Nike Mercurial Vapor IX Football Boots - Fireberry/Green/Red/White
Nike football are continuing to revolutionize the landscape, with the launch of their new Mercurial Vapor IX boot. Emphasizing high technique and explosive speed to beat your opponent, the Vapor IX is the latest in the Mercurial line to deliver lightweight performance.
Combining performance innovation and a heritage of lightweight boots for fast players, the Nike Mercurial Vapor IX takes this legacy to the next level for players who rely on tight cuts and turns combined with bursts of explosive speed to beat the opposition. 
No boot delivers explosive speed and style quite like the Nike Mercurial Vapor. They're football's longest serving speed boot, built for high-powered acceleration and delivered in dynamic, bold fashion. Now nine generations strong, the Vapor is back to stake its claim as football's most electrifying boot. 
The Mercurial Vapor IX is engineered with a completely new upper to deliver a level of support and touch for players to deliver a deadly combination of speed and skill when it matters most. Nike s new Speed Control texture on the upper gives players the confidence to perform at speed with enhanced friction that combines with a snug and responsive fit -- a hallmark of Mercurial boots. 
The Speed Control texture wraps around the foot, giving the boot friction when necessary without compromising on the soft touch the player requires. The upper also locks down the foot and prevents unnecessary movement within the boot, while a minimal and soft heel area maximizes comfort and therefore the performance of those wearing them. 
Traction is everything for the player who relies on explosive speed. Twin studs at the back allow for a quick release from the turf, and the asymmetric design of the stud configuration delivers an explosive start. Highly responsive blades also allow for game-altering changes in direction at speed. 
The Mercurial Vapor IX features the same unique, lightweight plate as the Vapor VIII, incorporating two different pieces of glass fiber that increase flexibility and responsiveness, providing energy return in the heat of the game. 
The Fireberry/Green/Red/White Nike Vapor IX could be the boldest launch we've seen from the Mercurial range, and we expect to see take-over pitches around the globe in the coming weeks. They are available to pre-order from January 18th at select retailers, priced at around £160.00 GBP / €220.00 EURO / $240.00 USD.
