If they do a turf or AG version I’ll grab a pair too, the grass where I live is completely dead

Had my first pickup game in the non-tongued laced Pred this weekend. It's the business and the hype is real

AG's are supposed to be coming for the Predators. Unisport was saying so in replies on their review video. Who knows when though.

From the replies they were giving it sounds like they might be a true AG soleplate too, Adidas been pushing out these crap AG sole plates with no conical studs the past couple of years. Released the last copas in a somewhat appropriate AG stud pattern for ONE colorway, but that was it. Hope these don't dissapoint.

Nike dropped the ball and Adidas is capitalizing

Agree. Nike not been super on it for almost 2 years now. Banked a lot on the introduction of the Vapor XV and it hasn't been the most popular thing ever. Legend floundering. And now the GX is being phased out for a lesser option.
Combine this with them reducing their number of sponsored athletes and the recent news of ending Tiger's deal, and you wonder what is going on generally.
5 years ago I would have never guessed, but right now in the comparative Silos of each brand's footwear, I would take literally every Adidas option over the Nike equivalent.

El Argentino
fluid hips
let's not even get started on Kobe's. But for real, they are dropping the ball big time. Only thing they still do right is the vouchers and the AG sole plates, which for me are very important. I have an issue right now with stocking up on AG TL 9's. Sadly, unless Nike drops some R9 tribute stuff, these will probably be my last Nike boots. Only got the vapors for the 2002 nostalgia, when I got the same pair but the blacked out ones they only lasted two months before the sole plate cracked. These along with my Mizuno Neo MIJ, and a pair of Premiers might last me until my playing days are over. But will see what adidas do, but may just be a Mizuno man if I go through these boots quickly.
Also picked these up for futsal, even their indoor shoes have K-Leather.

I think they've come to the realization they overpaid for the NBA and NFL deal.
I think they also equip the MLB and NHL

Been looking at the Mizuno morelia neo IV beta

Did you buy your Mizunos in the same size as your Nike premiers?

MLB yes; Adi is in their last year of equipping NHL before it goes over fully to Fanatics (!)
My experience w/ the Rebula 3 was 1/2 size down from Nike size (i.e. same as Adidas sizing)

Nope, half size down. I'm a 12 in everything, got the Mizuno's in 11.5. Even these indoors I got a half size down as well and they are a perfect fit. Seems all Mizuno runs a half size big.

You like the Crazyfast >> Merc? I like the crazyfast.1 turfs a lot, been eyeing the plus model if it dips in price

I got the Crazyfast+ this summer and was amazed at how vacuum-sealed it felt in the fit. I appreciate the Zoom in the Merc because I feel a noticiable lack of fatigue, but the sensation of the + is distinctly something else.

Guess these didn’t sell very well, lot of them here at the clearance store. The red in person is very ugly

Also I now know why a lot of people said the GX was grippy while I didn’t experience it. Turns out it’s my rainbow colorway….
There is a massive difference in friction between the two, the yellow one is way stickier. I’ve been playing this whole time without its flagship feature lol

I have the black out pair of GX and when reviews were like “it’s too grippy” I honestly thought they were crazy. Mine are very subtly textured. With very minimal “grip”.Also I now know why a lot of people said the GX was grippy while I didn’t experience it. Turns out it’s my rainbow colorway….

I wonder if it’s the dark with grey pattern that lacks the grip. That would make a lot of sense when I hear people talking about how grippy they are and I’m like ummm like I guess there is some grip?

It’s the only explanation to me. I played in the yellow pair and it’s a night and day difference. Lot of fun pinging long balls with the gripknit now. Kind of mad I played in the rainbow ones for almost a year, wish I would’ve known

Y'all have the elite? Only those have the grip. Takedown models don't

Wish the nike premiers had the tiempo soleplate for more "bite"
Was slipping on damp grass/mud today during a pickup game.

Yeah have the elite. I’m intrigued now to find a different colorway and see. (Recent run in the freezing cold)
