Not often I find myself sitting through a whole 25 min vid about football boots anymore but the way you film and edit these videos makes it hard to click off. Good job mate keep it up

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I appreciate you bro, thank you!

[@CognizantCheddar]

I played a summer season ('23) with Premier 3s. My experiences: - They seem to run a quarter or half-size narrow. Going true-to-size with the Premier 3 turned the toenail on my big toe blue. - The soleplate is thin. Not responsive. This being a boot going for a 20th century style, fit, and feel, I suppose that's to be expected. - Playing on AG, the studs wore down quickly. It's apparent the boot uses lower density material for the soleplate. This is typical of 20th century boots. - The velcro on the tongue doesn't work well enough. To keep the tongue down during play, I had to use rubber bands. - The budget-grade K-leather was soft out of the box, but started to harden from playing on wet AG. It needed routine reconditioning with leather food. Again, this is normal with 20th century boots. I mention it because the higher grade leather on the similarly priced New Balance 442 Pro does not need as much reconditioning. - The leather toebox on mine molded some, but never really stretched. This surprised me.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

THIS IS AWESOME! Thank you for your feedback mate! 🤝

[@RushStriker9]

You have such a great and strong talking point about the neutrality and safety of soleplates and stud patterns. Majority of ppl are not pro and play on AG so that needs to be the forefront. Conical studs and and a solid plate just feel so exceptionally better and have longer term benefits. Nice to hear someone put that out there!

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I appreciate you mate! Conical studs are the way to go I reckon, so easy to do well!

[@CharlyCD93]

I always bring this point up to my mates. I always choose from turf/conical boots when playing on 4th gen turf depending on how I’m feeling.

[@ibrahimel-rafie5239]

I’ve never said this, but I absolutely love the playtest videos, they are so unique because they incorporate a blend of classic training as well as this kind of podcast audio. Keep them coming legend…

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Thank you mate! I appreciate your comment!

[@Azuketsu]

I found your videos a few days ago. Now, when I've been training the past few days, I've just been putting on your vids and listening to them like a podcast. Very enjoyable watch and lowimg along with some of your training when I do as well.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Love that mate! Thanks so much for tuning in!

[@PlanixGaming]

Thanks for your Vids! Love it

[@ArnoldM-cn9ki]

Great review. I agree with the point you made about conical studs!

[@NoahCavanaugh]

🫡 Appreciate you mate!

[@allforone1983]

Another fantastic review

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Thank you mate 🙏

[@CognizantCheddar]

Noah, I appreciate every playtest that you do. Do you still plan to playtest the Ultrezza? Your review video suggested you might have had to reorder the size. I'm thinking about getting a pair, but first I'd prefer to hear your playtest input.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Thank you mate! And yes, getting to the Ultrezza hopefully soon. I reckon I'll try and go down 1/2 size for those - 8.5US for me

[@JR-uc7hs]

i bought these recently and at first i did not like them. I cross shopped them with Copa gloros but hated the heel center of the copa also finding the toungue slightly uncomfortable. I tried the premier 3 right after and instantly felt the difference in terms of touch feel, part of me loves and hates these cleats. After playing them a couple times they have definitely formed better and i definitely recommend conditioning these often it really improves the feel and stretch of the leather. I think you are spot on with the sole plate their really is no responsiveness when running or sprinting its a pretty neutral or flat running feel, but it is definitely consistent all around. I think this was Nikes way of cutting the price down while making sure they were not better than the tiempo 10s in terms of stability. I paid roughly 90$ and to say i still have doubts about the purchase because their were a large amount of cleats that went on sale shortly after (for example predator accuracy .1, speed portal .1, puma ultimate Neymar jr, copa pure 2.1, and the new balance 442 team which is cheaper than the premier and is calf skin instead of kanagroo leather (would love for a review on those🙏). I have not tried the new tiempo but had come from tiempo 7 calfskin cleats and sadly cannot get Copa mundials where i am from as i am a big fan of copas (not the gloro tho). Safe to say these are way better than my tiempo 7s they feel way softer way more connected in terms of touch but were slightly more expensive at the time of purchase. To say the least your reviews are really spot on definitely recommend people watch your reviews before buying probably one of the best reviewers for cleats especially with your play tests!!

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Thank you for your input mate, this is awesome! Your thoughts are valuable here 🫡

[@Andreeesen]

I did some changes to the boots. I did cut of the stitching on the nike swoosh on the inner side of the boot to gain a better feeling for the ball! But still the premier 2 were way better than the 3s

[@NoahCavanaugh]

That's great mate! Hope it feels how you want it to now! 💪

[@RegenTonnenEnte]

Old colourways with K leather are still available, but it's hard to tell when they made the switch exactly.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Love to hear that! Will have to try and find some!

[@JLow6]

Would 100% listen to your Play Test as podcast/audio ASMR. (It’ll be easier to listen to your opinions too as YTube can’t be played in the background)

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I appreciate that mate, thank you! I'll see what I can do

[@byronyeverino7418]

Very comfortable! One of my favorites to wear! N for that price, sheesh 😍

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Love that!

