I thought you guys would have seen these colors, I have pictures of a few of the new 90 series shoes if you want them I am getting them from Niketalk where a guy with the screename on the pictures gets a lot of good info on soccer stuff.

 

man those black/gold vapors are brutal!!
how can u get this niketalk?

 

here's little info about the vapor 3's:
UPPER: Anatomically contoured speed last mirrors the foot; revolutionary new Teijin synthetic upper engineered to conform and adjust to the foot's shape; form-fitting exposed heel cup cradles the heel and secures a high-performance fit; carbon heel wrap stabilizes and distributes impact during heel strike
MIDSOLE: Carbon composite internal chassis transfers energy directly to the cleats
OUTSOLE: Two-piece plate with direct inject studs and optimal orientation for multidirectional traction and instant acceleration
PROFILE: The ultimate speed product for the top-levels of play. For use on firm, natural surfaces.

you can pre-buy the white/gold ones on soccercorner.com

 

could you put pics of the new 90's

 

its just niketalk.com and anyone can look at it (I'm not signed up to it). They get really good info on nike shoes (mostly basketball, running, or retro shoes like air force ones and stuff.) that will be releasing way before they come out but soccer only has about two threads in the whole place. I'll start a new thread with the 90s cuz this is the vapor thread.

 

goal look for the Nike 2006 Fall Catalog (Zoom 90 Supreme) thread.
there are some good pictures of the new azt 90 4's.

 

How's the durability of the Vapor II's? I'm thinking of purchasing them, since they won't be as ridiculously expensive as before, but only if they're going to be durable. They're not my favorite shoes (which are the Copa Mundial and the Pred Mania, in black thank you very much), but I'd like to have them as a training boot, because they look easy to clean and rather durable.

 

JESUS CHRIST!!!!!!!! VAPOR 3's are in bruneiiii!!! whoaaaa...they're only samples but still...check these bad boys out! hahaah now i have to get $190 somehow. they've only got 12 pairs though, and in uk9, my size!

 

OMG so early? are you going to get some? they look nice

 

hahaha i'm strapped for cash atm =(. i'm gonna try sell my gcse and a/s textbooks lol. they're in mint condition cause i hardly touched them heeheehee. but yeah i'm gonna get that money one way or another =P hahaha any means possible.

 

And they are Talarias............

 

The durability of the vapor is brilliant. Mine held up for ages, one of my favourite boots along with the mania, but I've never tried copa's. Just wondering if you are a size 8UK, I'm selling a few pairs of black mania's on ebay. Brand new. I just thought it might be useful, I don't want any trouble coz it wasn't in the selling thread.

PS, I now think the vapor III will be my next boot.

 

arent those talarias?

 

agreed...they are talarias...with that external heel counter

 

ahhh NOOOOOO they ARE talarias...hahaha guess i got a bit too excited lol, just gotta keep waiting then. dammit =P i feel like...words cannot express what i feel like right now. *jumps over a cliff* hahaha

 

...is that like jumping OFF a cliff? Coz jumping over a cliff sounds more like fun to me!

 

hahaha yeah i think i meant to say off a cliff. my bad, i was still so bummed out to realize they were talarias and not vapors. lol.

 

i hope you guys know that the vapor 3's are soposed to be heavier than the vapor 2

at least thats what i have heard

they look sick tought. are if you are going top get any thing ypu shold get the beck absolute b/c they are supose to be like 7 oz.

 

Well the Talarias certainly are heavier.

I prefer the look of Vapor II's and they are comfy on me, sooo, what is the benefit of the MVIII?
