I wish Puma would make their MG boots more widely available. So hard to get in North America. Best AG plate out there, no question.

I had been manifesting this video for the last 2 weeks. Thanks for covering!

AG/MG boots definitely worth the investment. Save your knees, ankles and match boots from getting ruined

my current favorite are the Asics DS light AG. not only to they have great studs for AG, but they also have a bit of cushioning under the heel that really makes a big difference in harder / older AG pitches. next best thing is probably somewhere between the puma MGs and UnoZeros. the Mizuno are also solid, but studs are a bit too long for me

First of all, thank you for the wonderfully prepared and clear overview. I love your videos. I coach a few children's and youth teams myself, so the topic of football boots and the different styles is always an issue for us. Especially after the winter, when we get out of the hall and onto the pitch. For adults, we always recommend buying at least two pairs of shoes, as we often switch between artificial turf (or grass) and natural grass. For children, we tend to recommend MG shoes. Would you agree with that? Speaking of clarity. I find the dozens of different types of shoes totally confusing and not in the interests of the customer. It's great for you because you can present more to us and we're happy to listen to you, but sometimes I long for the times around the turn of the millennium when the selection of shoes was simpler and clearer. Adidas in particular, which I personally have always liked in terms of fit and style, give me the impression that they don't really know where they want to go with AG shoes. I have the impression that style is being prioritised over functionality.

Love these AG boot videos. Great to learn about the stud patterns. I'd love to watch a follow up video for how durable these boots actually are. I only play on AG pitches and am trying to find the most durable boots where the soles aren't coming away after a few games. Cheers 👍

Thanks for this video, very important topic that still most people do not understand! Personally I would never wear FG on AG, currently using the Puma MG and my next boots I think will be the adidas 2G/3G as our pitch is really an older AG pitch. I'm really curious if Nike will bring out something like the Puma MG or Adidas 2g/3G, as they currently do not have anything that really compares to it, the Nike AG Pro stud plate is really only for high quality, new AG pitches

I've been using Adidas Predator Accuracy+ AG for my artificial grass games and sometimes Mercurials but they're a little too tight. For FG games I was using Copa Pure, but after I decided to give Mizuno Alpha Elites a try I was immediately hooked. About to order the AG version to retire my Predators.

Dude make a turf boot tier list, that's what we need

Great video Jay! Just wondering which of these boots are good for wide feet?

Thanks a lot for the video! I bought the Phantom GX2 ag. The boots are perfect and the feeling is wonderful. Perfect for my wide feets.

Great list! Very useful since it seems everyone needs AG these days. Is there any chance you can confirm that the sizing on these boots is the same as the FG version? In particular, is the Furon V7+ AG the same as the FG? I wear the FGs a 1/2 size up…

Awesome video ❤ can you do one on a solo training session?

I've been using the Copa Pure AG boots, but I ground off the edges of each stud making them rounder. I know this is a bit brutal and not everyone's thing, but it makes a good boot a really good boot. By the way, these video's are brilliant, Jay. Thank you.

Hey Jay, I think we see a lot of request for wide forefoot boots comparison, may be you need to find someone with that configuration. I also have a wide forefoot and New Balance is the most comfy found so far but not happy with control

The best expirience on artificial grass I've had with Adidas Predator with Traxion HG sole plate, which was something between AG and TF, because they were boots with AG sole plate, but also had a layer of foam, so they were soft with very good traction

I hope that you can do a version for turf boots in the future

Hey Jay, do you prefer the Phantom GX (lowtop) or Luna (hightop) ?

Please make a vid covering natural grass boots, or best if you are playing on both natural and artificial grass since thats the case for a lot of footballers in europe. Thank you :)

Would love to see the Adidas Crazyfast HG/AG boots that are sold in Japan, South Korea, etc. included in this list. They are a great and safe boot for AG surfaces and I have no idea why Adidas isn't selling them in US, UK and EU markets.

I am still beyond annoyed why Adidas refuses to make more than one color for AG. Really want that blackout or pearl white one, but no AG option? and none of the AG options have a tongue?

I use Puma Future AG and Mizuno Morelia neo AG. Both work quite good on natural grass too attleast on dry weather.

Hi, do you have any recommandations for hard ground? during the summer, on public pitches, many ground are tough to play with FG. Thanks.

Mizuno Neo is very good as well,it is very light with some protection and very good in changing direction

Thoughts on some of the best takedown models for ag?

Do you think the laces on the GX 2 affect using the outside of the boot to shoot or pass

Is the sizing the same for the FG and AG 4g predators

What are your thoughts about the Diadora B elite tech fg?Thank you

This great but can you do a kids version of bang for buck and mixed grounds as kids boots and soles plate are terrible to find a good all rounder.

is Mizuno Morelia FG good for those artificial grass with black rubber dots? im aware that Mizuno FG is relatively short and very round and thick (kinda similar to copa mundial), also would you recommend copa Mundial on 3G pitches ?

