Nike Phantom GT Elite FG

Going to save you some time on these if you have wide feet. Great material, love the touch on the ball but terrible for wide feet. Left major blisters on the heel. Wore them for a full 90 min match and had swollen sides of my feet by the end of them after training with them for weeks. Loved the Hypervenoms I, II and III. Even owned a few pairs of the Phantom VNM but these will not suit wide feet, go with the Tiempos instead.

Product is good and packaged well. However the product does fit larger than other previous football boots I’ve had before from Nike and trying to contact about exchanging sizes was difficult to find and always resorted to contacting an automated system online.

Back in the days, Magista and Mercurial were lovely boots that I could never wear. They were both very narrow boots that didn't fit well on my feet. I've been left with two options: the great Hypervenom Phantom and Nike Tiempo, which has a nice vintage look, but don't carry the latest technology Nike has to offer. I bought 4 or 5 pairs of the top tier Hypervenom in the last decade and been the happiest customer ever. However, the evolution of Hypervenom, now called Nike Phantom GT is designed for the narrow feet players, following the same shape as Magista and Mercurial. What a shame. I had to go for one size bigger, which feels comfortable on the sides, but leaves an empty gap in front of my toes. If you have wide feet, don't buy it.
