1 MONTH REVIEW | Adidas Predator Elite FT

[@SpenRDA]

First off, I’ve worn these for 7 games now & and loving them. I play exclusively on AG and haven’t had any issues with the soleplate or durability. The fg studs have also been tolerable on ag. Luckily, these fit my heel pretty well, and I haven’t had a problem with lockdown when wearing grip socks. Overall, Adidas knocked it out of the park. And the FT model is just major vibez 😅

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Love that mate! Thanks for your feedback!

[@raiden6513]

So you play with fg on ag?

[@SpenRDA]

@@raiden6513 With some boots, yes. I can’t exactly recommend it, bc fg boots aren’t designed for ag, but it’s technically doable. Experience will vary by boot, person, and quality of ag, of course.

[@raiden6513]

@@SpenRDA would you consider puma future ultimate fg/ag playable on ag?

[@mursyidhassan3373]

Does the upper stretch width wise?

[@travispoker]

The thumbnail game is getting better and better and better. Loving it.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I appreciate you mate!

[@eraysonmez8]

These 'gesture' thumbnails are the worst. Stop doing it.

[@Jimmy581]

I bought 44 2/3 as my crazyfast, but they were so tight they gave my foot nerve damage and permanent purple big toes. Never experienced so tight shoes in my life ever...

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Sorry to hear that mate - hopefully another boot will be better!

[@AdamAmer-t6v]

I’m going to get the red blue and white version with the tongue what a boot

[@NoahCavanaugh]

CLASS 😎

[@derbyyank13]

Had been waiting for this! These are so good!!

[@NoahCavanaugh]

‼️ SO GOOD!

[@Forniyerelatable]

Thanks bro for the review hit helped me decide if I should buy them ( I brought the one s you showcased in the vid )

[@NoahCavanaugh]

No worries!

[@Sorensen009]

Thanks for making these amazing reviews Noah, please keep doing it forever! ⚽

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Thanks mate 🫡

[@terr228]

I love this boot, this is very cool and comfortable. One of the issues is too stable using on AG pitch compare with the Nike AG sole plate. Sometime will make your knee feel pain after play at the AG pitch.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Fair enough mate!

[@suelo9087]

Loved these enough to pick them up!!! Took me a while to love them though, coming from the crazy fast plus upper to this was a tough change. I had to use the shoes many times with loose laces enough to break them in, even when I tighten the laces I get some sole pain. Overall I love these and can’t wait to get the roteiro version. Also the sizing I got a bit of space but tight fit is a better choice!

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Glad you like them!

[@GSicKz]

Thanks for the review! Will you also review the 2G/3G outsole version of the predator?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

We'll see mate, I doubt it though! I've heard good things 🤝

[@AKenzero]

Predator lz were the last predator boots before the elites that I liked.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Me too 😎

[@DanielGonzalez-ut5je]

just got these, review helped a lot. thanks and keep making videos they are awesome 👏🏻

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Lovely mate! Glad you're enjoying them

[@miqplayz7438]

Would u prefer the gx1 or gx2 now that you’ve experienced both?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

GX2 fit, GX1 soleplate (FG).

[@colincoenderman6134]

Noah, don't you think the studs are too long for artificial grass? I personally thought the studs were too long and too dangerous for artificial grass, so I unfortunately returned them. and do you recommend the mizuno? because, like you, many shoes dont fit my heel well and I love the secured fit in the heel area. Sorry for the long comment 😮‍💨😅

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Nope! As I discussed in BOTH my play test and this video, I find them to be suitable for FG and AG pitches. Mizuno is great 🔥

[@1CRU1]

Adidas Predators in that color and blue sold out all over the USA in size 11. I can’t find them anywhere

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Dang! I'd just google it and see what pops up, might have to special order from overseas.

