The build quality of this boot is very good, and the fact that this isn’t the top of the Predator line (the Powerswerve holds that title) makes the quality even more appreciated. Comfortable fit with no blistering. Also one gets a very good feel of the ball. I switched from a Nike Total90 Laser I (which was a good boot in my opinion) to this and the tactile feel was immediately apparent.
Two drawbacks. The boot apparently can’t be laced up to the very top. Examining the picture at high zoom will show the laces going to the highest eyehole and loop on the shoe. I find that the lace can’t be threaded through the top eyehole (not the tongue, the other side). Maybe it’s just my boot, but what this means is that I can’t get a snug fit at ankle level.
The other issue is that there is a pressure point just at the level of the arch of my foot. It doesn’t correspond to any of the studs, but feels like something is pressing up into my foot when I run in them. There is no subsequent bruising or blistering, and I tend to be able to ignore it once the match is well underway, but it is still annoying.
