Nike Phantom 6 High Academy

Een hele mooie schoen die ook goed om je voet zit en zeker het geld waard.

I used these cleats on a turf field and came away impressed overall. I have high arches and slightly wider feet, so most cleats require a break-in period before they feel comfortable. When I first received them, they were noticeably stiff. I'd highly recommend wearing them around the house or for a few short sessions before taking them straight onto the field. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to break mine in properly, and I could definitely feel the stiffness during my first game. Once on the field, however, they performed very well. The traction on turf was excellent, providing solid grip for quick cuts and changes of direction. The textured "Gripknit" elements on the upper also seemed to add a bit of extra control and spin on the ball when striking or passing. My only real drawbacks are the initial stiffness and the high sock collar, which can make getting your foot into the boot a little awkward until you get used to it. I also wish the upper had a slightly softer feel right out of the box. Overall, I'd rate the Nike Phantom 6 High Academy **4 out of 5 stars**. With a proper break-in period, they're a comfortable, high-performing cleat with excellent traction and good ball control, especially for players who spend most of their time on turf.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased these as an alternate option for when playing on turf. I have the firm ground version and was hoping these would be as comfortable. They are.
