[Ball Boot Review]: Nike Zoom Mercurial Vapor Elite 15 FG @hkgballboot

When talking about Nike's evergreen series, we must mention Nike Mercurial Vapor.

Upper materials
In its 15th generation, the Nike Mercurial Vapor 15 continues to use Nike's most famous knitting technology - FLYKNIT, just like the previous generations.



Shoe design
The Nike Mercurial Vapor 15's design is similar to the 13th generation, but it's thinner and has a wider inner cage than previous generations. Those with wide feet should be aware that the narrower inner cage may not be suitable for those with wide feet.



stud design
The current generation of the NIKE Mercurial Vapor 15 has changed from the previous design of using only arrow-shaped spikes to a combination of three star-shaped spikes and knife-shaped spikes. The advantage is that the lacing range is wider than the user's, and the grip is convenient for users to perform various turning movements. However, the grip is slightly reduced compared to previous generations. However, the lateral sensitivity of the current generation of the NIKE Mercurial Vapor 15 is also enhanced compared to previous generations.



Sole design
The current generation of the Nike Mercurial Vapor 15 features Air Zoom and Airbag technology, which takes up two-thirds of the left sole. The Airbag occupies approximately one-third of the left sole in both the premium and mid-priced versions, primarily at the heel. Only the off-season version will feature the full-surface Airbag technology.


AIRBAG Benefits
When the user needs to accelerate, AIRBAG will provide corresponding rebound force, just like rubbing glue.



SIZES Questions
We recommend that friends who want to buy NIKE MERCURIAL VAPOR 15 should buy the FIT TO SIZE when choosing the size. They will feel the best fit. If necessary, you may need to use shoe trees to help when the shoes are not fully opened.

Precautions
- If the shoes are not fully opened, we recommend that you use shoe trees to help you put them on when necessary.

- To wear these shoes to the most comfortable and suitable state for your feet, you need more patience. It takes some time to break in the shoes.

- In addition, if circumstances permit, you can prepare a pair of spare ball boots to wear alternately when playing football to reduce the discomfort caused by the shoes not being fully opened at the beginning.
