"We are not in the Premier League for that reason..." 😂 I love you're serious about soccer and serious about content creation, but not so serious that you can't joke about things.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Oh yeah no reason not to joke sometimes 😂 Gotta keep it real!

[@andrewpalmer1873]

Literally, these play test videos are all the evidence I need for the difference in ability between me and Noah. I can barely breathe during a session much less do a whole video with me talking as I strike a ball.

[@shubhpinjani]

Really excited to see the review for Elite AG 2G/3G model. I'm pretty sure many of us are waiting for that review. Love from India, great work.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

We'll see about it mate! Not sure I'll be able to get those in yet

[@andrewpalmer1873]

Agree but with this caveat, is it worth getting the 2g/3g as a pro? Or is it too flat and dense and not aggressive enough to actually play in?

[@liammobbs327]

These are incredible, I have the regular laced model and it all just feels perfectly put together. Upper, last and soleplate, weight and support are perfect. I haven’t loved an adidas boot like these since the 2014 F50’s. As a bonus I scored my first hat-trick debuting these straight into a match so they’ll always be special for me.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

That’s fantastic mate 🔥 what a game!

[@commanderwukong]

Love the initial review on these bro, on another hand, Noah i did not realize how smooth you are with the ball at your feet man, great dribbling and i will definitely be stealing these drills brotha, have a great week !

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I appreciate you mate!

[@derbyyank13]

Remarkable. Awesome video, I love these boots so much, I had a great time in them as well so I am glad to see you are enjoying them as well.

🫡❤️ thank you!

[@LionelMessi.TheGreatestEver]

This is actually a really really great video… knowledge and passion all in one person probs to you bro💫💪🏼ordered the fully black ones myself

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I appreciate you brother! 🤝

[@_gary_]

Honestly, adidas hasn't made a pair this good in a few years, and for me it's the best predators ever, and simply one of the best pairs ever. And it's also been a long time since Nike and Adidas released 2 absolutely brilliant pairs in the same year, it's a *remarkable* year for football boots😉

[@NoahCavanaugh]

For sure mate! These are so good! 😊 REMARKABLE 🫡

[@CTMoney7]

I got the same solar collow way elite TP and they are okay imo. Not what you would expect from a $300 boot like adizeros or superflies... just decent $150 shoes imo.

[@mungjr]

U mean the GX2 for Nike?

[@brand0ndiep]

This is best review of these predators on KZbin! Remarkable :)

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Thanks for watching mate! 🫡

[@jeroliao2236]

Got the white/silver color way today(laced without tongue),it looks siiiiick! and the fit is so great in true to size.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

That's class mate!

[@davidwang9486]

remarkable! Good vid as always; Really want a get a pair of these as an #11 on the field but a bit worried about the lockdown.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

😍 Hell yeah I appreciate you mate! They're just fine mate, so long as they fit your feet!

[@Feanaro5503]

I got a pair of the Roteiro Preds and am excited to try them in warm ups on turf before we start playing on grass in May. They look too nice for me to want to wear them on the dodgy FG pitches we have to use in summer.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

That's awesome mate 😎 Enjoy those!

[@nastradamous2k]

GREAT REVIEW! really run the shoes through its paces. Bought the FG Elite laced for Astro and will be testing out tomorrow here in the UK. I’ve been thinking should I have gone for the AG modal, please test out the AG and tell me I’ve not made a mistake on the FG.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I appreciate you mate!

[@nvmghost]

Great Video. Wondering if there’s any good boots for wide feet. Tried the Puma Future Ultimate and loved those. But with the new boot releases I’m having a hard time picking. Thanks 👍

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Tekela v4+, GX2

[@shmoneyblue5076]

Hey Noah great video and review! I recently got the NB tekela v4 pros the Tim weah colorway! Thanks for the recommendation because my mercurials were killing me. I love the look and really want these predators, is it worth upgrading from the Tekelas to these? Im not the most frequent maybe a few times a month playing games, and a few times practicing on my own but I have a coupon so the predators would cost $200. Sorry for the long comment but keep up the great work!

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Thank you mate! I don't think the Predator is an "upgrade" from the Tekela... the Tekela stands on it's own as far as comfort! If you're happy with the tekelas, I'd just stick with those!

