Nike Men's Zoom Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite FG

Engineered for elite performance, the Nike Men's Zoom Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite FG firm ground (fg) soccer cleats arrive in Volt/Black. Designed for the fastest players on the pitch, this elite level Mercurial delivers explosive speed, responsive energy return, and confident control in every stride.

At the core of the cleat is an improved 3/4-length Air Zoom unit, engineered to provide a propulsive sensation that helps you accelerate quickly and break past defenders. This responsive system enhances energy return, making it one of the most dynamic Mercurials to date.

The wave-like traction pattern works in sync with the Air Zoom unit to maximize speed and grip. Combined with chevron and blade studs, it provides traction for rapid acceleration, sharp cuts, and controlled stops on firm ground surfaces.

The upper features Nike Gripknit, a sticky, adaptive material that enhances ball control in both wet and dry conditions. Paired with a Flyknit construction, it creates the thinnest Mercurial upper yet, delivering a close-to-the-ball feel and reducing break-in time.

A snug, sock-like fit wraps your foot for a secure, locked-in sensation, allowing you to move freely at top speed with confidence.

As the highest performance tier, Elite is built for players who demand acceleration, responsiveness, and precision in every moment of the game.
