Let's be honest, despite what big brands hype up through marketing, most football boot "tech" does little to nothing to benefit performance. But every once in a while, we get something truly revolutionary! Nike might have just done that.
After a long 2 year wait, we can finally take a closer look at the Nike Mercurial Air Zoom Ultra! It features a very unique soleplate construction, that incorporates a full-length 4.5mm thick zoom unit, taken from the KD 12 basketball shoes. Why? Well, according to Nike, the tech is all about energy return, and it's a game changer! But is that the truth? How do they actually feel? I share my experience with this new tech, including the feel of the new 3D printed textile upper, giving you a really good idea of what to expect from the future of Nike football boots! Do you think Air Zoom is the next big technology in football boots?

If I'm being honest, the Air Zoom tech isn't that useful on natural grass. It's already a pretty soft surface most of the times.
It'd be more useful on turf boots, as it's basically carpet on top of a concrete base, where cushioning takes more importance.
Turf and futzal shoes
Just hope Nike takes it to their indoor,turf and futsal shoes rather than just on their boots
AG’s for sure. Texas natural pitches are too hard for FG anyway.
Play in Texas where the ground is hard as hell even when it's grass.
I feel like they should concentrate the zoom cushioning under the studs themselves, where pressure will be highest
Yeah but the spongy thing runs out but if you place some on the inside your takeoff is slower
Two issues with that. 1.) An inconsistent feel underfoot. Going from foam to air and back to foam in a bunch of places with result in lumps and bumps that would be very uncomfortable underfoot. 2.) when the air bags are that small the area for the pressure to disperse is non existent. They would need to be so hard that they would be uncomfortable or they would be soft and mushy and not provide the desired effect. The only way around that would be tubes between them to allow them send air back and forth but that would be too thick and cumbersome for a football boot. Maybe someday they could make it work. But the tech is not nearly there yet.
@@killercobra107 exactly, full length zoom was the only way to go
First thing first kudos on you still making the video given how many of us has waited on your take for this haha and I do think some of the tech will carry on the next generation Vapor and superfly
Nike used a full length zoom unit (it was in the insole, not built into the boot) in 1996/7 on the Air Rio Zoom boots. It’s my opinion that this is the best boot Nike has ever made. It might have been before your time.
That boot was amazing, leather and zoom. Ronaldinho's Air Legend was fantastic too though, shape was perfect even from new
This feels like what Boost in Adidas boots circa 2016 was supposed to be! (I remember Josh’s reviews from the time in which boost was present in adidas boots)
That was useless. The amount of Boost used felt no different from a regular insole. This is very different.
It was too thin unfortunately
Was waiting for this one !!
Thanks for making videos Josh
Hi Josh! i was wondering if you will review the New Balance Tekela V3+ Pro LEATHER, there is also a new Furon leather but the Tekela one seems more interesting..
Hey Jermaine I’m looking to get a pair of indoor shoes. Can you review the Nike Premier III IC Indoor Soccer Shoe? Or if you have tried it out what do you think?
I have it in my kd 14s and it gives me like a inch of bounce on my jump, it feels so nice
when they unveiled the KD12, I was mindblown with the Zoom Strobel... they can use the tech on ALL shoes and improve their comfort level drastically... it took what, 3 years before they actually implement it on futbol boots.
Dont understand these.. why would i want to be 5 mm further away from the ball just to get some cushioning ?
Josh still forgetting that the Air Zoom unit that's on the most recent Mercurial Vapor 14 Pro TFs. Love the feel of the cushioning on those, my feet/heels thank me for those.
Didn’t they already have the air zoom tech in the Tiempo Legend 2s?
I remember my pair having a air pad in the heel and the insole was fitting around it.
I talk about that a little in the video. Definitely not the first time Zoom Air has been used in football boots, but never anything like these.
@@Soccerreviewsforyou Nice!
Hope all is well in your life Josh!
Nike tried the full length zoom last year in the Infinity Tour golf shoes…despite the hype the shoe was a flop, being too unstable and narrow. The recent updates version ditched the full length zoom for two zoom pods on the ball of the foot similar to the next% running shoes….
It kind of feels like Nike throws running shoe tech at their golf shoes and sees what sticks…does it feel like that with these?