[@irradiasian]

Long time listener first time caller: What is the difference in the fit between the laced and laceless versions? 1:1 or is it a bit wider/higher in the toebox of the laced versions? Thanks for all you do and you've cemented your place in my boot reviewer rotation I watch :) As a NYer, hope Rochester wasn't too bad for you (not my fav city but there are worse places, I reckon) haha.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

1:1 mate, exactly the same minus the tongue folding down over the top of the FT model 🤝

[@coreymitchell1194]

I’m on my third pair of these already! This colourway, predstrike and the new Euro colourway. Absolutely love them, although like you’ve said, the break in time does take a while for me.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Love that mate, glad to hear they're working well for you!

[@khelgarironfist3301]

Does the toebox break in and stretch a bit as well? The upper is kind of pressing on my big toe, i expected these to be roomier. White non-ft elite.

[@coreymitchell1194]

@@khelgarironfist3301 hi mate, from my experience I had no issues with the toe box, I only had tightness from the inside and outside of the boot. This goes after and hours worth of use👊

[@JonathanRodriguez-nz9nw]

The Roteiro is just a country mile better than any of the other ones, i also have the Roteiros they made for the Euros

[@jcjccjjrjdjd]

Ive tried them which one should i get? I tried 44 2/3 and 45 1/3. 45 1/3 is loose but not that loose. 44 2/3 is tight but not that.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

They'll stretch just a tiny bit, so I'd go for the size that's a big tight out of the box

[@timbarwalde1804]

Hey I am a goalie and can‘t decide between the predator with the ft or without. I just don‘t want to slip as a a goalkeeper in my boots.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

You'll be just fine with either mate, it's more of an aesthetic choice

[@connorthomas9483]

Not even that interested in the preds but your content is always of the best quality 🤩 cant wait for the vapor 16/superfly 10 vid, hopefully they fit you 🥲

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I appreciate you mate! We'll see on the Vapor 16! Looking forward to trying them

[@pouyasafa3115]

Do you prefer the regular elite version over the FT version due to the lockdown issue?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

No, I like the FT because of the style and swag

[@TheCarebear360]

Love the videos Noah - how does the lockdown on these compare to the laceless model?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I have lockdown sections in BOTH 1 month review videos mate - compare!

[@TheCarebear360]

@@NoahCavanaugh Didn’t see a 1 month review on the laceless model, only the play test video

[@raamizshuttari7364]

i remember a while back u said u would do another 1 month review for the mizuno alpha elite when u got a bigger size in the black color way did u end up doing it i couldnt find it

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I didn't mate, they didn't fit as well as I thought they would. Did the initial unboxing and review but didn't do anything else.

[@stix39]

Im looking to get a pair of these, but how long on average do you think the break in time is? Love your videos.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

2-4 hours of proper wear time I reckon

[@Onfeet.review]

Will there be a one month review of the Predator Roteiro?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Definitely!

[@serbalgg]

I literaly bought the turf versions of these in blue/red colorway and they are so stiff. Thinking of returning them. For $140 I expected more tbh.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Dang! That's no good! Probably a different upper mate

[@victorrangel14]

Gx2 makes the inside of my insole bleed from both feet. I tried 2 sizes and same thing, they fold in that area and cook my feet so bad.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Damn! That's no good bro, maybe not the best boot for you? 😅

[@klipk7296]

Are the rubber grip elements on the upper showing any signs of wear?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Not so far!

[@Jimmy581]

42,4k subs. I remember when you had like 500

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Thanks for being here boss 🫡

[@elfenomeno-iw3dz]

Would you pick Adidas Predator Elite or Asics Ds Light x Fly 5?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

X fly 5

[@lrespi9727]

Could you maybe do a one month review of one of the skechers boots?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Yep! Already on the way

[@diinoyt7498]

i find it kinda weird because of the tongue, it seems to me that it doesnt protect the start of the upper foot part. Is it true or am I just skeptic. (i play defense)

[@NoahCavanaugh]

The ONLY thing the tongue does is give the boots a more retro look. Other than that, there is absolutely zero practical function and it WILL NOT protect your foot properly. A more padded touch? sure. But no protection

[@Ricardo-kj8tq]

Hey Noah I plan on buying the predators but my left foot is a 10 in size and my right foot is a 9.5 what do you recommend going for the size 10 or the size 9.5

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I'd definitely go with a 10.