[@NoMercyLaVoyage]

Hi Noah just a question. Does putting the tongue strap at different positions make a difference? Like at the moment it's under the first row of studs, what about putting it on the second row of studs?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Not really mate! 🫡

[@fdahist]

Waiting for ag!

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Probably not gonna happen mate!

[@fdahist]

@@NoahCavanaugh so its that good 😆? Im bouta buy one.

[@nickolasn.9692]

Great review Noah. Got my elite ft pearlized today! From a usual mercurial size 9 to the pred 9. I noticed it’s much roomier and a bit more space at the end of the toes. Do you think the hybrid touch synthetic will shrink and mold after some sessions? Or am I out of luck on a tighter fit?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

It definitely won't shrink mate,

[@nickolasn.9692]

@@NoahCavanaugh 😂 thanks Noah! If you want them lmk! Still fresh with tags and box. Or I’ll take a trade of mercs! Keep up the great content 🔥

[@JohnTheSpursFan23]

Hi Noah, Just curious does the tongue cushion the ball? As sometimes I train shooting with cheap heavy balls and I hit it on the laces many times. Slowly it starts to hurt on the top of my feet. So do you think tongue will cushion the shots?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

A little bit yeah!

[@harmelc_]

well u hinted at the f50s and it seems like they’re coming…. please review them asap hahaha one of my fav all time boots

[@NoahCavanaugh]

🤝

[@tajhalexander6040]

Hey Noah… in terms of lockdown from the Predator, GX1, and GX2, can you give a ranking of these three in terms of lockdown/ responsiveness? and then in your opinion, can you also give a ranking of the three in terms of comfort?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

It all depends how they fit YOUR foot and what the shape of the boot is. For my foot, the ranking from best to least best: 1) GX1 2) GX2 3) Predator They're VERY close though

[@cinderella166]

Hey Noah! Hope everything is good bro. I was wondering if you are going to do 1 month rewiew on the gx 2? Do you prefer gx2 or mercurial or the new adidas predators with tounge?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Same to you mate 🤝 I will be, yes!

[@axel7351]

13:12 crazy you say that actually cuz they’re bringing f50s back. i just hope they can do that silo justice instead of just rebranding the X silo

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I agree, hoping for the best!

[@gaetanopec3362]

I bought the ag version. I would be happy if you made a comparison video with the fg model

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[@mungjr]

Where did you buy it from?

[@blaincostello1407]

What we saying Noah.. take nostalgia out of it as I’m about the same age as you so the tongue hits different but obviously taking nostalgia out are we going with the FT version or Laces Elite? Great video again pal and congrats again on 30k 🙌

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Thanks mate! I'd go for the non tongue version probably

[@diegobonaventura8501]

Same comment I was looking for. Never been a fan of the tongue look or actual feel on the ball. Wanted to buy the all black with the tongue just cause it like the bottom part of(for some reason it’s different) but I live in San Antonio and like I mentioned, I don’t like the tongue look. Might go with the white still unsure

[@kcerv151]

What do you think m8, I’m stuck between these and the Erling Harland Gx 2 lol. The last pair I bought were the Nike Phantom Vision 1 and tbh loved that sensation. Cheers for the feedback!

[@NoahCavanaugh]

They're both great mate! Whichever fits you the best I reckon! If they both fit, whichever you like the look/performance of the best!

[@emileocantu5779]

Not to mention the leaks that f50 might come back. Everyone gonna have to compete against adidas this year.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

They're coming back - I'm 89% sure!

[@guac1422]

Hey Noah, I want to try the furon v7 but idk what size to get. You said to try going about .5 size up but I still have a finger width of space, Should I still go half a size?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

From your normal US size, go 1/2 size up. It may be different in EU or UK depending on the brand

[@antoniogonzalez6296]

amazing boots. typically play on a very similar AG pitch you tested them on. Would these be okay on AG? Definitely not turf. thanks.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Yes mate, if you have a watch of the video I talk about it!

True to size!

Hahah I appreciate you mate!