Nike zoom is the best thing ever, my kd14s are crazy
I’ve used my pair for three practice sessions, four pick up sessions, and three full-field games. And they seemed pretty comfy compared to my tiempo legends. No stud pressure and they feel amazing on my feet. Is it the zoom unit? Could be but the fields I play on are really nice so it might be a big part due to the field. I don’t feel any “energy return” but still a good boot.
does anyone know when the eclipse pack for the Puma future z 1.3 come out ? i only see it in uk stores but not in us stores
The ends are gonna love these
Nothing compares to the zipper tho😤😤
I think the grass is soft and absorbing so the zoom air unit doesn't have a solid foundation to build on, training your legs is just more beneficial than a piece of tech, I love zoom on the hardwood playing basketball, but I prefer barefoot feelings running on the grass
After some sleep, my previous comment reminds me of the Umbro UX Accuro 3 with the foam on forefoot/toebox area, etc. I looked at what they are offering now and they have two K-Leather boots, one with IDRO K-Leather, both with the D3O tech, that they call the Tocco Pro and the upcoming Tocco 2. They describe the boots as "the superior control of a classic leather boot with the lightweight profile of a speed boot." I always remember that Umbro boots tend to be narrow and usually do not suit people with wide feet.
Ever considered a review of them?
man i miss the flyknit nike vapors.
they were super comfortable
As long as you’re running on grass, any cushioning tech probably will never be noticeable ever
if this feels like the teijin synthetic upper then it's a win for me
I used to wear a version of T90 that has MAX air for training and leisure playing. It felt very cushioned but too soft for competitive scenarios.
As someone who's worn Nike Vapor Carbon Flys (Am. football/lacrosse cleats) which had Air Zoom pods, all the way back in 2010s, I can say while Zoom is bloody comfortable as a cushion, it has no business taunting about "responsiveness"/"energy return", especially so with a full-length unit. I forgot if it's ever been implemented in baseball cleats as well, but fundamentally you can't have a zoom unit thick enough to be bouncy and thin enough to be used in a cleat, you know, the whole can't have the cake and eat it too thing. Can't believe they're still trying to pass it off as an energy return tech
Don't know about the tech, but absolutely loving the colourway.
Everytime Josh said impact protection I was thinking if there was a layer from the bottom of the laces to the toe box as well, I wonder if it would provide protection for the forefoot and how it would impact of striking the ball. Comfort, some protection and maybe some energy directed into the ball?
No energy return, but it would dampen the feel
Make a video about Nike Tiempo Legend 9 Pro 🙏
For me the most important thing a football boot must has is comfort. It's crucial to be comfortable and fresh after 70 minutes of running.
What's your on pitch boot ?
Do a review on the Adidas Mo Salah F50 Adizero IV
My old feet will be thankful for these. Lol
When they get this perfect I think it should be a new type of Nike boot because Nikes boots right now are pretty good I think it would be better this way so people can get others just in case they don’t like it and like original mercurials.
Now Adidas needs to add full length boost in this thickness, and i will be very happy. Boost>any cushioning setup
Wasn't there a T90 back in the day with Zoom air in the heel?
Which grade would you put this boots at? A or S?
I can’t wait until Nike releases more pairs
Real like love these boots, everything! However, I don’t like the colour way, I’d much rather a black the original black pair.
They should've made the zoom stroble 6 ml
You going to review the Nike mercurial vapor next nature??? We’ve already seen the zoom reviews.
They haven’t actually released yet, just an unveil.
@@Soccerreviewsforyou they have in the uk I have a pair, just interested in hearing yours or Jay mike’s take on them.
@@Soccerreviewsforyou when do you think they’ll release
@@Soccerreviewsforyou My Bootnerd review of the Nike mercurial vapor next nature is, it’s like a Nike Mercurial Vapor 10 blended with a adidas f50/x ghosted I’m really enjoying them.👍🏼
I would love to see this tech in TF soles
there is
Having these in hand… an X Speedflow+ is a more impressive boot for me. I do like them.. but the upper seems even more plasticy than the current Vapor 14!
I play basketball but wanna start training on grass for agility n stuff. Should I get a soccer boot for that, or an American Football cleat?
Soccer cleats are more low profile and are in my opinion easier to move around in.
As cool as this is, gotta say... no other football boot offers this kind of cushioning? Asics has entered the chat. I own a pair of the Lethal Tigreor IT FF first edition, and my gosh, the thin Flyte foam midsole feels just like a sneaker. Not to mention a nice kangaroo leather upper spanning most of the upper. Payed 11 or 12 bucks for them too at an op shop
I'm hoping for ASICS boots reviews... What about the Menace 4 ?
Acc tech goodbye
I feel like Air Zoom tech on firm ground boots that are designed for agility and speed doesnt make sense. Natural glass is very shock absorbent as it is, what you want from speed boots is responsiveness and tranction. Gimmicky tech to justify an absolutely ridiculous pricepoint.
I was fortunate enough to cop a pair in my size. Currently recovering from ACL surgery so my pair hasn’t hit the field. I’m curious on how they’ll feel once I get back at it. Great review!
I'm only here for the sock shill.
Have u seen the boots from NASA??? They are sexy to me

No Josh I don’t like them they just look like shoes football turf shoes from back in the back in the day like 80s you know like the kangaroo football shoes they should of done something better than that with the front of the boot
