Nike Thread [19] - Post all info, pics & questions here!

Defo blue IMO

 

Are there any differences in fit and comfort of the faux leather and dimpled upper of the vapor 9?

 

Look what happend to my bomba's after just a few training sessions

 

I don't understand what the problem is?

 

I know what you mean, but for a boot that's specially made for artofficial grass and that's just been used 4/5 times you wouldn't expect that there would be any damage to a boot like this...and ofcourse i'm not going to return them (unless it gets worse)

 

Hello, I asked this question a while ago, but the thread got closed as I should have put the question in here.
Well here goes again....

Hi, I own a pair of these Superflys in Max Orange/Abyss (see first link below). The product code is 354553-851 and they are made in China. They are great boots.

So I bought a new pair in Black/Yellow (see 2nd link below).

My problem is. They are slightly different so I'm wondering if they are real or fake.
They don't have the same tongue or insoles. The size tag is on the side of the boot, not the back of the tongue and they are Made in Italy, not China.
They have the same outer markings and lines as the orange boots but are a lot lighter and more feint.
There are no padded pouches inside to protect the heel like on the orange version.
There is no product code in the usual Nike format of 6 numbers followed by 3 numbers (eg. 888888-888). There is some numbers but they are all together 100541447. There is also a upc code 00883212022684.

I'm wondering if the ones made in Italy are made to a different spec. Were there Mercurials made in Italy at all??!!
Or maybe it's an earlier/later model?
Help would be appreciated.

 

does somebody know where i can find that picture of some soccer player his hypervenoms that where completly torn apart? i can't seem to remember where i saw that picture

 

Just reading that about the SF1, I can't find any pictures of mine

 

How do I take studs off old Nike Mercurial Vapor like these? I know there must be a stud tool, but I don't have 1

 

Use a screwdriver or a knife.

 

They just pop off do they? I don't want to damage them

 

Damn i got tackled bad today from a guy that had some long ass soft ground studs and my hypervenoms got some serious damage... You think i can return them to the store where i bought them?

 

Really want a pair of Vapor IXs, but I always hear people rave about earlier models. I barely know anything about the Mercurial line past the VIIIs, so what are some of you guys' favourite previous Mercurial?

 

I've had a look on ebay but nothing there. I'll try my luck with a flathead. Thanks

 

You are supposed to play with your boots, so yeah it shouldn't be a problem.

I have no experience with anything before Vapors but if you have narrow feet or just like snug barefoot feel, the Vapor I and II will be perfect for you. If you have wide feet and still want Vapors you should take a look at Vapor IV and V.

 

Viii and ix fit differently in terms of width with ix's being tighter round the sides. I also found viii's quite loose around the heel. You really have to try the at a shop to see how they feel to you. Im yet to try ix on pitch cos i bought sg pros and the ground is rock hard at the moment

 

am seriously thinking of leaving team mercurial...the boots (for the wide footed amongst us) are quite tight on the side of your feet meaning that sizing up at least .5 may be necessary. Problem is soccer scene dont do 11.5 and nike town charge an extra 40 quid. Hypervenom here i come

 

one of my mate have a same problem too, and the texture even scratch
