A lot of hard work put into this one. Thanks so much for sharing. I just think you overhyped the boots a bit. Next time maybe you could point out a few think you didn't like or think could be improved?
I appreciate that mate! 🤝 I disagree mate - I'm going to be as authentic with my hype as I can be! A lot of (if there are any) drawbacks come when I do the 1 Month Review
The fact that they cost about 150€ it's crazy because everyone should do that meanwhile vapors aren't durable and the materials asics used is more expensive and 10 times more durable 😂! Thanks noah keep doing this i love it !!!!!
@@azn0180 don’t see the video but I received mines today all black with white logo Noah Cavanaugh reviews are always good x fly 5 decent width soft quality leather that after few games will mold to your feet definitely go half size smaller unfortunately ebay seller send me size 10 instead of 10.5 so I will have to send them back and just wait for Nike that’s bringing back the CTR 360 …
Great channel! I'm ready to pull the trigger on picking up a pair of these boots but am hesitant on sizing between 9.5 and 10 M US. I've been rockin NB Tekela 1.0 Pros for a long time in a size 10 and they've been my favorite boot by far for a long time. I picked up the Copa Sense .1 in the same size and over the course of a month of training and pick up games, I could not get those boots to break in around the midfoot and the lacing system doesn't adjust well enough for my wide feet. I end up going back to the Tekelas for any real matches and had planned to wear them until they fall apart 😆 You think 9.5 in Asics would be the move or 10 to play it safe?
Thank you for your detailed review! I ordered this pair and I have to say that I have never worn anything more comfortable! The only problem for me is, that after the second training session they started to open up on the sides and front a little... I now dont know what to do, should i send them back or keep them. They were not that cheap i have to say. Did this happen with your x-fly 5 too?
I'm glad you like them mate, I'm sorry to hear they're ripping on you already. I'd recommend asking for a return/exchange. Otherwise, maybe try playing only on FG pitches with them!
Just honestly wish Asics football boots make a return back to the European/North American markets and do think they can fill in the niche audience area. Whether it’s football boots or sneakers/running shoes I just think Asics really do incredibly well with their footwear products. My girlfriend can attest to that since everyday running shoes are a pair of Asics. They’re heavily heavily slept on the football boots arena. The DS Light X-Fly 4 was one of my heavily rotated boots. Seeing the X-Fly 5 from you I’m definitely interested about this since I’m due to replace my legend 9 elites.
For real...! I hope they're able to get back into the US markets for sure - doing my best to promote them in a way that's also authentic and not just bs. 🔥
I have question about this boot actually, do the Leather worn out or felt not soft after playing on a muddy football field, i meanf after cleaning them up, and may i know how do you manage to protect and clean this asics boot, i have bought one bc of your review! it is a fantastic boot, shooting felt soo powerful and nice, the control is sensational , can’t describe how comfort it is
I have a question for anyone who has these, please... I already the synthetic Pro Limited editions. Love them. My black X fly-5s get delivered tomorrow. My question is this: I usually treat my leather boots with balm every now and then. Does anyone have an opinion on whether that would compromise the Asics Tect treatment at all?
Mois Tect won't really affect the boots that much at all mate, regardless of whether it's there or not. It acts the same way that ACC does - basically nonexistent but good marketing. I would treat the boots with whatever leather food you have!
Hey Noah could you recommend cleats please? I'm looking for something like predator accuracy, maybe just a little snug fit with a thinner upper. Also, do Furon v7 stretch after the break-in period? I haven't played yet, just feel they are kinda tight in the wide version.
They used to have a full leather upper boots in the form of the testimonial boots. Can’t find these boots for some times now. If you know Alessandro Nesta you would know he used to wore them along with David Beckham when he first stated his career before moving to adidas
Asics really need to sell their football boots outside of Asia. And invest some money into sponsorships and endorsement deals. The quality is there and they have a great product. It just needs wider promotion and exposure
With the recent sponsorship of Tomiyasu at Arsenal,I really do hope they make a return to the European and North American markets. The product and quality is always there but as you said they need to do a lot on sponsorship,endorsement deals and also on marketing which is something they need to get a wider exposure.
Would you recommend true to size or half down? Unfortunately I’m a 10.5 in Asics Testimonials (made in Japan leather) and noticing most retailers have the xfly 5’s in 9.5 US, 10 US, and then to 11 US I’ve been contemplating these vs the 4’s (Lockhart boot blog suggested the 5’s but figured id get a second professional opinion lol) Thanks in advance!
Hey Noah buddy, I got wide feet especially at the toe box area and I got the tiempo legend 9 elites in UK 7.5 and the length is practically spot on as I wanted a tight fitting boot (I usually wear UK 8s like you). However the toe box area is a bit cramp and i felt although going up half a size may solve the problem, I wont get that perfect length. Does the x fly 5 have a larger toe box room compared to the tiempo's? If not, which other boot will give me that larger toe box area for the same length? I looked through other of your videos (big fan) and I recalled you mentioned the morelia 2 may have a larger toe box also. Any other recommendations? Thanks!
"speed boot" is a relative term for both those boots mate, it's more that they both have a similar construction. It's up to personal preference at the end of the day! 🔥
Love how you thank us when you do the 2 days cut. Thank you for the effort and bring such quality reviews!
You’re welcome mate! Thank you for watching! 😎
Love that you got a pair of these. They're so good! A fantastic pair of boots!
Agreed! So comfortable 🔥
Man, I just watched that crispy shot on your short video and now the full review, what a great way to start a week. You are the best Noah.
Love it! Thank you for the support mate! 🤝
Nice!
When's the Adler Horenso review coming?
My pair is in transit, can't wait.
Coming soon!
Nice one, thanks mate. Looking forward to getting them on feet, tomorrow.
Love that!
Hey Noah, I think you should do a boot list of your top 5 favorite boots to wear rn w some honorable mentions. I’m curious if these make the list 😁
Cool idea! 🔥
Will you upload one month review?? I really really want to watch it!! I've always enjoyed your all videos. :)
Yes! Absolutely 🔥
thanks, mate.. great review.. get the limited suminigashi edition, cool design..
I'll do my best!
Your reviews are always the best. Do you prefer these Asics DS Light X Fly 5, the Fly 4, or the Nike Phantom GX Elite?
All of them are VERY good 😎

