I could not believe my eyes! Although it was just for a split second, I'm so delighted to know that string bag ratings ARE BACK! 😆

Great to see both Adi and Nike at the pinnacle of innovation, both carbitex and air zoom is some seriously well designed and implemented tech

I think this boot really improved in cornering, mainly because of the stud pattern and the zoom unit because it springs down when stepping giving u a lower center of gravity and car people know that lower center of gravity gives better cornering and the fact that it's lighter means it could be a bit snappier. Just my thoughts though.

This boot is definitely one I will be picking up for fall season. Love the videos keep up the hard work.

It was between the Mercurial Vapor and the Legend Tiempos. I absolutely loved the additional padding/cushion for high touch points on the boot for the tiempos. However, I felt the tiempos were ever so slightly more narrow/tight. The Mercurial Vapors were SUPER comfortable, to the point where I was shocked. It doesn't have additional padding or much protection vs the Tiempos. However, the comfort factor was enough for me to go with the Mercurials.

Great review, cheers Geoff

Just hopped back on the channel and after 4 years…you have still stayed true!

Zoom v Carbitex is a much needed comparison

Ive already got mine, best looking boots I’ve ever seen

I feel like this is what the phantom GT should’ve been, a softer less aggressive Mercurial. They really veered off where they were heading w/ the mercurial with this one.

Kinda wish they had a separate upper for the Vapor and superfly but all in all a good video and an exciting generation of mercurials

Do they still have the anatomical sole plate now there’s the zoom unit? Probably one of my favourite features of the past few vapors so I’d hope they’d keep it.

You should do a take down tier list… Keep up the great work Josh!

Hey josh you should do lineage videos on cleats, I would really like to see a side by side comparison of all of the previous tiempos

I recently purchased a pair of Vapor 15 Elite and have encountered a problem. The collar is too wide and playing on synthetic is a problem since rubber pellets get in. Have any of you experienced the same problem ?

Great video Jonathan !!

That mesh upper with a speed cage below it seems to be ‘borrowed’ from the Puma Ultra 1.3/1.4 formula. Even the upper material looks a bit similar.

Most new balance looking mercurials ive seen!

Can wait to try it

I think Nike lost a chance with this vapor without making it different from the superfly, except for the sock. I thought they could reintroduce the stand alone tongue as they did with the zoom ultra prototype

Great video are these good for people with flat feet?

In other words, they have a proper answer to Adida's carbitex now that is proprietary and well-executed. Sick!

Do you think the AG version will be as revolutionary AND feel the same as the FG version?

Even though I’ll probably end up getting the elites I’m very excited to see what the pro model is like. Should they be of simmilar performance I might just go and save a couple bucks

Josh owes us another mercurial review All he’s done is gush about the zoom unit that’s allowing

A LOT of similar visual characteristics to the nb furon. First thing I think about when I see them up close.

Hi Josh, can you please review the new german brand imotana? They claim to produce custom fit boots for everybody and this sounds pretty interesting to me 🤔

They remind me of the 1990s Nike uptiempo Scotty pippen basketball shoes with the "Air " written on it lol

The ACC part playing match at the bottom of the ocean got me🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Do you think these are more responsive and feel more explosive than the adidas carbitex soleplate?

They need to go back to the upper that was used for the mercurial 13!! hugged the toe/metatarsal area so much better !

Would this be a good option for hard ground to reduce stud pressure?

Thanks Josh for another awesome review. I have a question about fit. Your buddy Jay Mike said that the toe box is a bit higher and more roomy (which I like because of my big toes). So I just wanted to know if you notice the same thing. I've worn Vapors before and they fit nicely after broken in. By the way, I've been a fan for years and glad that your channel is still growing nicely. Keep up the great work!

Will the new mercs be customizable? Also which do you prefer the superfly or vapor?

Can you start doing reviews of fútbol cleats on the pitch

Hmm...a little bit of width? Do you recommend this to wide footed players?

are they good for wide feet? old mercurials and adidas speedflow are too tight for me

Why there is such severe shortage of Pro TF mercurials (at least in Europe) ? I literally can’t find the Mercurial Vapor 14 Pro TF in my size and I guess it will be the same with the 15’s.

Vapor vs Superfly which should I buy? Thanks Josh

Hey Josh, would you pick these over the mizuno morelia neo iii beta mij?

when will the pro version be released?

Josh will you be reviewing the Nike Zoom Mercurial Vapor 15 Pro?

You should review the mercurial victory 2

we miss the playtest video with the 99 shoot power

Would u choose this mercurial vapor 15 or the mizuno morelia DNA ?

“If you need to play a match a the bottom of the ocean, you should be good to go.”😭😭🤣

Early and Clint wait to get these

When is the Take down-Version coming?

Hey Man. How would these compare to the Puma Ultra 1.4 or Ultra Ultimate.

I think it would be cool if nike made a match mercurial version of these.

from a performance standpoint which of the technologies do you think provides more benefit the zoom on these or the carbitex on the x speedflow?

How do u think the cheaper versions will compare to this one?

Can the currex cleat pro insoles work with these or will they affect the performance of zoom air unit??

