*Update! The Mercurial Vapor VI is available to order now!*
While most of the football world’s attention will be on the re-emergence of the Mercurial Vapor Superfly, it shouldn’t be forgotten that also revealed today is the latest version of the Nike Mercurial Vapor V.
On pre-order like the Superfly, it comes in the Black / Voltage Yellow colourway which certainly struck a chord with Footy Boots fans when we first released details of the boot a few weeks before its initial launch. Indeed, this was the colourway that seemed to score best with those of you who contacted us.
The Mercurial Vapor V is built around Nike Flywire – a revolutionary construction method that uses super-light filaments to help make the Vapor V strong and light.
Weighing in at just 230 grams, the Vapor V features an ultra-light Teijin synthetic upper that adjusts to the shape of your foot for total comfort. And its carbon composite outer works with direct-injected studs to race-tune your acceleration.
The stud at the toe end of the Vapor V is designed to give grip whilst twisting and turning at high speed and the entire stud configuration should help your traction and penetration with the playing surface.

Fave colourway of the lot. Nice.
Yep – a very decent effort. Think the Superfly has the edge on looks but at Ă‚£100 more expensive, looks aren’t everything.
i love that color, well in the photos look fantasic !
i thin is te inverted color of the citron
it looks like a batman themed colorway
not saying thats bad, but the more i think about it i think they might remind you of batman more when you see them in person.
are the steam Vs any good?
they look good but will cook your feet
black boots are like an oven
Very nice shoe! But NikeĂ‚´s allways too small for my kids. Only avalible up to size 12 in our stores in Sweden(stadium)?!
what is the difference in mercurial vapour and superfly except the price 🙂
