Mizuno's recent financial report for this past financial quarter shows that Mizuno football ⚽ boots sales more than doubled. So they must be doing something right as they are starting to successfully expand their brand in football ⚽

[@andrewpalmer1873]

Must be the volt 😉

[@chanchaniceman]

Over the years they’ve got a lot of recognition and hype which I say given due to what many players that love football have absolutely raves about them along with many like us come from Noah,Josh(Sr4u),JayMike,Halt’s boots and many more will rave them.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

For sure! Definitely a great thing to see after such a long time going "underrated"

[@dimiyou17]

​@@NoahCavanaugh do you have anyolans on reviewing turf shoes. My league is only turf league so it would help to get some reviews for those kind of boots. Keep up the good work

Was waiting for this one. Currently have the non beta version in the sick new white and red colourway and they are so far the best boots I've ever tried. Great vid

[@kimpymannen]

did u go true to size or ½ down in the non beta?

[@jmarcon0989]

​@@kimpymannenI went half size down and that fit perfectly. I was lucky enough to try a size range, and my true size US 10 felt a little too roomy at the toe. With US 9.5 I felt I had a tad bit of room which I honestly prefer, and it felt more snug to my foot. So from my experience I recommend going half a size down.

[@kimpymannen]

@@jmarcon0989 ty!

[@brandonlee4957]

Def go a half size down

[@tn7328]

Bought these (the white ones). Was slightly stiff out the box but have broken in nicely after a game and training session. Best boots I have. Feel so light and nimble in there. Feel on the ball is excellent and my touch just seems to be better with these. The fit in the midfoot doesn't perfectly wrap my foot and it has a very high arch for my flat foot. I am interested in trying the non beta. I had to change the insole which makes it wearable for me. Works great on Ag (no dragging feet/friction). My main gripe is durability. Mizuno's website says these are suitable for AG. After 1 game and training session, some there is a slight sole separation on my outer right foot and some of the seams are coming loose at the end. I can even see it in your boots in the video (the seams). Will see how it goes and might return unfortunately.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

That's good to hear mate! Love to hear it. Bummed to hear they didn't last very long for you.

[@soulstart89]

Interesting take. My width of my feet are 2E. Head to a ASICS store and get your feet measured, it’s well worth it. You will learn how one foot is always longer than the other. My experience differs slightly to you. I just couldn’t get on with the neo’s (all versions). For me The best fitting and performance in game situations are the ASICS ds light x-fly mij (love these) and the adlers. The morelia 2 are amazing but even with grip socks after 15 mins my feet slide in the boot. I’ve tried 28cm (my size) and 27.5cm, didn’t make a difference. I think that ASICS and Adler just gave me the experience of not thinking about what’s on my feet. Cutting was fine (I play wing and cam) in both no sliding or movement. Doing Great work Noah your reviews and session vids will really help people gather the info on whether the boots suits requirements.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

That's great info for people to know, thanks for sharing mate!

[@xqc9573]

I would have like to love them as much as you but mine had so problem. The soleplate and the leather separate from heach other after like 10h of play. But overal I really like the feel and everythin about those boots. Nice vid as always thank you !

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Bummer mate! Sorry to hear that

[@chanchaniceman]

While I prefer the Morelia Neo 3/4 non beta version but man Morelia Neo 3/4 beta is absolutely just the bomb be it the elite or MIJ version plus the midfit just works well. On the build quality,like honestly my morelia neo 2 I bought in late 2019 has lasted me a good 2-3 years that’s considering how thing these are. Forget the Morelia 2 I had from 2020,even the Neo line is just built so well.

Hi Noah, great video! Just wanted to quickly get your opinion on the new vs old tekela boots. The old gen ones are on sale at the moment on pro direct for 126£, are the new generation ones worth the extra 100£ in upgrades or will the old generation ones be very similar ?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Just go for the old gen ones - go up 1/2 size!

