Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Vapor XVI Academy x Mbappe FG/MG - Lt Laser Orange/Armory Navy
The ultimate expression of speed. Become untouchable on the pitch with Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Vapor 16 Academy x Mbappe FG/MG football boots in Lt Laser Orange/Armory Navy. When you’re as fast as Kylian, the unreal becomes reality. This signature edition blurs the lines between worlds with a hazy digital print and colour-shifting Swoosh.
Fine-tuned for responsiveness, the next-gen Merc features a cascading wave of traction at the forefoot, which engages more of the Zoom Air unit when your foot meets the ground to generate increased energy return.
It’s simple but effective: spreading out the contact area maximises the effect of Zoom Air and keeps you faster for longer. Plenty of grip too – the biggest of the wave studs is the same height as Nike’s traditional middle studs, and you’ve got the evolved chevron and blade studs 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.

Ground Type Guide
Selecting the correct sole plate for the surface you are playing on is crucial, not only for the performance and longevity of your football boots, but also to avoid the risk of injury.Using an outsole that isn't designed specifically for the surface on which you are playing may cause premature wear and/or damage that will not be deemed as a fault of manufacture and will prevent the retailer accepting them for a refund or exchange.
Firm Ground
Boots with Firm Ground soleplates are only to be used on natural, short-grass surfaces that are firm underfoot but may be slightly wet. Designed specifically for this playing surface, they offer acceleration, comfort, and enhanced traction, dispersing stud pressure evenly across the foot. FG soleplates are fixed (not removable) and are used worldwide; wetter countries tend to use them spring to autumn. FG boots are not to be used on artificial ground (AG) surfaces as the construction is not designed for the extra friction. Using FG boots on AG surfaces will invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty.
