Nike United Phantom GX 2 Academy

The Nike United Phantom GX 2 Academy Soccer Cleat is a great casual and club-level cleat. It allows for some flexibility and breathability in your play. It has great traction and the placement of the spikes creates a stable feel on the pitch. Running and playing in these cleats makes me feel like I can play a little longer. Perhaps it is the traction on the underfoot, or the comfort. These cleats have an excellent design and an eye-popping color scheme. I would wear these for casual play, warm-up, or during light club play.

While Low-Tops are not my preference, these cleats were surprisingly great. These do fit snug, so I would go a half size up if you prefer more space. My concern with low tops is the support around the ankle which these did well. The textured uppers really help with feel when dribbling and passing. A super lightweight cleat which is always nice, yet still provides enough support for those sharp turns and pivots. I used these on turf and they worked great. Overall, a great low top option!

The Nike United Phantom GX 2 Academy MG Low-Top Soccer cleats continue a long Nike tradition of infusing cutting edge tech into their performance cleats. The 360 traction is no less than a game changer in how a player is able to adapt to the millisecond that soccer demands of its players. Having the ability to stop at a moments notice, turn, twitch, pivot, and change speeds in an instant without having to think twice makes these cleats so unique. Everyone thats ever kicked a ball around knows, their feet, especially their cleats are thee most crucial part of excelling as a player, thats why its truly remarkable how Nike is able to continue to push the limits of how a cleat can enhance your ability to play the game. Even with how well these cleats are able to increase my confidence in navigating on the pitch, the NikeSkin on the striking side push them to a whole new level. I know not everyone is a striker, but having the added NikeSkin makes it easier to build confidence when you find your opening and want to fire it at the goal.
