Glad these seem decent. This makes me especially excited for a 3rd gen. Seems like the designers were quite inspired in creating the Luna and GX simultaneously but realized there isn’t a market for both. Hopefully more time in the oven means figuring out a unified identity for the next model.

For me they ruined the midcut boots by shortening the collar with every generation as it is purely for aesthetics now and it doesn’t change the feel anymore. Superfly 4 and 5 actually kinda felt like socks, and these new collar boots just feel like any other lowcut boots.

I feel the same way. I bought the Magista obra 2 turf versions for 5-a-side games because they were on huge discount. Loved the feel. When I was finally able to finally afford the latest mercurial superfly 9, I felt disappointed as the collar is useless now... it no longer feels the same.

So, I now have a pair of these (I previously owned Phantom GT2s). I loved my old GT2s - as a wide-footed player, they are the only boot I have ever found genuinely comfortable - but they're falling apart now. Hence, these. - The boots look great in-person. I get that the colour is a bit much for most guys, but honestly, it looks good in-person. Only question is whether it suits your personal style or not. - There is probably a little more room in the toe top for me than in the GT2. That's a bit of a shame for me, I don't really need the 'dead room', but otherwise it's a great fit for wider-foot players. - The strike power from these is excellent, and the touch is good. - The cleat pattern has taken some getting used to, having studs where you might not be used to having studs - my foot is pretty sore. That said, the boots do seem to turn on an absolute dime, with no grip issues.

My first question about the sole plate is, while I can see the rational for a player that spends a lot of time twisting or pivoting, what's it like for those of us who spend most of our time sprinting down the touchline? I think we'd want more linear studs for that.

@Soccerreviewsforyou8 ай бұрын
There's no real ankle support to be had from any mid-cut boots. The collars are not design to restrict ankle mobility, which is where "support" would come from. The biggest thing to worry about is the quality of the fit. If the fit is good, the boots will feel more stable, which is where any real support from the boots is going to come from, mid or low. Hope this helps 👍

I still think its a bad move by Nike! The GX was so popular and judging by how fast the sizes sold out, it had to be one of their best sellers ever, they coule of easily got another year out of the GX at least! This is change simple for the sake of change. Much like the mis-step by adidas, who had an amazing boot in the Speedflow. But completely changed them up because it was that time of year for a new model. These marketing departments are clueless and think their customers are stupid and just prefer a new shiny thing! Rather than what people really want. Its just a way to justify their jobs, "look we did a thing, by creating a new thing" And i think in this case, the designers of the flop Luna think the bad sales, were just down to a marketing mistake by saying "its designed for women" when even the women didnt like it! And they're basically trying to force them out the door with this release. These are just Luna 2s high and low cut! And the GX was a one-off, classic. Much like the HyperVenom 1s. This is good news for other brands like Sketchers and New Balance. Because right now, Nike Mercurials aren't great, with the insole sliding on top of the air pockets, they've ruined the Tiempo line by taking away the thing people loved about them, the kangaroo leather! I dont see why anyone would buy them over the Premier 3s. People like what they like, and i like a bare foot feel with conical studs, so the New Balance Tekela laced version or the Harry Kane boots look a lot more appealing for my next pair of boots
@2starweakfoot8 ай бұрын
this is the most sensible comment i’ve read all month about these boots. imo you’ve nailed it, at this point it’s just for the sake of something new. the gx 1 elite was doing great i couldn’t even touch the last 2 colorways because of how fast they sold out, sure they were limited edition but even the generic editions were selling out fast well before that! could have easily had another 5-6 months of guaranteed sales if they didn’t want to wait the full year. we get it nike it’s all about marketing and innovation but that doesn’t mean you can’t make steps in the wrong direction or even steps to the side.
