The Nike Mercurial Vapour VIII

The Nike Mercurial Vapor VIII was made for the 2012 European Championships with some of the biggest names in Soccer using them including Christiano Ronaldo and Mesut Ozil.

Straight out of the box , these miracle shoes where ready to be used, no fitting them on in the shower or sauna, they mimic your feet in no time. I took them out and fitted them in just one training and used them in a game the next day, the cleats were a perfect fit from the beginning staying properly on and they didn't rub any blisters.

The flexible, soft and thin suede Teijen Microfiber and with only 6.5oz of weight makes wearing the Mercurial Vapour VIII seem like your wearing socks, not cleats. They bend with your foot as you run but also protect your foot as you take a shot with them. The light weight and flexibility promise speed and agility but the cleat lacks on proper support.
