Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite SE "Black" FQ8682-001

Nike continues to advance football footwear with the Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite SE “Black,” designed for players who prioritise speed. Featuring an upgraded 3/4-length Air Zoom unit, it provides the propulsion needed to surge past defenders. This iteration of the Mercurial is the most responsive to date, giving players the precision and control necessary to excel on the pitch.

This edition also pays tribute to the impact of women’s football, incorporating design elements inspired by key moments in the women’s game. For the first time, Nike has applied a Chrome finish to both the plate and upper, recognising the contributions of women athletes to the sport and celebrating their role in the boot’s high-speed legacy.

Performance-wise, the boot delivers excellent control and traction. Nike’s Gripknit material enhances ball control, moulding to your foot for consistency in both wet and dry conditions. The wave-like traction pattern, paired with chevron and blade studs, provides solid grip for quick turns and sharp stops. The lightweight AtomKnit Flyknit upper reduces weight while ensuring a snug, supportive fit, making the Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite SE “Black” ideal for fast play on slightly wet, short-grass pitches.