[@hendrasantoso4925]

Hey Noah. What do u think about the hg/ag version? Is there any difference?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Haven't tried it mate, but it looks decent

[@DarthVader0912]

Does the tongue really add any difference towards feeling, touch and grip, I have the normal laced elites and I wanna know if the tongue really adds anything towards the boot other than nostalgia and good looking?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

A small bit on the touch end! Nothing substantial though. It's not gonna make you a better player 😂

[@dadda6450]

Hey Noah! Would you prefer the predators elite ft over morelias 2 MIJ? considering they are the same price. thank you!

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Morelia 2 is usually more expensive depending on where you live mate, and they're VERY different, one is a plush leather feel and one is more synthetic modern feel

[@anthonymendozajr19]

what are your game day boots?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I switch it up every week!

[@khelgarironfist3301]

Does the toebox break in and stretch a bit as well? The upper is kind of pressing on my big toe, i expected these to be roomier. White non-ft elite.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Yep!

[@jph16]

For ag pitches, would you recommend the predator ft, the gx2 or the vapor 15?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

If all of those boots you mentioned are the FG versions, go for the Predator.

[@snoppie8258]

Hello noah do u recommend any products to clean you’re football boots?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Water and a sponge!

[@bryanbautista6549]

Hi Noah! What’s your original shoe size in sneakers? Thanks! In US sizing and EU plz.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Completely depends on the shoe mate, usually somewhere between 10.5-11

[@gabr131s]

Hey Noah. Wondering if you have tried the 4g AG version? I’ve heard it’s really similar just slightly shorter studs and slightly heavier.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I haven't mate, no

[@gabr131s]

@@NoahCavanaugh ah ok all good!

[@K32535]

Hey Noah, I’m deciding whether to get mizuno Morelia neo iv or alpha elite. Would you be able to provide me a comparison of these two boots ( I want something that sort of helps with my acceleration while being able to get control of the ball). Really appreciate your videos

[@vancekrutikov68]

Not Noah but have experience with both boots, and i think the best way to compare these two would to say that the neo iv is the boot for you if like like the leather padded touch and a more adjustable fit due to the nature of leather. Very lightweight but not as responsive of a sole plate, which makes it more comfortable but less snappy feeling. The alpha has a decent synthetic, I would say that it’s better than the adidas speed boots but not as good as the current mercurials. More responsive, has a very great heel feeling, best in class imo. I don’t care for the upper with the cage part underneath, but still an amazing pair of football boots

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Hi mate, refer to the other comment on this thread, I agree with what @vancekrutikov68 said. Generally speaking as well, no boot will improve your acceleration or control of the ball, that's a YOU thing 🤝

[@owenhalley9219]

hey noah, class video. i was wondering if you knew anything about the f50+ model that is 300$?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I do! Review coming soon mate 🤝

[@Krexy_98]

is good predator for winger?i like predator but I don't know if I should buy it

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Only if you FIT in them mate. Your position has nothing to do with the boots you wear

[@kari1312]

make a review about which is better xcrazy fast or mercurials.

Crazyfast doesn't exist anymore mate, it's now the new F50!

No mate

[@Sandu_111]

Do you think these predator fg studs are as agressive as the new f50 studs. I want to buy the f50’s but cant get the ag ones so do you think the f50 fg studs are too long and agressive for ag?

[@AK14075]

Hello mate, I can try get you a pair from the UK if you would like 😁

[@ajiteshtalwar787]

The f50 stud pattern makes it okay for ag , I have one it isn’t as aggressive as the mercurials or the new puma

They'll be totally fine mate 🤝
