Nike Vapor 16 Elite Mercurial Dream Speed FG – 8.5UK

Obsessed with speed? So are the game’s biggest stars. That’s why we made these Elite boots with an improved 3/4-length Air Zoom unit. It gives you and the sport’s fastest players the propulsive feel needed to break through the back line. The result is the most responsive Mercurial we’ve ever made, because you demand greatness from yourself and your footwear. This special version encourages you to chase your own destiny with all-out optimism.

Believe in yourself
The distorted pattern along the forefoot speaks to the big breakthrough moment, when confidence carries you further than you thought possible. The calmer, smoother tones along the heel represent being present in the moment. Blue encourages better mind flow and performance. Orange promotes focus, concentration and creativity. The metallic chromes nod to goals and successes.

Exceptional touch
Nike Gripknit is a sticky material that provides better touch to the ball. It takes up more surface area, so you have more room to control the ball when dribbling at high speeds or finish a play with a shot on goal. It moulds to the shape of your foot and gives you equal grip in wet or dry conditions for a sculpted, track spike-like fit. The micro-moulding texture works with Gripknit to help form to your foot for even better boot-to-ball strikes.

Fast traction
The wave-like traction pattern is a series of cascading studs, so it engages more surface area of the Air Zoom unit while also providing the appropriate amount of grip. The biggest stud is the same height as our traditional middle studs, so traction is not compromised. We paired the wave-like traction with evolved chevron and blade studs to help you stop when making quick cuts.

Snug fit
The full Flyknit upper is engineered for speed. AtomKnit, an incredibly lightweight and strong Flyknit, on the sides tapers weight and provides support. The Gripknit, AtomKnit and Flyknit combine to form the thinnest Mercurial upper to date, bringing you closer to the ball and lessening break-in time.