Yo jay mike, are first copy football boots good?It'll be great if you make a video showcasing the difference between the real ones.

I can highly recommend the puma mg. Durability is good, the boot still wraps your foot well. I play on 3g .

Please make a video on how to lock ankle for pure power strike and curling technique

I'm currently using Puma ultra as my foot are a little bit thin. Will the Puma future ultimate 7 MG be too wide for me? Thank you

hi love the vid but i was wondering if u can make a video for best AG boost for wide feet?

I have trouble finding AG boots in the US. When I am in Europe much easier to get. Especially Nike. I know some don’t believe it but I am firm believer of AG boots on artificial.

Only play on ag ground which one you recommend between predator 2g/3g or Nike tiempo ag And which one have shorter stud / Thank you

I have Morelia pro ag. Feels awesome but the damn irritating rubber pellets keep getting inside. Thinking of gluing the front portion of the tongue to prevent any gap.

Are alpha ag plate fit differently than FG? Do you think arch fit is like neo or Morelia 2?

I play solely on AG and jumped from FG to AG based on one of your previous videos. I had always been an Adidas loyalist but jumped ship to Nike based on their superior AG soleplate. I initially got tiempos but they rubbed around the laces and were super uncomfortable but gave Nike another shot and moved to Vapor Pros. I loved them so much I bought a second pair. Unfortunately, I drag my toes and I go through boots pretty quickly when the soleplate starts to come away from the upper. I’m open to trying something new but nothing else I’ve founds seems to deliver in that ‘Pro’ level price range. Would love advice/suggestions if people have them.

Some days I use Adidas Freak+ TF on some easy games, but current go to is Adidas Accuracy .1 TF. Reason go with TF model is Adidas did not make any actual AG until newest model w 2G/3G & 4G. My feet doesn't fit current Nike and I want laceless model, so seeing Tekela V4 came laceless AG model I'm very interested.

Would you say the new puma mg plate is better than the one used on the previous future

would the mizuno morelia 4 elite make a difference compared to the alpha version?

Are the futures closest to using turf shoes coz that's currently what im doing on AG pitches. I can't imagine the stiffer sole plates being as comfy as Turf shoes.

Are the Adidas Copa Mundial, Adidas Copa Gloro and Mizuno Morelia IV beta elite good for AG?

Make an indoor/futsal list as well please

Im midfilder and wingers puma future or Phantom GX?

still neglecting asics i see...

Please review Predator Elite turf! 😊

Hi JayMike, with your knowledge about Mizuno boots, why AG soleplate is not available in Japan? Only in US/Euro. Thanks for answering in advance.

Does the Mizuno alpha AG have the KaRVO technology?

You guys should try Asics DS light . I swear they are better than my hypervenom elite .

I’ve tried playing in Nike Mercurial Elite AG-PRO (the sole collapsed within two weeks), Nike Phantom GX Elite AG-PRO (too stiff), Adidas Copa Pure 1.0 FG (great, but the toe ripped). Currently, I’m wearing Puma Future Ultimate MG - the best boots I’ve ever worn. The next pair will be Mizuno Elite

The puma king ultimate mg is absolutely wonderful feeling to my feet and knees

Really useful. I just bought AG, went for the Phantom as the fit was better for me than the legends whilst the Futures seemed to slip in the heel. One thing I noticed in UK, I could not find Phantom Pros in AG, so went for Academy as the elites at £220 just seemed to high for occasional pitches. However I notice the academy studs are different, more of them and look smaller than the pro and elite models. What are your thoughts on the academy AG?

would love to see a video on boots for those who play on AG and FG and need one pair for both! Great video, keep up the good work!!

Hi All! Appreciate reading my post. I play in an amateur league twice a week. Most of the time on the 3G pitch with rubber pellets and FG field during summer. Post ACL injury/surgery 6 years ago, so very careful with my movement/dribbling and physical contact. I haven't really bought any new cleats since the injury (ex-Obra II user). The choice comes between Puma Future Ultimate MG and Phantom Luna II AG-Pro. Both fit my feet very well, I like the Puma Future snug fit, but the sizing could be better. What do you think is the best AG/FG combo with these two boots? I've noticed that Puma's MG studs are short and might not work well on FG field, while Nike's AG-Pro are longer and should work on both AG and FG. I want to buy one Elite pair for all types rather than two Pro pairs. Big thank you in advance!

i use tf boots on ag pitches. i find the presence of the midsole to make a huge difference to impact mitigation. neither fg nor ag boots have midsoles.

I've had Made in Japan's but I'm not paying £300 for AG boots. Mizuno Monarcida AG........ About £60 and are actually really good. They do a turf option for a similar price and they are also very good.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! Been wearing Puma Future MG for 2 years now. From the US and most games are on AG. How would the Alpha Japans perform on FG?

Do you notice a difference in the feel and sizing between Future's FG/AG and MG soleplates? I think the shape and especially the higher edges of MG soleplate make for a bit different and a bit tighter experience. I'd just love Puma to maintain the shape of the soleplate while keeping the studs length (and number of them)

I wanna make the purchase from Cambodia, as your fan, but I’m not sure that how can this delivery through dol or not

please make a indoor football shoes, need that!