In general how good is the lockdown in leather boots and is lockdown very important?
Depends who you are! I think lockdown is important and it totally depends on the boot 👊🏼
Has been waiting for this. I heard they make a wide version.
Where did you hear that about this particular model x fly 5 wide I don’t see it on the ASICS Japan website ?
I haven't heard that! Would be awesome though... 😎
@Gojart here is the video where this guy said he order a wide version. Not sure if it is x-fly 4 or 5 but I thought it was 5.

Try Asics Ultrezza, Iniesta model
I'll do my best mate!
Yes! I second this! Not Ultrezza 2...that one was terrible compared to the first Ultrezza
Oh, yeah... The "rubbery A lines instep" in XFly4 replaced by Asics logo in the 5...
😂

The Furons stretch a bit, yes! They're a great boot in my opinion. The GX is a good option 🤝
@@NoahCavanaugh thank you
Asics needs to make a full k-leather xfly like they did with the very first xfly, would literally fly off shelves
That would be unreal! To be fair the midfoot area is super thin and feels fantastic on feet, so I don't mind too much
They used to have a full leather upper boots in the form of the testimonial boots. Can’t find these boots for some times now. If you know Alessandro Nesta you would know he used to wore them along with David Beckham when he first stated his career before moving to adidas

@@chanchaniceman exactly. having a good product is only half of the equation. You also have to market said good product well, and in the right places.
This or DS Light X Fly 4 Japan? What are the differences?
I would watch through the entire video mate! Lots of highlighted differences in there 🤝
How much would you say the weigh? Trying to find a pair of running shoes close to weight .
Boots are AMAZING (for anyone on the fence)
Light mate! Less than 7oz for sure 🤝
do u prefer these DS light X Fly 5 or DS light X Fly 4?
Both are fantastic! I reckon 5 is slightly better though 😈
I can't seem to find these for retail. Do you know where I can get a pair?
Ebay
Hey Noah, would you say the high density foam is extra shock-absorption/ extra cushioning on this shoes.
A bit! Feels nice on feet
Hello!! I usually wear 28cm, would you recommend going for 27.5cm on this one? Thanks so much!! amazing video
Definitely 🤝
Hi ! I'm from france and i don't know where to get these boots on the internet, so can you tell me where you bought these please ?
I just saw the description under the video,thank you!
🤝
Would you prefer these or Mizuno neo 3 😮?
These! 🔥
Hey mate, If you would compare this shoes feel / touch on the ball with another shoe what would it be
Mizuno Morelia Neo 4
Should I go for the x fly 4 on discount or x fly 5 full price? I really want one of these after watching this twice.
I'd go for the X Fly 5 - slightly better in almost every way
@@NoahCavanaugh thank you and keep it up, going to follow your offseason training during the summer to improve
How long did it take for it to ship to you? Thanks Noah!
About a week!
Been deciding on coping these, but both colorway of this and the light blue is stressing me out😅 which would you say is your favorite?
Light Blue 😎
@@NoahCavanaughbro, should I go half size down?😂 I see the last ASICS red version video u bought in Us 9, but this one u choose half size down
@@Marco-zc1vb go half size down bro, I got size 10 bc my size is 10 with Nike but it’s way bigger
Which is better xfly4 or xfly5?
Have you watched the video mate? 👀
You choose them over the speed portal 99 leather?
Sometimes!
Hey Noah just wondering if these fit the same as the x fly 4 in terms of sizing?
I'd say so, yeah!
What’s the weight of the boot?
around the 6.5 oz mark I believe, maybe a bit lighter
Does anybody have any idea why Asics does not make this in a size 28.25 / US 10.5?
No idea mate! Maybe small feet?
these or the speedportal 99 leather?
That's a super tough question... Both? lol 😂
How much are they?
$190 I believe!
How can I find these
If you watch the video mate, link is in the description!

Hey bro I’m size 9us on mizuno beta 3 and they fit perfect should I go down a size for this boot ?
Very similar sizing!
Do these go up to a mens 12 or nah?
I'm not sure mate! Check the link where I bought them from - description box
Too sad just received this pair and wore only two times and walaaaa, gum of the sole plate came off😢
No way! 🧐 Hopefully you can get a new pair!
So would you say mizuno morelia neo 3 (non beta) or the ds light dx fly 5? Is the asics also a speed boot?
"speed boot" is a relative term for both those boots mate, it's more that they both have a similar construction. It's up to personal preference at the end of the day! 🔥
Were can you get these in US
Japan prb
No US only international I think
eBay
eBay is your best bet to get something like this since Asics have not sell a single football boots in Europe or North America since the mid 2010s
