Top 5 BEST speed boots 2024 (so hard to choose!)

[@RagingMist]

Agree with the alpha being number 1. Just does everything right, and for shooting, it's the best feeling boot I've tried. The upper isn't the softest, but that's what makes it great, because it gives the structure and lockdown. And on your feet, it's one of the few boots that just disappears. The best word I can use to describe it is Connected: Connected to the ground, the boot, and the ball. One thing I've found, depending on the colourway, the coating of the upper is slightly different. The main issue I have with the Vapor 16's is that because its so ridiculously soft, there isn't much structure and lockdown. Plus the zoom air, whilst nice and a great experience, you feel higher up off the ground compared to other boots. The Puma Ultra's, I don't know, they just don't feel special. They don't feel as snug, and I'm just not getting any 'wow' factor from the upper.

[@nurrachmaddwiyanto79]

Yep, I found it on SR4 and teaser edition have different coating with the others

[@K1rkHammet]

Ultras feel like cheap plastic

[@RagingMist]

@@K1rkHammet I don't think they feel cheap. It's super soft, and probably the most comfortable upper on the list, and the knitted collar is the best I've ever felt. It just doesn't feel special. There's no snug sensation, or structural feeling. It's just there.

[@KnowledgeableServant]

I have narrow feet and fit perfectly in the puma ultra ultimate 2022 mg do you think the mizuno alpha elite ag would do great for me

[@KnowledgeableServant]

And how is the durability of the alpha

[@flakers1337]

the alpha is just goated. it gets away with a wider shape because of the zeroglide. the upper feels amazing too just shooting with that second-skin type upper is so fun

[@josspieter3491]

Second that bud. Alpha totally underrated, & the best speed boots for me. Be it the upper, outsole, revolutionary inner lining all top bins imo.

[@koreczkowo]

totally agree! Alpha no.1

[@CorruptControl]

My only wish for the Alpha is that the Karvo insert went the full length of the sole plate, rather than half.

[@QuyenTin-t1s]

Mizuno Alpha No.1

[@Zaxstar007]

@@CorruptControl there is no real benefit goin full lenght it would not get any snappier and the midfoot its stiff enough

[@kevenram]

I’ve loved my MIJ alphas, and if you look around you can definitely find them just under $200. The boot has so much going for it and also not mentioned is the zero glide under the tongue. Just fantastic.

[@hallom-pj6nq]

yeah but only until you play 3 times with them…

[@RagingMist]

@@hallom-pj6nq Why I went for the black one, even if it doesn't look as good out of the box

[@varelaiazul817]

The Vapor 16 has been fabulous to me. The way the upper immediately contours to the shape of my foot out of the box makes it a standout. The fit is snug and without distractions, imo one of the best fitting boots that I ever tried from heel to toes. A true second skin and socklike experience. Touch and feel for the ball is superb, comfort and break-in is the best of any Mercurial (and I have had PLENTY of Mercurials on my feet). The underfoot cushioning from the air zoom is strangely smooth, it’s a nice feeling definitely improved upon the Vapor 15s zoom unit that sometimes came off as lumpy. It’s quickly become a favorite of mine. I dare say it’s the best knitted Mercurial ever, including the epic Flyknit Ultra. Maybe I’m still blinded by the novelty of a new boot, but I’m beginning to doubt that to be the case. Every time I slip them on it’s an “aww yeah” type of feeling.

[@unisport]

Couldn't agree more - it's a phenomenal boot in my book too. I'm with you in saying it might be the best knitted Merc ever. Or, at least, it's the 16 or the 13 for me. I just think that as a SPEED boot, the tooling is lacking a little stiffness in the forefoot and the upper could do with a bit more lockdown to help with the responsive sensation as you push off. From a more general, holistic point of view though, it's definitely one of the best new boots of the year for me - alongside the F50 Elite Messi and Sokito Scudetta. /Jay

Is it a really big diference than vapor15? I thought thats almost the same boot, ty

Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 ALL DAY EVERYDAY!!! If they’re good enough for CR7, they’re good enough for me!!! Siiiiuuuuuuuu!!!!!

