Nike explain why they updated the Phantom GX 2

[@Onfeet.review]

love the way you said the venom 2 is terrible in front of Nike Product Line Manager

[@armandosoria6877]

That’s why I value Jay Mike’s opinion. He keeps it real and is a baller who appreciates a good boot.

[@luisaguirre5771]

I don’t think he was in charge at the time

[@Nikosiko]

Unisports,you guys have helped me improve my football skills and game sense so much so THANKS for making these types of videos

[@bilmaj4613]

The gx alone is better than the combination and luna

[@yovanilla]

Very interesting to hear the thoughts and concepts behind a new design. I for one would like to say I don't need constant model cycling. Some minor improvements here and there but mostly I want some familiarity when it's time to buy again.

[@GeraldLee21]

reminds me of the T90 laser 1 circular patterns but in knit form and the circular stud pattern from the ctr360 maestri

[@juang8360]

Am I the only one here to perceive a great amount of tension in the interview??

[@All_About_the_Benjamins]

The Phantom Luna 1 came and went and not a single KZbinr did a review of the Phantom Luna (non-Elite version).

[@jfkfade8124]

Please get in more stock for Phantom GX Elite with AG studs 😢

[@BrandonJohnston-d6m]

Not gonna lie that part about the studs being “scientifically” better compared to conical studs is hard for me to believe. You mean to tell me after all these years of creating AG sole plates (which btw are predominantly conical) somehow bladed studs in the form of a circle somehow aid in keep players from injury? Yeah, that’s cap. Fair to Jay for actually asking this question but I mean the PLM coulda answered this a bit more honestly.

[@squidwardmoto2465]

😭 bro it’s literally a gimmick imo, plm said it looks aggressive 😂 making the players think they can cut sharper that’s apparently their purpose lmao in short THEYRE USELESS

[@shanec8224]

Typically blades when laid out in most of the common patterns we see aid in greater traction than conical studs, but the trade off is with all that grip injuries are more common. The circular layout of the blades under the forefoot logically makes sense for reducing drag/traction when pivoting which is when most injuries occur… that said it’s still grippier than AG studs so not recommended for AG.

[@BrandonJohnston-d6m]

@@shanec8224 fair point. But there are too many negative variables for me personally to have blind faith in that stud pattern. I get that no stud pattern is perfect. It’s highly unlikely a boot will ever have a “perfect outsole” unless it’s built specifically to mine or yours or someone else’s unique foot/biomechanics. But again you make a fair point, it all comes down to personal preference at the end of the day.

[@Oliver-wx8sf]

The only thing i dont like is the naming if i remember correctly the luna is the one with upper sock.in my opinion thats just confusing for the average people.

[@yacobz]

I appreciate all the advocacy you do. As far as morning players not to use FG on AG pitches. A new adult player like me is inundated with a ton of information saying otherwise, and the last thing I want to do is to limp awaywith a lifelong injury from a simple recreational hobby.

[@chris425amp7]

Tiempo 9 Montebelluna was the best boot's of 2023. Had to get them for my Son, love's K leather an Nike's last Elite leather. He's wearing the Phantom TC Tech Craft an said they are great

[@HerNANNOs]

The answer it's one: For marketing.

[@Kjsingles]

It’s out now and it’s seems like people are favoring the phantom that says gx2 as that is almost sold out and that for the Luna (upper version) their are still plenty pairs! Interested to see more reviews on them, for now just ordered the 1st gens and will determine where I go from their, any thoughts?

[@thebootnerd]

Gx1 is way to go

[@RK1.111]

Next episode, aspect of a defensive midfielder

[@MasibuleleMAJIKIJA]

I like the way you explain

[@johnmiller9253]

Is this code for Luna was a disaster, and our suppliers are complaining about inventory. Thus, we need to get rid of the Luna sole plates. We know it screws up a perfectly good boot silo, but we are Nike and don’t really care.

[@adamkinowski2354]

Nailed it

[@ahaider5032]

Hi! I've just bought these and after one 1 hour session they feel a bit tight as my big toe hurts after the match, would you recommend completely removing the laces and playing without them?

[@RayPrakarsa]

5:50 - is that AG stud?

[@craigcoco6014]

Yes

[@natepg]

just from your personal preference would you get the nike phantom gx2 or the adidas predator elites?

[@caracal9458]

I think it's about how it fits your foot. The Phantom 2 seem to fit my foot really well whilst the Predator was the same on side and toe but was way too tight across the top of my foot so i went with Phantoms off that (legends were a bit too narrow and the half size up too long in the toe for me) but your feet are prob different so maybe have an idea of 2 or 3 designs and then see which fits you best

[@216kennethcheng]

combining the two is one of the worst decisions, some ppl like the fit and the studs pattern of the GX and some ppl like the Luna. keep the two model and improve it would be a better solution.

