    The Mizuno made in Japan product line has its incredible reputation for a reason. Amazing quality, amazing comfort, and the finest kangaroo leather on the market! But what if they did something completely different? No leather at all?
    In today's video we take a closer look at the latest white and gold colorway of the Mizuno Alpha Japan, Mizuno's riskiest football boots in a long time, and also one of the most expensive! For that reason, they haven't been as popular as the Morelia alternatives, nor have they been on the radar of most people shopping for a pair of "speed" boots. I myself haven't even recommended them because of the price tag! But what if I told you they were $100 less? We discuss the good, the bad and why you might want to consider what it realistically one of the most underrated football boots on the market! At what price would you consider the Mizuno Alpha?

    I just got these in AG Japan version. After a 3-4 games of use, I can confirm these are levels above Vapor 15 Crazyfast.1 and Crazyfast+. I haven’t enjoyed a pair of cleats this much since the black/green leather F50’s or the Vapor 10 so I had to order the FG version as well to test the soleplate. I’ve also always been a size 10 across every pair mentioned including tiempos, but I went down 1/2 a size and they fit perfect. At first they were good with thin grip socks from Wefoot and now they also fit with the regular cushion ones as well.

    The thing about synthetics, does not matter if they are made in Japan or Germany, it is always going to be the same. Their leather models are different because they source better skins and treat them well, all before the build process. With a plastic, you realistically do nothing to make it better than another plastic, so with the Alpha, it only comes down to assembly and the special plastic in the plate

    that plastic under the insole is surprisingly helpful to my foot movement especially for a better responsiveness. I didn’t have a chance to try the crazyfast plus, but .1LL, Copa+, Ultra, Predator, even Morelia neo 4 beta, and non-beta and these alpha are my favorites especially on turf in the winter time. in specific when they are about $220 or less.

    Not that some time has passed, would you still wear them in a size 9.5 or would go down to a size 9? The reason I ask is because based off the reviews you do, it seems as if we have the same foot size. I may just buy both sizes and keep the one that fits best.

      I can't see the Mizuno enerzy foam in the AG version. The soleplate seems to have less rebound when bending compared to the FG. I had the AG and FG side by side and I'm sending the AG back. Just didn't like the feel of the soleplate. The FG version is fine for AG pitches, just don't step on anyone

      If you don’t want to over pay I would suggest the Alpha Elite. I have both the MJ and Elite models and you can’t tell a difference.
      In the Neo model you can tell a difference between the MJ and Elite model but even then it’s minimal. In the Alpha, the biggest difference is found in the running bird, the MJ model is texturized and the Elite isn’t.
      Hopefully that helps, if you have more questions I’d be happy to answer them from my point of view since I own both models.

    Having a $320 pair made in Japan model when you have an alternative $200 pair that more or less shares the same features just somewhat makes it pointless. $320 for a pair of football boots is a bit of a nonsense these days even if it’s leather or made in countries like Italy,Germany and Japan. While I don’t deny MIJ alpha is a great pair but again the $320 pricetag is just too steep to pay
