Nike Magista Obra 1

Softens up over time; a great fit for all foot types.

Do the Nike Magista Obra 1 run true to size?

The Nike Magista Obra 1 is true to size for most players, running about a quarter size short. That only matters if you fall between sizes — a clean whole size should take their usual size.

Sizing

This model runs true to size, with a slight quarter-size small lean. Footwear comes in half sizes, so only if you're between sizes or want a roomier fit, consider going up half a size.

The fit, explained

The knit is soft against the foot even though it does not stretch much, so pressure is spread rather than concentrated. The square apex suits even-length toes.

A soft knit control boot with a square toe box that suits Roman and Celtic shapes.

Break-in: The knit relaxes noticeably over the first few sessions.
