Nike Phantom GX Academy FG/MG - Black/Chrome/Hyper Royal
Wrapped around the front of the cleat, the textured NikeSkin mesh enhances your close control when dribbling, providing just the right amount of grip for skillful manipulation of the ball while maintaining a natural feel. It also benefits striking, with the wrap extending along the upper to create a larger contact area – ideal for producing those outrageous arced passes KDB loves to serve up. At the rear, a soft collar provides a snug fit around the ankle, while offset seams and an overall asymmetric design reduce risk of irritation. Traction-wise, the Phantom GX unlocks agility with a mix of cleat types. Tristar cleats at the front and back enable quick side-to-side movement, circular cleats allow you to turn in tight areas, then chevrons at the toe help you accelerate away.
Nike
Starting with “The Nike” back in 1970, the Swoosh’s designs have always led the way when it comes to combining style and performance.
Their modern range includes the ever-popular Mercurial for speed, as worn by the legend that is Cristiano Ronaldo, along with the touch-focused Phantom GT. Or, if you prefer a classic cleat, the more traditional Tiempo and Premier are your go-to options.
Nike offer cleats for all types of surface and levels of play, including their exclusive Anti-Clog editions with soleplates designed specifically for wet, muddy pitches.

Ground Type Guide
Selecting the correct sole plate for the surface you are playing on is crucial, not only for the performance and longevity of your cleats, but also to avoid the risk of injury.
Using an outsole that isn't designed specifically for the surface on which you are playing may cause premature wear and/or damage that will not be deemed as a fault of manufacture and will prevent the retailer accepting them for a refund or exchange.
Firm Ground
Cleats with Firm Ground soleplates are only to be used on natural short-grass surfaces that is firm underfoot but may be slightly wet.
Designed specifically for this playing surface, they offer acceleration, comfort and enhanced traction, dispersing stud pressure evenly across the foot.
FG soleplates are fixed (not removable) and are used worldwide; wetter countries tend to use them spring to autumn.
FG cleats are not to be used on artificial ground (AG) surfaces as the construction is not designed for the extra friction.
FG cleats used on AG surfaces will invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty.