[@duaneswaby622]

Nice review, Noah. These are so cool but I wish they were priced better in North America. They’re not $100 better than an Adler Horenso for me, for example.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

That's fair! Try @tokyofootball.sg on IG - they usually have good pricing

[@andreyladin5162]

Nice and useful review. Compared to the Vapor 15 Elite, are these boots wider in the midfoot? Thanks

[@NoahCavanaugh]

About the same width in the midfoot straight out of the box, but this material will mold and stretch a bit more than Vapor 15's will.

[@andreyladin5162]

@@NoahCavanaughthanks

[@jahugo6228]

I found that i needed to go down half a size UK for the perfect fit on these.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Fair enough! 🤝 Thanks for that feedback!

[@mchan2639]

Another super video. Any reason why you didn't choose to test the non beta version longer or is it actually similar (apart from the closer wrap as mentioned in your video) as long as it fits your foot? I fit in the non-beta version only as my wide foot doesnt slip in/fit throught the opening of the beta version. Once its in, the length and width is perfect (and I actually can go uk 6.5 with the non-beta neo 4 vs uk 7.5 for the tiempo legend 9)

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I'll be doing an entire other series on the non-beta mate. You'll get both not just one 😂

Hi been asking around and can’t seem to find an answer. Question In a 80/20 training program using a stationary bike. A HIIT for the 20% portion of training is done in zone 4/5. Can HIIT be substituted with the Tabata cycling routine I find it hard to stay at 95% of my max bpm when doing tabatas / all out - but I did read basic bpm formula could have a variance of +/- 20. Trying to improve fitness / lower bpm when sprinting on the pitch what the best heart rate training routine for that? Thanks! I can send you cash if you want for a response i couldn’t seem to book a one on one with you on your website and my email address was invalid for some reason when I tried to use the contact link you had up

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Hi mate, I'm not a personal trainer so I can't give a concrete answer for this. I'd try to contact an S+C coach that will have more specific numbers they can give you.

[@AMsports19]

I'm just waiting for them to release these in a light blue color

[@NoahCavanaugh]

That would be unreal!

[@lmodric19]

[@br9ndons]

i want these so bad but i’m unsure in what size to get, i got some TEKELA MAGIQUE FG V4+ recently cause i was looking for a cheaper option but they fit to tight around the toe box and hurt my big toe, i got them in a 11. But if the mizuno morelia Neo 4 beta fit wider should i get those ina 11 ? or if they fit tighter should i get a 11/5. Help would be awesome, thanks, love your vids!

[@NoahCavanaugh]

If the tekela was too narrow for you mate, I'd probably stay away from these. They're a bit more on the thin side comparatively

[@BigDeepz]

all soccer shoes are way too narrow for normal feet, I have heard that mizunos are great for wide feet so I think you should give it a chance if you want to.

[@teteleroi]

Hi Noah! Quick question, would you prefer these or those white copa pure .1 you reviewed?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

These 100%

[@galford4793]

Adler leather boots are better? In this Neo boots I don't like the difference in ball feel between tip and middle of the shoes. Leather should also be on the inside - like in Tiempo Legend 9 👌

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Depends what you're looking for mate, these Neo 4s are much more focused and purpose built, whereas the Adler boots are a more classic look and feel

[@Jesus-J]

Hey man quick question, i tried on the Phantom GX 2's for a size 10 they fit perfectly i'm looking at these following boots and just wondering what sizing i should pick as in true to size or 0.5 smaller! I have very neutral feet so just worried about length not width! I'm also playing a winger and striker postion and wasn't sure if one is better than the other i'm under the impression any boot can be play anywhere! Thankyou in advance!! Mizuno Morelia Neo 4 Beta Muzuno Morelia 2 MIJ

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I'd go true to size on both of them mate! The Neo 4 series fits slightly longer than the Morelia 2 does, so you might have a tiny bit of extra room at the toes. I don't find that to be an issue but if you do, you can always go down 1/2 size on the Neo 4s.