Does anyone know if there is any difference in the soleplate between the AG Mizuno Alpha Elites and MiJ?

Always been weary about the hollowed out studs. I feel like something on the pitch will get stuck in them (rubber pullets, ag grass stems), and will cause the boot to get stuck, increasing potential for injury. Also, would definitely not wear them on real grass, since dirt, mud, grass, will probably get stuck in them and cause traction issues. There’s also the unpleasant task of trying to clean those things out after a match. Maybe I’m just being paranoid. If someone is out there with experience with hollowed out studs, please comment. I’d like to hear your perspective. TY.

Nike premier 3 fg are the best for Astro. Hard to get leather and ag but they are the best

That MG plate on Puma looks incredible. Remind me of the AG plate Nike used to use even on the previous tiempo. That is the best plate. Now I just wish Puma would have a leather boot option with that soleplate and I'd buy it 100%. Also none of this fake leather bs...

I would wear turf shoes on this type of surface, the cushioning is worth the trade off of slightly less traction

Can you do this for FG boots

I love playing on this old school turf, when you get up from the "grass" with a face covered with that Russian black caviar on the face. Still, I cannot see any difference in boots for AG and FG pitches. In South Korea, I played on the last-generation AG's, even chevron studs work extremely well, same feeling as on natural grass but very flat and even with much smaller risks of foot & knee injuries.

Hey Unisport! Can you tell us which boots you would choose if you wanted the new predators but you woukd play on the 2g artificial grass? The turf version or the 2g/3g? Is one heavier/bulkier than the other? Or maybe both boots suck and you would go with something else? I was really hoping the 2g/3g is the answer because the turf outsole feels so much different than FG boots:/ I have puma future pro MG and they are great for AG outside high quality field we play on but for the indoor turf, my feet are overworked in those, as if there was not enough support or something...

Shout out to the old AG-R outsole on older Nike boots. Had that on my Magista Opus And it was fantastic. I also have the Mizuno Alpha Elite AG and they have been great boots.

I have pair of Puma future elite MG s I recommending them all day

I really love my Mizuno DNA, i know that it's an easy win, but i found them on sale and I'm very happy on ag and fg, coming from Morelia neo beta japan. I am now really concerned about my boots for next year, because I don't think I'm gonna be so lucky to find shoes of quality similar to DNA, and about the Alpha i am a bit concerned for my wide feet. Please give me an advise guys ❤

How is the neo morelia ag compared to the alpha?

What about the Mizuno Morelia Neo 3 Pro Ag?

Could you make some recs for good takedown/budget friendly AG options? Recently got some alpha elites for FG. Don’t want to ruin them right away or blow the warranty, but also not made of money so keen to get a more affordable pair of AG’s as I play on both surfaces. Ideally something durable but not too chunky feeling 🤷‍♀️

Nike Tiempo Legend 10 Pro or Puma Future 7 Pro?

20 years of playing FG boot on AG for me , never had any injury problems

Is it late to become a professional footballer in your early 30s such as 30 31 or 32 if you have the talent and style to play ?

In VietNam we have Tiempo 10 Tf, Phantom GX 1 tf, Nike Mercurial TF, and X Crazyfast in top 5

I got the Puma Future Ultimate MGs just before Christmas and I've had to send them back because the outsole had already started coming away from the upper at the toe. Such a shame as apart from that I loved them. I'd be interested to hear of anyone else had this issue or if it was a one-off.

What if i trim the fg boots?

wish i would’ve seen this video before pulling my hamstring on a turf field saturday 😭😂

are fg/mg boots fine for 4g turf

@Unisport, what about FG/AG? Can it be used in Artificial ground?

Honestly, it's nice to see Adidas FINALLY! doing a proper AG rather than adding one/two extra studs to there FG model

What abou copas 2 AG ? In terms of safety. :)

Very displeased with the shipping of unisport. I order a week ago my new cleats and they haven’t even been picked up by fed ex. Seems like this happens a lot

Can I put your product link in my video?

Can you try soccer shoes from Indonesia?

my tiempo legend 10 ag was broken less than one month🙃

Mondial teams are the best turf/ag boot overall in terms of durability comfort and SAFETY

Guys i need yalls help in making a decision between 2 pairs of cleats

Cool

I really fancy some predators but all the new AG pitches locally are being advised as 3G and i dont think i want super chunky boots so a little worried about the 4G version.

I just got the tiempo 10 pro with the AG sole. Its a great boot. Excellent for wide feet. I wish i wouldve gone wiht black though. The yellow version is already black from the rubber pallets 😂😂😂

There is nothing better than turf Mundial Team to this type of pitches.

Do the alpha AG's have internal heel counter vs elite FG?

O meu mano manda uma dessas aí pra mim olha o montão que se tem a minha rasgo
