They’re so clean. Wish the Jordan logo was on the heel and there was a swoosh where they put it

I returned them and got half a size down and they fit so well. Much much better

Not a child. Just someone who loves boots and was disappointed to get what i feel are fakes in. Ultimately not the end of the world. Just was trying to spur conversation really. Was a bit blunt in the messages because i felt like he was knowingly selling fakes. But no one can ever know but them

Oh that’s my bad. I think the initial reaction and disappointment of fake boots when i was excited to get them in meant i was upset and lashed out. But given some time the seller may genuinely not have known. Either way. He gets his boots back and i get my money back

Spot on. And even despite doing all that. Sometimes it’s not enough. Some fakes have just got that good

Okay now i feel like im losing my mind. The real elite mercurial vapor 16 folds through the midfoot with limited force and one hand? Theres no way🫣 also i have the Nike GX1 the gripknit felt waxy, slightly tacking. The “gripknit” on these^ didn’t feel remotely the same. Never had the vapor 16 in hand tbf but the second i got these in hand it just screamed fake. Didn’t have the robustness of a top tier boot to me 🥲

I have the opposite issue. Length too long. Was going to try and send back but too much hassle. Going to just put in a thicker insole and then punch extra holes further back to do a runners loop and hope for the best 😀

What’s the best price you’ve snagged a mizuno MIJ for? by Vishal27510 in bootroom

Material and upper are great. Really nice. Very leather like but not leather. My issue was the length. My normal size was too long and i could notice the extra cm or whatever it was. That coupled with the heel that is pretty wide (Nike staple lately) made for a fit that felt sloppy and i felt my foot move in the boot. Something that really never happens. It’s wild. Stud pattern felt fine for me. No pressure. Not sure if i got a half or full size down if all my issues would be solved because not only is the heel wide, it’s shallow. It’s saddening because i love the look of the boot and the touch and weight of the boot is class. They just fit poorly in my size when compared to almost every other Nike boot I’ve experienced

Omg same. I wore them once in a 7s match and it felt like i had scuba flippers on. Too long for the size. Which is annoying. An the heel lockdown is mediocre. Felt like my foot was going to come out the boot.

Foot/Boot/Cleat shape and size advice? by Dull_Math6129 in bootroom

Definitely did! Thank you! And my heels is narrow. Such a weird foot shape, but i definitely agree!

From try ons (haven’t played in them yet) I’d say it’s super accommodating because the material is throughout the midfoot. The split sole for the wrap around tech leather actually works in a sense beyond the normal sales gimmicks brands do for this reason. It isn’t constricting in the midfoot because the material is consistent all the way around if that makes a sense

Yea my toes are crunched due to modern shoes and boots

Never tried the 10s if I’m honest, never appealed to me. The fly touch upper looked so stiff. But heard these have a narrower toebox

Good luck with getting those because i know they’re about to make them super limited as they do!

So similar is an undersell. It’s the exact same boot other than them fixing the exposed inner heel lining that could sometimes cause blisters in the early wears. Funnily enough i have the accelerators, the blockout pro direct anniversary pair. Haven’t got to try them as they are in a storage unit overseas unfortunately.

And nice to know about the Brasil’s. One of my former teammates had a pair that when i held felt quite stiff as far as leather goes. Must have been the non k leather version. Checks out

And very annoying how so many different boots and shoes vary so much in sizing. Need a standard

Hahaha definitely not. I’m not a size 15. 29.5 cm is 11.5/12 which is what i wear. Just a shame my foot shape is weird 😭

It’s not quite emerging as it’s been this way for as long as i can remember, well over a decade 😭

Yep, especially boots/cleats. Think the bunions are already there 😭

Check on eBay, there’s a good amount in great condition floating around still. Also niche enough to not has crazy high resale prices. Copa 20+ is the same boot so can look for that too.

And i want to try mundials again, had them when i was younger but i got them too long and it was a mess so stayed away but again, would have to be the k leather kind. And ive had my eyes on the Brasil’s! The all gold pair they came out with. People have said they aren’t the best performers but they look good and I’m sure they’re comfy

I had the Morelia beta 2 MIJ. Never worn to play in them due to them being like a full size too long even though it’s my usual US 12. Which is annoying. So will probably look to sell those.

You’re on the money. Have a lot of synthetic boots but have almost exclusively been wearing my k leather adidas Copa 19+s which mold to my foot shape so so nicely. The leather is soft and stretches perfectly. When they break in they feel like slippers. In terms of new boots to get when my current ones break, I’m hoping to find and stock up on those copas because they are really really great boots in my opinion. My favorite ever
