Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Vapor XVI Elite x Mbappe FG

Give opponents nightmares with Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite x Mbappe FG football boots in Melon Tint/Neo Turq/Igloo. In an instant, Kylian Mbappe becomes unplayable. Inspired by his terrifying acceleration and agility, this signature edition features hazy graphics and colour-shifting details, transforming the look of the boots for every gamechanging moment.

Fine-tuned for responsiveness, the next-gen Merc features a cascading wave of traction at the forefoot, which engages more of the Zoom Air unit when your foot meets the ground to generate increased energy return. It’s simple but effective: spreading out the contact area maximises the effect of Zoom Air and keeps you faster for longer. Plenty of grip too – the biggest of the wave studs is the same height as Nike’s traditional middle studs, and you’ve got the evolved chevron and blade studs working in tandem for quick directional changes. Then there’s the lightweight, minimalist upper, which combines multiple knit technologies in a design that brings you closer to the ball than ever before. It’s the thinnest Merc upper to date, made up of just three layers. Flyknit provides the comfort, Atomknit the support, and Gripknit – that’s right, the Merc has Gripknit now – the control. If you’re not familiar with Gripknit, it’s a sticky, pliable, weather-resistant yarn that enhances boot-to-ball connection and ensures your touch stays consistent in any situation. When you’re dribbling at high speed, it helps you manipulate the ball with superior accuracy to evade opponents – ideal for Mercurial players.
