For as good as I think they ultimately are, there have been quite a few complaints about the latest Phantom model. Blending elements from the original GX and Luna, the GX 2 and Luna 2 aren't exactly what everyone was hoping for. But what if I told you that Nike has already fixed all of these problems?
In today's video we take a closer look at the AG-Pro version of the Nike Phantom GX 2 Elite, boots that swap the OG Luna soleplate that so many have complained about, for the OG GX soleplate, along with a more familiar stud pattern! We talk about how this changes the fit, feel and experience, along with how the AG-Pro model compares to the FG one.

Nike have the best ag sole plate. Not too aggressive and circular plastic studs.

@All_About_the_Benjamins 4 ай бұрын

I actually think the Nike AG-PRO soleplates are a little too aggressive, I prefer Nike’s regular AG soleplates like the ones on the Vapor 14, Legend 9, and the Academy models.

Would you recommend the ag or fg soleplates for me because I spend around half the time playing on gras with the other playing on turf. I'm not sure what kind of turf it is that my school has but it isnt astro and i have never had problems with fg soleplates. The Pile height is 2 1/4” - 2 1/2” I am mainly not sure because I like the responsiveness of a stiff plate as well as the easy change of direction with blades.

I don’t think of a pair of boots have ever screamed “buy me” more than these on release. probably the best boots I’ve ever put on my feet straight out the box. needing boots made for ag is a big deal breaker for me so between these as the predators the gx 2 is a clear winner for me in ag model. 👌🏼

@@JonathanRodriguez-nz9nw The ag solplate is so similar to the fg soleplate so I don’t see them as a great option for ag pitches, unless it’s a 10/10 pristine ag pitch. The Nike ag soleplate imo is much better for ag surfaces.

@@leekellehern7 fair enough, i have the speedflow.1 in ag with the same plate, the studs are definitely shorter than the fg and you get more. That said, you are right that this particular ag plate is better overall. Wish adi would hollow theirs out and shorten the studs more. There is a new AG option for the current Pred though that i would love to try and looks incredibly safe and comfortable

Thanks! so it’s that time again for me, I have phantom vision 2’s FG SG and AG, I like to use the same boot on different surfaces so it feels as much the same for me as possible unfortunately my AG’s need replacing and I can’t get phantom vision 2s again, so after your help and advice I am going for the phantom luna 2’s in AG my AG phantom visions are size 10 should I go with the same size again or size up for these? For years I come back to your Channel when it’s time for new boots and your consistency and indepth information is amazing keep up the great work !

The GX2s i have in AG do feel a bit more comfortable...really good in the wet.. almost predator like grip. I would recommend the Elite as that is the only boot you get the full grip with. Same for the Mercurial, with Zoom 3/4 soles... always go Elite. The only one i'd say save money on is the Tiempo Pro now its not leather line of boots.

Nice comparison. I’ve been playing in phantom gt2 ag for last couple years, love the boots and I play both ag and fg fields. (The new GX2 AG is basically the same as the GT boots, just the GT we’re slightly stiffer overall). Recently bought a new pair and tried the hot water trick, and the upper became considerably softer. Can’t wait to get out and test them out

@irishsoccerguy 3 ай бұрын

Yeah it's just whether or not the boot has the sock like collar. Hight cut boots have them. Low cuts don't. The phantom gx is low cut and the luna is high cut. The high cuts are extremely hard to get into so they are always worse than the low cuts

@Soccerreviewsforyou 4 ай бұрын

I don’t love it on a super shallow playing surface since the studs are still on the longer side. It’s not that you couldn’t wear them, they’re just not ideal if you’re buying boots specifically for that type of playing surface.

I think they’ll work for most people. With that said, if you can go half a size down in a pair of boots that run true to size, that’s the size you should probably be wearing. Until you try them on, it’s always hard to say how they’ll fit you specifically.