[@first4401]

I know they just recently came out but usually all the big pros that wear phantoms should be wearing the gx 2 now but I’m seeing almost every pro stay with the gx 1 maybe there’s a reason for that?

[@feederchua]

Surprised jaynike didnt ask about the reasons behind them totally dropping thr Luna from a women specific boot perspective. Yes its kept spiritually in thr GX 2, but considering the marketing behind the luna 1 and the women specific fit, it would have been interesting to understand why that was dropped - was it female player feedback that they preferred mens fit? Etc

[@unisport]

I think you’ll find the reason for me not asking in the fact that I didn’t ask, if that makes sense 😬 /Jay

[@feederchua]

@unisport 🫠 I give brands too much credit sometimes. Enjoyable and well produced video as always Jay! Looking forward to getting a pair of the AG pros on soon!

[@superfly3628]

Did they ask you to not ask that question?@@unisport

[@lombs_15]

Wich is better though?

[@diogomoreira2197]

will adidas launch an ag version of the new pedstrikes?

[@npc2k]

Adidas ag stud pattern is not great

[@hagodi]

Will they come out in AG ?

[@Kjsingles]

Yes check out his other video on the review, it’s goes more in depth on that

[@MrRob2084]

Maybe I’ll get the AG version if and when it comes out in the US, but the normal FG soleplate big pass

[@dazooly1353]

No ag on this one I guess unfortunately

[@RayPrakarsa]

@@dazooly1353 look at 5:50 Jay use the AG ver.

[@drawwithalex3378]

Can you do the pro ones pls ?

[@diogomoreira2197]

For AG pitches wich one is better? The luna 2 with the ag soleplate or the predator 30 elite low tongue variation? @unisport

[@irishgolfkidt]

Ag boots are always better than fg for artificial grass

[@diogomoreira2197]

will adidas launch an ag version of the new pedstrikes?@@irishgolfkidt

[@Zaxstar007]

the adidas fg is perfect for ag get the preds for sure@@diogomoreira2197

[@npc2k]

Adidas ag stud pattern is slightly more risky compared to Nikes ag stud pattern. Search youtube for Adidas ag soleplate

[@irishgolfkidt]

@@diogomoreira2197 id say so I don’t see why they wouldn’t

[@hopjumpfly]

so gx 1 AG vs gx 2 AG no real change?

[@AntonioDiaz]

PHANTOM 1 all day!

[@ogunozmalkoc805]

Is gx1 better?

[@4.aj_el]

DO AN UPDATE ON THE NEW BALANCE TECKELAS!!

[@AntonioDiaz]

@@ogunozmalkoc805 in my option I would say so but tough to say since I haven’t tried the gx2! So don’t listen to me haha 😂 would need to try both

[@manchukuolover]

I don’t get it

[@oki6930]

Are these wider than the GX?

[@unisport]

To me they feel a bit less snug than the GX 1 - so there does seem to be a bit more volume inside the boot in GX 2 /Jay

[@joseph20301]

The soleplate cracks, already saw 2 pairs

[@miguelsanchez10]

You forgot to say that in your review you said that the sole plate was not good too miss it bro

[@MC-rf4rc]

now it’s possible to wash laces

[@wahyuharjanto17]

Belum beli yg phantom gx udah keluar aja gx 2

[@kevinko2955]

bro blamed tripping on the field because his boots were too grippy 🤣 shit is hilarious lmao. yeah, its the boots fault 😭

[@sergiolopez3965]

Tell him to make them more available for regular people by having their boots cost $100 or less. No boot should be more than $200+.

[@izzy4471]

Tell him to make an alternative to one piece upper boots we need a magista opus like boot! The modern boot has an awful feel need to go back to standard tongue

[@FootbollHighlights]

Hey Jaymike, I was wondering how the OG Phantom GX & latest Mercurials would rank on your Top 5 football boots of 2023 list if they released during 2023?

[@YOUGOTTAGOEDITZ]

We’re you got them I need it 💀🤑🤑🤑

[@poochiepro]

am i the only one who liked the hypervenom 2 😭😭

[@football2.05]

I have question: In fact , I don't really use skill moves when I dribble but I have very good ball handling and good ball control, is it because of this that I will have difficulty dribbling and beat my opponents by 1v1 ?

[@infines5047]

If you have good ball control, beat opponents with things other than skill. Change of pace, body feints, etc.

[@ramirinot6560]

How many boots are released half-baked, just new colors and bells and whistles, but not good enough. I expect more from Nike.

[@PedroHerediaPepe]

1 pair please