[@byronyeverino7418]

@@NoahCavanaugh I have 2 pairs That kangaroo leather is amazing. Sad that they won’t be making them with the same k leather

[@erebosII]

The Reason why I preferred the Premier III over the New Balance 442 is that the New Balance 442 was too wide around the midfood section. It wasnt even the wide edition and I dont have narrow feet at all but there was a space at the inside of my middle-feet which wasnt comfortable. The Premier III was straight away a top fitting boot which I am playing right now from time to time. The slippage is a problem but it is easily solved with grip socks. Overall, I was aiming for a k-leather boot but now I got stuck to the Mizuno Alpha Elite which are awesome and completely changed my mind on synthetic boots.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Fair enough mate! Thank you for your input! 🔥

[@JVAJ15]

Didn't expect this one

[@NoahCavanaugh]

😈 gotta keep you on your toes

[@Con_a2804]

I have used the phantom gt2 elite and the gx1 elite from the phantom row as my last two models. And was a big fan. As I play on gras and turf as a striker I was wondering if it was worth swithing to the premiers as they are a little bit more neutral than the gx2. What model out of those would you prefer to use?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Love that mate! Both excellent boots. I would just go for the GX2 in AG if I were you, that's my favorite combination

[@DaniellMilton]

Hey Noah, how do the Adidas 11pro Kroos remakes compare to these in terms of overall performance/lockdown & leather quality? I know some people think the 11pro remakes were underwhelming but are they at least clearly better than a basic premier 3? Cheers

[@NoahCavanaugh]

The 11Pro takes the cake every day for me over these from a quality and performance perspective.

[@afifha3iq]

So, im stuck in between nike premier, copa mundial & the umbro speciali pro. Idk what to choose. Please advise me 😅

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Whichever FITS you the best! All three are decent!

[@flakers1337]

u can get morelia 2 elites for the same price as the premier3 here in europe, and the choice is easy

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Fair enough mate!

[@TheGivemethattaco]

Such a shame Nike is getting rid of all their leather. Nike cleats have always fit me the best and Tiempos are my go-to model. Just bought a pair of Tiempo 5s on eBay, but once these are gone I’m going to have to switch brands.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Definitely mate, they're going to miss out on a huge portion of the market!

[@Coachrocket]

You would not believe it, Noa, but I could not play in then on AG surfaces. Even made a video about it. Came to me as an absolute shock. Maybe I did myself a disservice cause I play in adler yatagarasu and mizuno morelia neo 3 pro AG when it comes to artificial grass. After wearing those, wearing Nike Premier 3 on AG was killing my joints. Different story on short FG grass. Did you feel any discomfort on AG in then or it is just me ?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Fair enough mate! No discomfort for me yet no

[@Coachrocket]

@NoahCavanaugh well just my luck then. Great video though. Thanks for the review

[@dondonoplimo]

What if nike made these into customisable boots, like a Premier upper with a Tiempo elite soleplate? What do you think?🤔

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Pretty cool I reckon!

[@JVAJ15]

Hey Noah, what do work in to buy 3 boots each week?😅

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I don't buy 3 boots a week, but I appreciate your inquiry 🤝

[@FUT_92]

Is the sole plate separating from the upper? These are the last ones I’m going to try. In between them and a couple of mizunos wide models I tried out. Just wondering how these would last compared to the mizunos.

[@CognizantCheddar]

Mine has started separating at the toe from playing on AG, and the lack of soleplate rivet at that spot is concerning.

[@FUT_92]

@@CognizantCheddar oh ok, well I guess technically these are FG cleats. Hopefully they’ll last on FG use only. I picked up a pair, they’re definitely not as comfortable as the mizuno monarcida I tried on, but the sole plate is a bit wider which will help with stability. I really wanna stick with the Monarcidas but I need stability more than anything.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Nothing so far mate!

[@FUT_92]

@@NoahCavanaugh good to know! Thought it looked like it was on the video.

[@FUT_92]

@@CognizantCheddar update: I tried them on at the store and they seem to fit fine. Brought a pair home in a different color but same size and they are painfully crushing my toes. You think the leather will stretch enough for it to be comfortable? The pair I tried on at the store was a display so maybe they’ve been broken in through people trying them on.

[@yuvanshanchan6737]

well i wore it for 6 matches, it's good but ofc now it's very dirty as it's gold and white so noah can you please tell me how to clean it properly to make it shiny??

Can we wear turf shoes in FG pitch

[@NoahCavanaugh]

You totally can, but you'll probably slip around a lot

[@abmeight08]

I've tried the Premier 3 and it does not fit those with super wide fit. I wore a size 7.5UK on Copa Mundial and can't even fit the Premier 3 on 8.5UK.

[@CognizantCheddar]

I also had problems going true-to-size with Premier 3. They are narrower than Premier 1/2.

[@loganl4204]

@@CognizantCheddar same here. I wear US7/UK6.5 for Copa Mundial and US8.5/UK7.5 for this Premier 3.

Really comprehensive playtest I feel. Unfortunately for me, I feel that the Premier is far too flimsy for my liking. Good video.
