop in the box compared to other leather goods for what kangaroos are killed for. Besides, unless you are a vegetarian/vegan, this is a moot point

Josh, why would you say that the micro-texture doesn't do anything? Of course it does. Physics... friction, etc etc. I'm not being sarcastic
