I purchased these about 2 months ago, and have had a few problems with the cleat. For example for the first 3 weeks of wearing these (where I practiced almost every day other than Saturday) the area around where the swoosh ended, around the start of my small toe, I had encountered a good amount of discomfort, however, I acknowledged that I just had to let the boot adjust to my foot. I haven't encountered any problem with this part of the boot ever since. Another problem in my opinion is the tongue, or in this case since its a knitted upper the sock. Although (as is the rest of the shoe) it is very comfortable, it tore after maybe the first hard tackle I had on that part of the shoe. Other flaws: Lacing system on the inside of the shoe is thick and hard to lace a little. swoosh begins to peel off, however, minimally. This cleat has a lot of upsides as well though, for example it's comfort and feel for the ball. I don't know if this would make sense to anyone but myself but I feel more explosive, and compared to the Vapor 12 the sole plate does not peel off and I haven't seen any signs of peeling in the 2 months I've been wearing it.

I only had the boot for about a month and the whole left sole plate tore off, currently the right one is as well but there was no need to break them in and did good while they lasted:(

This is a perfect boot. It fits nicely it preforms to a very high standard and is a very high quality product and worth every penny.