[@Jesus-J]

@@NoahCavanaugh You're a legend man i ended up getting a pair of the Neo 3 Betas MIJ and went 0.5 lower in size! i was so close to getting the Morelia 2's in Blue because that colour is just stunning

[@crux.2958]

do these boots work with wide feet. around roughhly a year ago, i commented on ur vid for vapor 15 elites asking if it was wide footed and you gave me your answer lol

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Decent, but not the best! I'd go for the non-beta version

[@himynameiselijah]

Hey mate, I can’t recall if you mentioned it in the video but what is the size comparison for these compared to say Puma King Ultimate? I would like to try a pair but don’t have anywhere I can try them on where I live. Would love a roundabouts of sizing difference. I am a size 11US in Kings

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I wear a 9 in both, but the Neo 4 beta fits a tad longer. I can't go down 1/2 size for these because of the width and the Pumas don't fit me at all because of how narrow they are.

[@himynameiselijah]

@@NoahCavanaugh thank you mate, I’ll probably go half a size smaller because they measure long

[@goingthroughitgettingthrou1212]

Did going down a half size work for you. I’m a 11us for the most part with a narrow foot shape

[@MiguelMorales-on1dz]

I have a question. I tried the new balance 442 v2 size 9us should I get these the same or go half a size down?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

same size I reckon!

[@turri2862]

which one do you believe would last more on ag these, the xfly pros/5 limited or the morelia ii? I'm mainly concerned about sole separation

[@NoahCavanaugh]

All of them have great durability mate, can't really go wrong!

[@Chinev]

Do I need to go a size down? I am size 9.5 US adidas copa. Is the Mizuno size 27.5 the right fit?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

You can if you have thinner feet, I would recommend true to US size though

[@dodee2556]

Hey, great vids. I had a question im struggling to understand. Neo 4 Made in Japan, is there an Alpha version of it? Or just Beta/Elite? In all honesty, im struggling with mizuno labelling. Is Alpha just for the sergio ramos line? And does not apply to morelia? If so, whats the highest end Morelia 4 neo, money can buy? Is it the beta made in Japan? Id really appreciate a list in terms of what Mizuno consider the best line, not neccessary model, but just there ranking of alpha, beta, elite etc

[@NoahCavanaugh]

No mate, the Alpha and the Morelia Neo 4 are different models alltogether. The Neo 4 and Neo 4 Beta are very similar, with slight differences to them. I've got reviews on all 3! Mizuno have: - Alpha (synthetic upper) - Morelia 2 (all leather "classic" model) - Morelia Neo 4 (1/2 leather, 1/2 synthetic leather) - Morelia Neo 4 Beta (1/2 leather, 1/2 synthetic and knit)

[@dodee2556]

⁠@@NoahCavanaughthank you, so i think my misunderstanding relates to thinking the term alpha refers to the quality of the boot. However it is in fact the name of the boot. Whilst Beta Japan relates to the quality build of the Neo. I assume in terms of quality, Made in Japan Elite Pro Club/Select Is that the order?

[@dodee2556]

Ive just discovered another anomaly, that further confuses. Ive spotted there is also a Morelia Neo 4 B made in japan and a Morelia Neo 4 Beta made in Japan! What (if any) is the difference between the B and the Beta. It can be found on the UK Mizuno site. These naming conventions are not helping anyone!!

[@aidanmackin4183]

I know they are two different types of boots, but which is overall the better boot between these and the predator elites ?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

That completely depends on what FITS you the best mate, both are quality. If you want the absolute best possible build quality, Mizuno is king.

[@HungNguyen_1601]

Do you still recommend going half size down on the Morelia Neo non-Beta? I have normal width feet. Are you going to review the non-Beta as well?

[@jmarcon0989]

I went down half a size in the non beta and they fit perfectly

[@henrybennett6432]

Same here, wear a 9.5 in Nike but 9 in Mizuno and the fit is perfect.

Starting to lose track of the labels for Mizuno, can anyone list them out based on what Mizuno consider most prestigious to least. I currently have Mizuno Alpha A Made in Japan FG. As far as i know it is the ‘best’ in the Alpha range. However, looking at Neos as i really like the look of them. White Morelia Neo IV B Japan. I assume it being a Beta there is also an Alpha? If so, i cannot find any? Or is the Beta the most ‘elite’ pair Mizuno have released in the neo 4? Essentially im confused with the beta/alpha/elite labelling. Whilst Made in Japan is pretty self explanatory. I just cannot find Alpha Made in Japan Neo 4 in white.
