Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 Academy ‘Kylian Mbappé’ FG/MG

Inspired by what Kylian wears on match day, this Vapor 16 Academy unlocks your blazing speed. With shout-outs to Kylian’s most iconic player-edition cleats since 2018, it helps boost your acceleration with Air Zoom cushioning and a new traction plate. Fast Traction The wave-like traction pattern works with the Air Zoom unit to help unlock your speed. It takes up more surface area of the Air Zoom unit compared to the Vapor 15 while providing the right amount of grip. It combines with chevron and blade studs to help you stop when making cuts. Amplified Touch The upper is made of NikeSkin with embedded chevrons, which helps provide ball control and truly gives you a feeling of barefoot soccer. Snug Fit We’ve upgraded the stretch mesh from the previous iteration to an adaptable knit that offers flexibility, provides support and brings you closer to the ball.
