    I saw a picture of him, and his boots looked white (i thought it was chrome at first). Is this the new K-leather vapor? If someone could post some links with good pictures i would greatly appreciate it.

    They're actually the Mercurial Chrome by nike. I have a pair of the lower priced one [$80] and they're easily the lightest boot in the entire world. They're made of one piece material that's very thin, I can't think of the name offhand.

    Sometimes they don't offer the best support when someone comes crashing into you feet first, but man do you get some looks and it's also amazing to be running and not realize you're wearing any clunky, heavy [they only weigh 7.1 ounces] boots.

    You can find them here

    i thought they were chrome at first too, but they aren't. look at them carefully, they are white with a black swoosh on the laterial side only. the picture that i have isn't that big, but you can cleary see that it isn't chrome. one of his teammates are wearing the chrome sg.

    the boot that you have is the talaria. i have a pair of the new black vapor so i know how they feel and fit, but i heard they were coming out with the k-leather vapor in the fall so i was wondering if henry was wearing them.

    Well it wouldn't suprise me if Nike made him special boots just for him, that's what the Chrome's were for Ronaldo. Course they could also be what you said, though I'm not sure they could get the K-leather to be such a perfect 1 piece fit, I've never seen a K-leather boot that didn't have a lot of seams on it.
