• You're a classic style lover, and this model definitely hits the target.

Impressive outsole of Nike Premier II

The Premier II Firm Ground utilizes a light TPU outsole that provides comfort and flexibility. The sole allows the feet to stay close to the ground to facilitate better turns and twists.

With the sole's innate flexibility, the cleat gains stability and a springy fit that allows an optimum launch.

The outsole has a molded conical firm ground studs that provide targeted traction for natural grass surfaces.

Nike Premier II Firm Ground's high-grade construction

The front upper of the Premier II Firm Ground is made from very soft and flexible kangaroo leather while high-quality leather lines the rest. These two types of leather adapt to the foot perfectly, ensuring a high level of comfort. The leather upper also allows for a close, cushioned touch on the ball and a superior feel and control.

The cleat entrance also offers an anatomical fit that supports the ankle well. Moreover, the heel cap with a suede material offers added comfort.

A key update of the cleat is the small flap tongue over the top of the laces. A Velcro is added underneath the flap to help keep it locked down during games. This update is more of an aesthetic than a functional one.