Hey Josh I don't know if you have access to a decathlon store. If you do it would be really interesting if you could test a few pairs of their in house football boot brand KIPSTA. If I remember correctly you already tested Walmart as well as Sports Direct (Sondico) football boots and I enjoyed both videos. While the quality of those brands was not on par with products from the main sportwear giants, I am quite optimistic with decathlon. They tend to use latest tech in their products while offering them for half the price. I haven't tried their footballboots yet, but I have tried the top end products of their in house tennis (Artengo) as well as padel tennis (Kuikma) lines. For those sports at least in my opinion there is nothing better in terms of value for money. I also heard positive reviews about their in house bicycle brands. That's why I would love to hear your opinion about their football boots

I’m a size 10 do you recommend going half a size big on the shoe ?

Curious for what the takedown models will offer

Pre ordered early july and still waiting on them to come in.

Do you think the takedowns will have the Air Zoom technology (Club, Academy, Pro)? If they don't, the AIR decal on the side would be a bit of odd on the shoe

Will these be extremely limited hoping to get a pair i like this color way not to resell but i think the resellers will beat me

Will there be academy, pro, and elite versions available?

Maybe the tech is cool but Something about it just doesnt sit right with me. I'm usually the 1st to get the new boots as i'm a Superfly/Merc fanatic but I think i'll stick to the superfly 8.

What about any of the Asics Boots? Asics 10mm heel gradient

do they fit true to size?

Do you know if the AG Vapor 15 is like the AG Vapor 13?

Hey Josh, how would say they compare to the x speedflow?

Does anyone know when the nike vapor 15 pro come out?

Yo guys I really need ur advice should I buy speedflow.2 or predator edge.2 Pls let me know Plus I kinda got a wide feet

Zoom air should make stud pressure a thing of the past.

Hi josh, why have you went down to 1080p?

Do anyone know when the takedown models come out?

Do they feel exactly like the 14’s?

ACC..."play a match at the bottom of the ocean you should be good to go."

You know when they come out cuz in the Nike app it still says “coming soon”

Thank you for all the info. But Does it have the anatomical sole still ?

Would you recommend these or the phantom gx elite?

Has anyone received these yet? I preordered as soon as announced but they keep telling me Nike hasnt shipped to any of their sellers.

5:46 idk if this counts but all my friends Nike air max 270’s air pockets popped lmao.

Any chance you (or anyone) can speak on how much they’ll stretch after a few weeks of breaking them in? I went from the Vapor 11 (GOAT) to the 15 and they seem to be a tad bit smaller off the rip

How about ag version? Are there any news about it?

Wish these came in indoors, they always make the best workout shoes.

The phantom gts are comfortable to me. In comparison to those, how wide or narrow are these? And should I go for mercurial air?

In hand is the AIR on the side of it very much so red?

I miss the old vapors with the sexy carbon plates

Do you think these could be used on AG/are they better to use on AG than previous generations?

The Vapor’s structure is the same as the New Balance Furon But 🔥tho

I am very conflicted about the idea behind the air unit. The whole concept of „bounce back“ or energy return works wonders if you run straight lines like marathon runners; exactly because of that compression and decompression system the nike alphaflys are without a doubt the „fastest running shoes“ in the world. But the nike alphaflys are also notoriously unstable, exactly because of that energy return system. Try and run a slalom in high speed with the alphaflys and you’ll end up with sprained ankles guaranteed. Now, the air technology in the new mercurials are either just a functionless gimmick or they actually work in some noticeable way (which btw if you actually feel the air unit, then there must be compression and decompression) which will eventually lead to instability. I am sure though that if the technology actually has an effect it’s probably minimal so the instability factor too. But going forward, I think this will end up a dead end for nike or one time swoop. These shoes will have no effect on speed like the alphaflys, obviously. But I also don’t think the boots have enough compression and decompression that its actually noticeable in a way that goes beyond the „placebo“ affect (I know the term is not 100% correct in this example, but you get the point). It is very likely this is just further marketing in the shadow of dynamic obsolescence.

I was about to get the speedflows but then these cameout should I wait and get these instaed?

Which is better, this or x adidas carbon plate

Are they wider than the vapor 14 ?

why are those white ones not available on the nike website???

Should I get the vapor14 of vapor 15

Is this going to end up a mythical boot. Or are they going to roll this out to all there top boots?

Does anyone know what time (EST) they will be releasing on Nike? I know it’s this Friday but I’m not sure what time.

Finally!!

These can’t be better than the Speedflows.

Where they are manufactured ?

Will you be doing a video on the Pro model?

I got my air zoom vapor 15 a week ago and after I used them in a match i noticed that the glue that is holding the upper and the lower part together around the toes on the inside of the boots started to get loose and messed up, like the glue didnt stick well enough and it became uncomfortable to play in. I got them changed for a new pair which I used in another match and the same problem happened on my left boot but not on the right as much this time. Is this normal? Or am I just extremely unlucky to get two pairs in a row where the glue doesnt stick good enough? I need answers please. If this has happened to someone else please tell me how you fixed it.

Can you use these on AG?

Anyone have any tips for sizes? For the superflys? I'm usually a 12 but have been rocking 11.5 lately anyone have any information?
