Nike Kids Air Zoom Mercurial Vapor XVI Academy AG

Fine-tuned for responsiveness, the next-gen Merc engages the Zoom Air unit every time your foot meets the ground to generate increased energy return. It’s simple but effective, maximising the effect of Zoom Air and keeping you faster for longer. Plenty of grip too – this AG edition features hollowed-out studs of varying sizes to keep you stable on artificial surfaces, working in tandem for quick directional changes. Then there’s the lightweight, minimalist upper, which is made from a pliable NIKESKIN synthetic. Wrapping the foot for unrivalled comfort and support, it’s engineered to bring you closer to the ball than ever before. For control, there’s texturing in the Mercurial’s trademark pattern, helping you dribble with precision to evade opponents.
