Greeting from China, thanks for your great review! It's very rare for a boot reviewer to take a whole month and actually finishing the whole break in process to do a holistic review, that's very nice and can really help us, because unlike pros, we don't change boots too often. I do love the upper of Magista, so I'm very excited about the new AG version! (cuz most Chinese pitches are very short artificial grass) Can't wait to see more reviews you made!

After watching your vid and waiting for the DF vid, I just couldn’t wait any longer. I bought these in an 8.5 which is half a size smaller due to them running a touch long. It’s perfect, about a quarter thumb gap. I’ve had issues with 8.5s being too tight and 9s being too big due to my wide foot. I’m thinking I have a similar foot shape to you. These instantly felt amazing out of the box. Can’t wait to use them!

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Thank you mate! I appreciate that 🤝 I'd say be careful with these - the toe box sits quite a bit lower than the Tiempo, and I worry that if your orthotic insoles are significantly thicker than the stock Nike ones, you might crush your toes.

[@varelaiazul817]

The Gripknit is the star of the show. But the whole package is a very natural, distraction-less, and comfortable boot. I managed to get mine at launch, when they arrived I was very pleased with them. I have medium to narrow feet, I was home in them the instant I slipped them on. So far I have only wore them indoors. From the light juggling and slight touches, I could immediately notice the extra grip. It was just right, and without the need of any rubber elements. That would’ve added bulk and stiffness to this thin, pliable upper. I haven’t smiled so hard for a boot since the Vapor 8 and Superfly 4. A lot people are going to really like these.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Fantastic! They're such a good pair!

Hi Noah, have you ever broken your right ankle? It looked like your right ankle is a little different shaped vs your left ankle. Great video about the boot, I was just curious about it, so thank you for the in depth information.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Nope!

[@EvilestGem]

Noah, no disrespect to you or the other popular KZbinrs who review boots but can I ask have you ever given a boot a low grade? Also, could you maybe do a video where you recap and rate all the boots you've covered because I'd love to see that. Someone put up a post on one of Unisport's videos commenting that, and I quote "My favourite thing about a new boot coming out is you get to hear all the bad points about old boots that they didn't want to say while they could still sell them 😂" and I think you all fall into this statement, which is why I would love to see a comparison because I have to say I completely agree with this statement! It does appear that you're all just basically peddling new products which is rather sad.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Hey mate, based on this comment it really sounds like you actually haven't looked deeper into my channel. That's a shame, because: 1) Any boot you DON'T see a 1 Month Review of means they're bad and I don't even consider wearing them after the initial review. 2) Look at some of the thumbnails of my reviews (or watch the videos too), and you'll find I don't care for a lot of boots on the market. 3) I'm not like Unisport in that I don't need to sell any boot to you. I have nothing to sell you, and I don't care if you decide to buy them after my review. All my opinions WHEN THE BOOTS ARE REVIEWED are as honest as I can be. 4) Even if I liked every boot, great! That's MY opinion. You don't have to agree with me nor do I have to say something is bad if I don't believe that to be true. If you'd like to talk shit about any particular boot, start your own channel and just do reviews on bad football boots. They exist, trust me. I've reviewed them. 🤝

[@EvilestGem]

@@NoahCavanaugh You're right I haven't looked into your videos. I was going on an assumption and I didn't have time to go through all your videos to determine whether that was true. It was just an educated guess which presumed was right, which is why I suggested a summary that would show scores etc to see if I'm right. But what you're saying is that if you don't review them then they aren't good? Would be refreshing to see reviews based on pure honesty and seeing some actual criticism or negative scoring rather than have everything painted in soft light.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

@@EvilestGem Perhaps I wasn't clear. "2)" in my last message refers to all the reviews I've done up on my channel that are negative. Thumbnails like "Nike, Just Do Better", or "DON'T BUY". All of my reviews are as honest as they come, because as I said: I don't get boots from brands = I don't have an obligation to say anything nice about them.

[@tile.2286]

First off, Great review! I’m surprised to hear that these are less wide than the HyperVenom 3s I thought in photos and videos that they looked almost identical in width if not a bit roomier. A bit disappointing to hear they may even be thinner than the GT2s as I had quite a hard time with those having to go up half a size compared to the HyperVenom 3s and hoped these would be more similar to the HyperVenom 3s in terms of fit in the forefoot. If you have any experience with the PhantomVisions how would you say these compare to those particularly to fit in the forefoot?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

They’re about equal width to the GT2 but much more flexible around your feet. They molded really well to my feet. They fit similar to phantom visions but are a bit slimmer in the forefoot. Not by much, but a bit less volume

Hi Noah thanks for the review. I am definitely interested in getting a pair of these. I have had issues with boots in the past due to me putting most amounts of pressure on the outsoles of my feet. This forces me to avoid boots with bladed studs on the outsides (boots like vapors, phantom gts, etc). I, like you, am a huge fan of the hyper venom 3 elite low cut (my favorite boot ever). Would you say that these boots are similar to the hypervenom 3’s? And do you think I would have any issues with pressure points on the outsoles of these? Thanks and keep up the great work!