[@themanmiles95]

Is there a huge difference between the shoe having the big tongue or without the tongue? Because the tongue models are sold out

[@NoahCavanaugh]

zero difference

[@Feanaro5503]

Does the lockdown improve if you have the strap under the middle of your foot?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Not really, no. Won't make a difference where you put the tongue

[@Damian-wr6bz]

I’ve just purchased the white silver ft version but i’m hearing a lot of stories about soleplate cracking. Do you think that or the potential snapping of the elastic band is something to worry about?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Nice mate! I don't think you'll have any issues 🤝

[@jimikarkkanen3245]

As you’ve played with these on AG for some time, has their sole plate cracked? Seen plenty of cracked sole plates but I would definitely want to buy the tongue version instead of AG without the tongue.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Not at all mate, mine have performed VERY well so far

[@jimikarkkanen3245]

@@NoahCavanaugh okay. I will probably then get the Fg tongue version and use it both on fg and ag. Hope they survive and don’t break/crack straight away on ag.

[@kernmw10]

Been wearing the new Nike Tiempos a lot and love them but considering trying the new Predators. How do they compare?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Fantastic so long as you fit in them!

[@miguelortega388]

If you was to fit in to all the speed boots what would be your number one pick?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

IF I fit in any speed boot, I'd probably still pick the Morelia Neo 4 Beta MIJ or Furon. Excellent products. The Vapor is on that list too, but not sure if I'd like it as much

[@user-lq6ex8ie6j]

I'm thinking of buying this model, but I'm going to use this one in artificial ground. How does it feel when you use in a.g? Does it give damage to knee or ankles?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

All the thoughts are in the video! 🤝

[@sabinedwards9888]

Would you pick the FT over the Laces for a game boot?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

That's a great question bro! Not sure... 🤔

[@landothomas1118]

Hey, I bought the Pro version for $150US. I’ve never owned a pair of Adidas cleats but I really like this one. However, my right foot is slipping out of the boot. It seems shallow. I replaced one but the second is the same. Thoughts on what to do (outside of returning #2)? Update 2 days later: I replaced the Pro for the Elite after watching another KZbin video stating the shallowness issue does not apply to the Elite. So far so, my right foot is in place and feels secured.

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Nice mate! Love to hear you enjoy it. Your feet are probably different sizes, which is why only the right foot is slipping

[@lucasbischofberger957]

just bought a pair and my left foot fits great, but its a little tight on my right. will they stretch at all over a break in period?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

That's class mate! I'm sorry to hear about your right foot though. Maybe you have different sized feet. They'll stretch yes.

[@JackLightning]

Any thoughts on the 2/3G version?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Haven't tried them, but I'm sure they'd be decent for AG!

[@Shoetesting]

I would love to see nike ag soleplate on the preds

Thank you mate 😂❤️

[@njnxv]

I have the Predator Freak.1 in UK7.5, I’m a UK7 in normal shoes but had to size up as I have slightly wide feet. Would a UK7 in these be ok or would I have to size up again?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I'd probably go with the same size you wore the freak in

[@iTzShoX]

Please make a comparison with the ag model :)

[@NoahCavanaugh]

We'll see mate!

[@aristotelischr3]

Do you recommend going up half a size if you have wide feet?

[@imranazis7689]

Im curious abt tht too

[@Leonaksjfjskajs]

I generally have issues with shoes not being wide enough, I went true to size on the elite without the tongue and they do stretch to feel really good but snug (in a good way) at the same time like he said

[@davidbaker8560]

i have wide feet and never have been able to fit into adidas boots. i have these new predators and they fit me well true to size. it also helps that its not a one piece upper

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Probably not mate, it's important to get boots that fit the length of your foot and then figure out which models will fit the width. These will fit most people, but you might find the Tekela (1/2 size up) and the GX2 (True to size) fit a tad widder

[@truongnguyen-tw2do]

Would you recommend go up 1/2 size for wide feet?

[@NoahCavanaugh]

No, get the length right and then figure out which silos fit the width. If your feet don't fit with the right size length, probably not the right shoe for you

[@xmasstic8502]

Hey i have a question, so i got a pair of these and i went true to size but the cleats look and feel so small do you think overtime if i break them in a bit more they’d fit a bit more comfortably

[@ridingwithsam]

I always have to go half a size up for Adidas

[@NoahCavanaugh]

I'd just go up 1/2 size mate!

[@mecsi4088]

Will the rubber strike detach ? Im scared that the rubber stril will detach like the others

[@NoahCavanaugh]

Eventually, yes probably. They seem to have decent durability so far though!

Do you rate these higher than even the Mizuno leathers??

[@NoahCavanaugh]

mmm probably not mate, that's a tough one
