Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite

Obsessed with speed? So are the game's biggest stars. That's why we made these Elite cleats 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.

Sticky 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. It molds to the shape of your foot and gives you equal grip in wet or dry conditions for an extremely sculpted, track spike-like fit. Micromolding texture works with Gripknit to help form to your foot for even better cleat-to-ball strikes.
Snug Fit
The full Flyknit upper is engineered for speed. In the quarter panels, there is an incredibly lightweight and strong Flyknit (also known as Atomknit) that tapers weight and provides support. And through the u-throat we offer the adaptable Flyknit that our players love and trust. The Gripknit, Atomknit and Flyknit combine to form the thinnest Mercurial upper to date, brings you closer to the ball and lessens break-in time.
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 in the series is the same height as our traditional middle studs so traction is not compromised. We’ve paired the wave traction with evolved chevron and blade studs in quick acceleration stops.
