Nike Tiempo Legend 10 Elite

These are some of the best cleats I've ever owned. The fabric is a really nice leather feel, and is very high quality. It has a really clean design. The black with the light blue swoosh and spikes is a sweet contrast. I also really like the sock addition by the ankle. It is really soft and helps a lot with stability when I'm cutting. Using these cleats, there is a noticeable difference in my control of the ball. I have a lot more control and the softness of the leather helps me have a lot softer touches compared to other cleats. They are also very lightweight which makes me feel a lot quicker on the ball. Like most Nike soccer cleats, they run a little small and are a little narrow, so I would recommend going a half size up. However, other than them running a little small, they are a brilliant pair of cleats.

I want to start off and say that these cleats are gorgeous. The colorway is simplistic but very striking and compliments the small details of the cleats. I just love the design and it’s pretty easy to clean too. The material of the upper is soft. When juggling or dribbling the ball, the cleats feel pretty good and I’m able to control it well. However, the sizing is a bit narrow. Upon first wear, the inside of the cleats seemed a bit tight and hard, which is a bit of a contrast with its soft upper. I’ll have to admit, it didn’t agree with my feet at first. But after a couple of wear, they seem to break in a bit and become softer. Also, the ankle area is also a bit tight but not uncomfortable. I would recommend going up half a size, due to its narrowness. What I like most is how sturdy and light it is when practicing. I can feel how stable it is and how agile I can move. Overall, it’s a beautiful pair of cleats but runs a bit narrow, but I do recommend them if you like going for leather cleats instead of knits.

Coming from the Legend 10 academy which I enjoy playing in and have been my go to soccer shoes, I finally got a chance to try the legend 10 Elite and what I can tell the difference is how well I seem to run a bit quicker, more agile. It feels great on my feet, the fit is a bit tight, maybe I can go 0.5 size up but my true to size is 8.5 so it’s snug. The quality is fantastic, good traction and I enjoy the extra cushioning. The new technology of extra flex groove is probably what makes my cuts/directionals gives that extra edge. I read that it’s made of recycled content which is a huge plus since we can go through soccer cleats rather quickly if used daily an/or new designs are available. The materials are super nice with the soft leather, grips better and some added design touches make them sleek. One thing I would like to change is the flyknit mesh when I tried putting them on around the ankle which’s to me was a challenge so maybe design that area so it’s a smooth slip in action and not stuck trying to put them in while a game is happening . Overall I’m impressed with it and looking to put it to the field many times over.
