    I've been hard on Adidas over the years. Not because I dislike the brand, but because I know they're capable of so much more. While the X "speed" line has been pretty solid for a while now, I think it's safe to say that it has been 2nd best to the Nike Mercurial in the eyes of most consumers. That changes now.
    In today's video we take a closer look at the new Adidas X Ghosted.1, a "speed" boot that introduces a ton of new and exciting tech to rival that of the Nike Mercurial Vapor 13 and Superfly 7! How is similar, how is it different, and perhaps most importantly, how is it better? I go over everything that you need to know. Is the X Ghosted.1 the best "speed" boot of 2020?

    FYI: I went down from my normal 42 to a 41 1/3. This minimized the little bit of extra space I had in a 42 (namely the front of the toe box) and reduced much of the creasing and any collar flair. Fits like a glove really.
    Also, only the FG and SG have carbon fiber in the sole plate - the AG doesn’t. The AG are still wicked nice but lack the sensation of leaning or pushing you onto your toes. Some might actually prefer this, so I’d recommend trying both versions on.
    And, the gold tips on the SG studs are so class. The SG are the real eye catchers.

    Thanks Josh. I'm an Aussie mum with an accomplished AFL playing son and looking for a speed boot. I love learning about the tech in boots. Bought mercurials after one of your reviews and OMG his game exploded in the best way. Loving the second skin aspect of these boots but how would they go protecting the foot when stomped on? Is speed and protection possible in one boot?

      Too be honest, I’d like to see reviewers spending a bit more time in the boots before giving their final say. Many running shoe reviewers take a shoe at least 50 miles before giving their final verdict.
      I’m a bit hung up on this at the moment since I bought a pair of Neo lll Betas off the universal excellent reviews, but anyone who’s spend a decent amount of time in them will know that the material in the heels is crazy stiff and time and again causes chunks of skin to be ripped off. 😓
