Always brings a smile to my face seeing 442s get more love. They're fantastic. Especially bc of the comfort and weight let alone the price. New balance are my favorite brand.
Had gotten a pair of Tekela V3 pro’s on a crazy deal for 50 but the stitching and inner heel portion started coming apart. Set up a return and ordered a pair of these for like 60 bucks and am super excited to get them and try them out.
Really good shoes, but i’m always struggling with sole separation and I experienced this issue immediate immediately after a couple of training sessions
I have a pair of the non-special editions, which i picked up on sale for $65. Quite easily my go to. I also have a pair furon 7s. Imo, especially if you pick em up on sale, they are one of the best boots even comparing them to top tier speed boots. Weight alone to me is ridiculous, that they measure up to top tier Mercs and I think they weigh as much as the crazyfast.1. My only gripe would be the build quality could be better. But for the price i picked them up for im quite happy
Just an idea for a video, it'd be really cool to see a head-to-head between these and the Mizuno Morelia 2 Elites to get the answer to which "modern classic" leather boots truly are the pound-for-pound champion! Keep up the great content 🙂
At the end of the day, I don’t do weight because I don’t think it makes a difference. I’ve worn boots of all types at the top level and it makes very little change to play
Like the boots but having owned the v1’s, I’d hope they fixed the issues. Those ran 1/2 size big, would always come loose no matter how tightly tied, & started giving heel pain after 20min of wear. Start/stop/cuts became painful. I ultimately relegated them to wear while coaching micro (5-6yo players).
Those are alright, some look real nice. They're shallow as heck though. The heel area in the back feels loose, and the middle lace area of the tongue is thin. Doesn't affect the tightening of laces, but not my cup of tea. Need more lockdown. These new balance are crazy comfortable. Open toe box is a revelation
go to a store and try it on and you can tell immediately that the Gloro is not worth the time compared to the 442. The leather on the gloro is very very thick and low quality.
Hi Noah, am gonna buy these boots after your review! But a question, how much room do you always leave in the front side of the boots! I always have the problem that when the width is perfect, I have so much space left at my toes, like a thumb size. Even with wide boots like the tiempo or morelia II. Thanks!!
I got the black colorway with some red accents, the boots are nice but I’ve got hell blisters twice from 2 separate events. I don’t know if I should ditch them or keep them until is fully broken in.
Class mate! Those area super clean looking. Sorry to hear you've had blisters! If they keep giving you blisters but the rest of the shoe fits well, it's probably worth investing in a different pair
ive been using phantom venom elites for 3 years. do you think it would be too much of a change going to these? looking at tiempo 10 elites otherwise, I like the lockdown of Phantom venoms, but dont want the mercurial full flyknit feeling on toe box, like abit more material on toe box
Class! Nothing really feels like those Phantom Venoms anymore - maybe the GX but those are about the closest thing you'll get to them nowadays. If you're going to change silos/move on, you might as well just go for it and see what you like best!
My brother Will try to get them preds 94 like I told you previously. On the off chance I don't get them I want to try the 442s as I love the grey pack colorway. You sure I should go true to size tho? Like not even half size down to counter the stretching?
If you were to do a one month review on this silver version (which is not 100% K leather), what specific differences would you note from the one month review you did on the gold 100% K leather version?
1) better midfoot lockdown 2) similar shape/sizing 3) Still stupid lightweight and durable The MAIN thing I found is actually that over time, the midfoot performed better because it didn't over-stretch like the all-leather model did!
I was wondering between these or the Predator Accuracy+ (laceless) I got wide feet and was wondering which would would fit better and which one would last longer
Thinking about getting the 442 team version pro is not available anymore here. Do you think the pro team version is good enough? Do you know the difference?
They do a little bit, I'd say the adler is much thinner and more barefoot feeling, but the lockdown of these wins out and the shape of these feels SUPER natural on feet for me
Appreciate your videos! More than that, appreciate how you're able to respond to all the comments (which is A LOT)! How would the regular 442 models compare to the predator accuracy in terms of width?
No worries mate 🤝 I'll keep trying my best! I'd say they're wider overall, although out of the box the Predator's toe box feels a bit wider while the midfoot feels much thinner
How these compare to the Morelia II Elite? I can get them for about the same price as these. By the way, I got the golden one of these and I loved them
Tried both NB 442 v2 pro black color and Morelia II Elite on my very wide feets. You can tell out of the box that Mizuno build quality is better than NB (442 are still very well made tbh). Unfortunately Morelia II soleplate was not wide enough for my feet - I have this problem will almost all FG/SG cleats. NB 442 FG fit like TF/indoor shoes with I found to be the most comfortable/stable cleats for my wide feet I ever tried. 442 are also lighter (177g) than Mizuno Morelia II Elite (~240g). Sadly had to sent back my pair of 442s because center hell support red thing in right shoe was slightly off-center with in result gave me nasty blisters after only 30min of playtime. Now I'm waiting for refund and I think I'll order 442s again but this time half size smaller.
@@cnk191 Thanks for the comment. I bought the NB 442 v2 pro limited edition, the golden one. I have wide feet and never gave me any blisters. This was more than one year ago and the boots are starting to break down, I play 3-4 times a week on average, so not too bad I would say. I liked them so much that I am thinking of buying them again. Allegedly the non-limited edition has a lot less leather, only the forefoot, not sure if that is true, but that's what most reviewers say. The thing is I can also get the Mizuno Morelia II Elite for the same price or even cheaper. The Elite are not a takedown model as such but surely they are not anywhere close to the MIJ quality, I was just wondering if they are better, then I am better off buying the Mizuno then.
My pair is almost completely broken after just 6 months. Laughable quality... They started coming apart from the sole plate on day one and the weak synthetic material now has some tears in it. I am so disappointed, because I really love the fit and feel. They were one of the most comfortable boots ever for wide feet.

