- The Very Best Mercurial Yet
For the untrained eye, the shape and form of this boot does look similar, if not almost identical to the last 2 generations of the Mercurial – the Nike Mercurial Vapor 12/Superfly 6 and the Nike Mercurial Vapor 13. It also comes as no surprise that those last two boots were launched just over a year apart, much shorter than the usual 20-24 month li...
For the first time since Nike had two top-tier Mercurial boots side by side (the mid-cut Superfly and low-cut Vapors), they have given both the boots of this generation a collective name – the Nike Mercurial Dragonfly. Both boots are almost exactly alike save for the mid-cut sock and are priced quite closely too. Personally, I prefer the more sleek...
Despite my gripes about the lack of concept, the Nike Mercurial Vapor 14 still looks amazing. The bright launch colourway is one of the best I’ve seen in years and looks even more stunning in person. What’s a Mercurial without its bells whistles? I loved that Nike added a bit of flair to the boot in the form of the heel tab and the “speed wings”. I...
Straight into my warm ups, I felt a slightly unfamiliar sensation. The ground-breaking anatomical soleplate that has given the Mercurial its X-Factor felt vastly different. For those who have never worn the Mercurial, the inner sole is curved upwards around the mid-foot to rest against your arch to remove any excess space and lock you into the boot...
I like the matte webbed finish because it makes me feel like it’s provides some grip when in contact with the ball. While I don’t think it does give you that much more grip, I felt confident in keeping in control as I dribbled. As you can expect, the thin upper means you get a very close feel of the ball but it doesn’t feel raw. This is where the s...
I had worries about playing on artificial ground (AG) with a firm ground (FG) stud pattern. Nike’s FG studs are notoriously long and don’t fair well on AG which tend to be shallower and harder. The good news is that I hardly felt stud pressure or pain when wearing them. However, I have found them to be extremely clingy and aggressive when it comes ...
I thought its predecessor could have been the best Mercurial ever made if it solved issues with the stiff toebox and if it made the boot’s upper a little softer. With the Nike Mercurial Vapor 14, Nike has vastly improved its formula. It is more comfortable and is even easier to put on – all without compromising on its DNA of excellent lockdown, a c...
Breaking down the key differences and price points between the new range of Nike Mercurial cleats.
Sep 21, 2022 · The Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Vapor 15 is not perfect with that fit and the gimmicky sole but the midfoot lockdown and lovely upper does make up for it. The Mercurial is more comfortable than before and that could only be a good thing.
