Nike ティエンポ リゲラ プロ

Overall great shoes. One of the best I played in. The material selection is great. The ball just sticks to it. Great for controlling the ball. I normally wear size 11 but ordered 10.5 and they fit perfectly. Highly recommended.

Wore these right out of the box and into a game, and wow, what a boot! As with all turf and indoor models, I went a half size up from my usual 9 US to a 9.5, and they fit perfectly. They molded and broke-in in less than a half hour, and felt like slippers I’ve worn for years. With Nike’s previous attempt at a synthetic leather in the Tiempo 10 I was left skeptical. I was genuinely shocked by the new TechLeather material. It is very close to actual leather, like 95% there in terms of plushness and feel. Heel design is good, with decent padding, and isn’t much of an issue. The turf outsole works great, with its ReactX midsole giving an ok amount of cushion, and is fine on dry AG pitches. But, I have two, small, critiques. 1) I’m not a big fan of how they stitched one side of the tongue to the upper towards the bottom eyelets, it makes it a little difficult to keep the tongue straight. 2) An extra lace hole at the top to be able to do the runners loop is always appreciated, especially on a boot with a fairly open heel design. Other than that, I’m really happy with these. I certainly plan to add more of the Ligera in future colorways to my collection.

I have wide feet and usually have issues slipping into my mercs and I thought the new phantom elites were solid… oh boy, these are easily better than elites in my opinion. Right of out of the box they felt as if I owned them for years.