Great boots!! Have had it for a week or 2 and I’m LOVING them

Sounds good mate! These are still $70-100 cheaper than the elite model though 👀
Is that so? 🤔Where I'm from (Sweden) they are roughly the same price, with the Mizuno being only 20-30 dollars more expensive
it would be cool to see not just for this boot but for all cleats to include a weight test too
At the end of the day, I don’t do weight because I don’t think it makes a difference. I’ve worn boots of all types at the top level and it makes very little change to play
Great timing. Just got back from a morning sesh breaking a pair of 442 Pros I just got (on sale $90). Tried them out bc of your first review! Cheers 🍻

I would like to see a review of Mizuno Morelia Neo IV pro or what are you thought on them
Okay mate! I'll do my best. No promises though
What shoes are the white crocks a like ones that u are wearing before de NB? They look great for pre game!
They're class mate! They're called Kane Footwear

Hey Noah, can you ranks these boots on how padded they are 1 being most padded 3 being least padded, tiempo 10, Copa pure and the tekla v4 pro low
1) Copa
2) Tekela

How much is the differences between the shoe’s padding
these look fire!!

get the 2E version true to size. it's gonna fit u well i assure. I have almost 6E width and i tried these on and they fit comfortably

Dang! I'd try the GX!
what are the name of the slides that you were wearing?
Kane Footwear
Are these comfortable for passing and shooting and does it take away the sting of the shooting and passing
Yes mate, so long as they're comfortable for YOUR feet.
Which one would be a better choice the 442? Or the tiempo 10 pro? Thank you 🙏
442 🤝
Hey Noah if i got same prize for morelia 2, which one i have to pick up compare with nb442?
If the Morelia 2 MIJ is also $130 then I would buy that instead of the 442.
You have the full K leather all gold ones right? Those are the best ones
I wish New Balance made the 442 in full k leather and not just the limited gold ones
I used to, yeah!
My brother
Will try to get them preds 94 like I told you previously. On the off chance I don't get them I want to try the 442s as I love the grey pack colorway.

@@NoahCavanaughDo they fit your midfoot where it’s the widest? I have the dame type of foot shape as you.
Hi Noah, I am looking for a pair of boots among the 3. Which would you recommend?
(1) Nike Premier 3
(2) Adidas Copa Pure 2.1
(3) New Balance 442 V2
Whichever FIT you the best mate! My pick would be the 442
In your opinion, which model do you consider better, these 442 or the Morelia Neo IV Pro
Haven't tried the Morelia Neo IV pro, so I'd probably say the 442.

How’s the new season going, is 7mlc still with you guys? Don’t seem to see him playing in your analysis games on your channel
Well mate! You should ask him! 🤝
These are now available with an AG soleplate

I’m gonna do the same, getting the black ones

Is the regular 442 still good for wide feet because Recently ordered without knowing there was a wide feet version ??
Yes

Do you recommend these boots for strikers/Wingers?
Only if they fit your foot! Boots have NOTHING to do with what position you play

Can you review the mid cut predator accuracy
Already did the low top and the high top mate! The mid cut is the same boot as the low top with some extra material around the ankle
@@NoahCavanaugh was there any difference in lockdown or not
Laces always has better lockdown! no difference in the two laced models @@williamjohnson421
@@NoahCavanaugh thanks 👍
Noah, do these compare to the Adler Horenso? If so, which do you prefer?
They do a little bit, I'd say the adler is much thinner and more barefoot feeling, but the lockdown of these wins out and the shape of these feels SUPER natural on feet for me
Are the “Team” version comparable or more inferior?
inferior mate, as it usually is with take down models 🤝
You need to try and get your hands on a pair of Asics Lethal Testimonial 4 boots. Old school Predator style, with a fold over tongue as well.
We'll see mate! 😎
Appreciate your videos! More than that, appreciate how you're able to respond to all the comments (which is A LOT)!
How would the regular 442 models compare to the predator accuracy in terms of width?
No worries mate 🤝 I'll keep trying my best!
I'd say they're wider overall, although out of the box the Predator's toe box feels a bit wider while the midfoot feels much thinner
Are they mor wide than furon
Yes
Can you please make a vid on the new Mbappe boots ❤
Probably not mate! They're the exact same as the normal vapor 15/superfly 9 which I already have videos on
How these compare to the Morelia II Elite? I can get them for about the same price as these. By the way, I got the golden one of these and I loved them

Tekela lows vs. 442s? If money were no object and playing exclusively on ag?