[@NoahCavanaugh]

They're a bit similar, yeah! I don't have any issues with the FG or the AG plate on both FG and AG surfaces, so I'd say you'd probably be just fine! 🔥

Hey Noah, My phantom venom are size 11.5 and they are the perfect size but I tried on an 11.5 in the phantom gx and they are good width wise but length wise they are like a finger long , do you think I should get a size 11 or try a different boot or just stick with the 11.5? (I’m flat footed btw , so my foot is wider mid foot)

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I would say go to an 11 because the width will break in just fine. My advice to people is always to go and get the right size lengthwise first! 🤝

[@alexmaya205]

Same here bro my usual size is 8.5 in mercurials and they fit perfect but I tried the DF versions regular size and there was a big gap length wise. I tried half size down and they felt good. Will the low cut versions half size down feel the same?

[@BAYBOYGAME]

Noah would you say the Hypervenom 3 are good for Wide feet and if so would you still choose them over any Nike pair nowadays..?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Yes and yes! 🔥

[@Eddie-pc7lo]

Hey Noah I’m wanting to get these boots but I’m not sure if I should go down half a size due to the toe box or not what do your think

[@NoahCavanaugh]

True to size mate! If you don't fit in them True to size, I would go for a different boot!

[@BT-qy1pr]

Love the in depth analysis. Your true to size is measured with socks or barefoot? How does the Phantom GX compare with the Tiempo in terms of length and width?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Socks are only a fraction of a cm, so I don't think it matters either way - especially if they are thinner socks. Both Tiempo and GX are true to size - the GX MAYBE fits 1/4 size long at most for some foot shapes. It's all going to depend on how well you fit in either.

[@OptimusSWE-ew8ji]

What position are u playing, wondering because i would like to know what position it is best for. Myself i am a ST/winger. I mean the shoes

[@NoahCavanaugh]

The shoes have nothing to do with the position I play bro, it's all about what FITS me the best. Same goes for you!

[@kdharantej7314]

great review

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Thank you mate!

[@gulerordekulu]

Noah i have a question for you i am stuck between gx and ultra venom can you help me ? please

[@NoahCavanaugh]

IF you fit in both, go with the GX, they're cheaper and easier to find

[@liamrios884]

Hey Noah. Just wondering if the waxy upper will wear off or if it will stay grippy?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Should stay grippy mate, the waxy texture is built into the upper 🔥

[@clarkgray4109]

I have noticed the grip degrade over time just a bit but it is still grippy.

[@georgeserrano1805]

Hey Noah my foot is in a weird size rn. I had to sell my phantom venoms that were a size 9 bc I felt pressure on the ends of my toes but 9.5 shoes have a little bit of dead space, so my foot is naturally an in-between size. My question is which size do u think I should order since there aren’t any stores I can try them on before buying

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Probably a 9 mate 👍🏼

[@plusultra1777]

What does true to size mean? Does it mean that if you are size 9US in football boots, you are also size 9US on your casual, running, formal shoes, etc.?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

True to size on football boots mate! I wear a 9US across the board unless a boot fits long or short (only about 2 models). I wear a 9.5US in most other shoes

[@francescoviale6591]

You thinck that this phantom gx elite are better that the tiempo 9 legend elite ?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

For my feet, yes 👍🏼

[@GL-ws7kp]

I just got these and I love them very much but I have a very big problem, my right foot fits so good I love it but my left one there is so much space like a good thumb of gap I can really feel it when playing. Is it just my feet or is this nikes fault?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

As long as the left and right boot are the same size mate, it probably means your feet are different sizes. That's fairly common though, and you might just have to put some paper or stuffing at the end of the toe area on your left side, OR if you can manage, get 2 different pairs and one of them can fit your left side and one can fit your right side 🤝

[@tucu31]

So,my problem is that i bought a pair of superfly 9 pro in my usual 11 size us,and they literally make me feel like i don t have blood flow in my feet,and they are way too tight,don t know if that s how they are supposed to fit until broken in,so i was thinking of buying elites(i heard they are wider) and going half a size up and try to break them in because i heard a lot of good things about that air zoom tech,even tho i m not that quick but i think their responsiveness would help me accelerate faster.On the other hand there are the phantom gx in town,but i never tried a phantom,and i heard only good things about them,but i don t know if i should get my usual size 11 or go with 11.5 to make sure they fit well,and i don t know if their lack of responsiveness would make me slower or something.Hope i didn t make u angry with this comm and sorry about my grammar(english is not my first language)

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I'd go with an 11 in the Vapor Elites AND the Phantom GX! I reckon that will give you the best fit 🤝 The GX will stretch/mold more around your foot for sure

[@jackjones5223]

I just wanted to know, I’ve just got a pair of these and after about 4 hours play time out of the box I’ve got hot spots on the back of my heels and it’s coming from the top of the padding in the heel, I just nested to know how can I break the heel in because the upset is super soft as is ?