[@kaitothammavong3055]

Did the vapors take time to break in, or were they comfortable out of the box?

[@IanChan_Official]

@@kaitothammavong3055 The Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite FG is the only boot I ever had that’s comfortable straight out of the box. You can literally play a 90 minute game on the 1st or 2nd try.

[@Hotdog_devourer]

Can you make a review on the new pumas?

[@OmarHassan-bc9zs]

I wonder where the Mizuno alpha elite would rank on this list? Since I don't think it is that much different than the made in Japan right?

[@josspieter3491]

Personally I think the Alpha Elites are a more durable pair of boots than its MIJ counterpart due to it's "stiffer" upper. My mate's Alpha MIJ breaks down much faster & i play more games than him!

[@RagingMist]

I prefer the elites, at least for AG. The less stiff soleplate puts less strain on the feet. The upper is about 1mm thicker so dampens the sting a bit more, but still gives a close touch.

[@layman4458]

@@RagingMist do they fit true to size? I’m from the Uk and it doesn’t seem like they are in local stores so I can’t try them

[@Enzo-el6vy]

Would your list be the same if you predominantly played on artificial grass/ turf and used AG soleplates instead? Would the Alphas MIJ AG also be number 1 in that case?

[@chosenten790]

Jay, doesn’t it seem crazy that none of these boots come even close to how light previous speed boot generations were? Such as the 2014-15 adidas F50 that were around 150 grams. Or even the 2011 adidas prime which were closer to 140 grams? This generation of speed boots feels notably heavier to me and personally does impact how light and mobile I feel.

Interesting!! The Nylon board seems familiar with the carbon plate. Is it not the same thing right? what is the better one? haha

[@derbyyank13]

No surprises for number 1. They're just so damn good. We should hopefully see the update for the Alpha towards the end of this year. Sokito have done really well for themselves too!!

[@unisport]

As long as they don't mess it up. Hard to improve on the Alpha, and many things that could easily be over engineered for the sake of it... /Jay

[@RagingMist]

Where did you hear about an updated alpha coming at the end of the year?

[@derbyyank13]

@@unisport That's very true. Hopefully they make some gradual improvements. New soleplate would be a hit though!

[@derbyyank13]

@@RagingMist It's just an educated guess. The Morelia II refreshes every 5 years, 3 for the Morelia Neo, and whichever other boot is normally two years. The first Alpha came out towards the end of 2022, therefore it stands to reason that the next model should be out towards the end of the year (in Japan at least, Europe a bit later)

Could you get away with playing with the mizouno alpha FG/AG version on artificial grass, or are the studs too agressive? Or am just wrong in thinking that the FG/AG version of the mizouno alphas are better than the AG version because of a faster and more snappier outsole?

Mizuno alpha #1

[@willchr]

Which boot would you choose if upper/ball feel wasn’t important? I play rugby where speed, agility, change of direction (maybe lockdown too) is all that is needed

[@unisport]

Then I’d probably go for either the Mizuno Alpha or PUMA Ultra - the Carbon if you want it to be really responsive when you push off, and the Ultimate if you also prefer slightly more flexibility for a bit of an agile feel too.

[@willchr]

@@unisport thanks so much for the response. I have the mercurial 16s but feel sometimes that launching off from a stand still and lateral movements (like side stepping) could be slightly better. Will check out the puma and mizuno. Have really enjoyed your videos - keep up the great work!

Hi! Which speedboot/any boot has the widest toe area? I could always break in boots in the midfoot, but my toes are really sensitive. I had the leather 99g speedportal and the midfoot is nice, but the leather does not stretch as much as i would like. @Unisport

[@netLG]

pumas, new balance, asics those brands usually have the wide toe area; mizuno as well, but the alphas are narrow

[@gv_-06]

Is the alpha really the number 1 or is unisport overhyping it so it sells better on their website, cause right nmow the boot is on a pretty big discount and there are still plenty of sizes left of them

[@unisport]

Just read the comments mate, lots of people backing up that Alpha is amazing. In general, I don't hype things up just to sell them. If I did, everyone would see through it pretty quickly and any credibility I might have left would be gone in an instant. /Jay
