#1. Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 & Superfly 10
Since the debut of the ‘Vapor 1’, the first Nike Mercurial Vapor in 2002, and the introduction of the Mercurial ‘Superfly I’ in 2009, Nike’s Mercurial line has been a dominant force on football pitches.
Worn by some of the greatest football legends, including Cristiano Ronaldo, Kylian Mbappe, Neymar, Didier Drogba, and Thierry Henry, it’s safe to say that this silo isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
Now returning like a specter in a night, the Vapor mark its 16th iteration, the Superfly its 10th cloaked in Black with pops of ‘Deep Jungle’ green and hues of light turqoise to evoke a moonlight glow, the Vapor & Superfly boots are back and better than ever.
But beyond a renewed colourway, both the Superfly & Vapor models boast something altogether more exciting – the status as the lightest Mercurial football boots ever made!
Marking a milestone in technological innovation, both the Superfly 10 and Vapor 16 from the Shadow Pack utilise the lightest and thinnest Flyknit upper. This results in a significant reduction in the boot’s thickness.
The five-layer structure has been replaced with a three-layer one, presenting a signficant 30% reduction in Flyknit thickness. Consequently, players are brought closer to the ball as the material helps enact a second-skin that is not only form-fitting, but aerodynamic.
Further tweaks to the Superfly & Vapor’s design include a snappier and more responsive soleplate than the previous iterations.
This presents an impressive 10% increase in energy return, thanks to the inclusion of flex grooves strategically placed on the Air Zoom stroble unit, aswell as added speed fins to the forefront of the boot for enhanced propulsion and plate flexibility that enacts a natural extension of the foot.
#2. Nike Phantom Luna / GX II
Football aficionados, get ready for a visual spectacle!
The Nike Phantom Luna / GX II football boots, in true ‘Shadow Pack’ style, are bathed in a mesmerizing mix of deep jungle green and bold blacks. The result? A finish that’s subtle yet packs a powerful punch!
Staying true to its roots, these boots come loaded with the same top-notch tech seen on the previous Phantom Luna / GX II from the Mad Brilliance Pack. Because let’s face it, when you’ve hit the bullseye, why change the game?
Designed for the maestros who command the pitch with razor-sharp passes and deadly shot accuracy, the Phantom Luna (High Cut) and GX II (Low Cut) are your secret weapon.
They’re armed with innovative features from its Nike Gripknit & Flyknit construction, boasting a unique thumbprint texture that harks back to the iconic Total 90 Laser II.
But the real star of the show? The Nike Cyclone 360 soleplate. The Phantom range continues to redefine excellence, flaunting one of the most revolutionary soleplates Nike has ever introduced (in our opinion anyway!).
And it’s not just about performance – we’re absolutely smitten with the pops of turquoise that evoke a moonlit glow. This is a boot that promises to turn heads with every touch, pass, and strike of the ball.
So, whether you’re a seasoned pro making magic on the pitch, or an aspiring star ready to make your mark, these boots are your ticket to glory.
Get ready to dazzle the crowd and leave a lasting impression with these beauties!
#3. Nike Tiempo X
Last, but by no means least, Nike rounds off their Shadow Pack with a fresh “deep jungle” spin on the classic Tiempo lineage. This marks a thrilling revival of the Shadow Pack Tiempo, and it’s a sight to behold!
Just take a moment to admire the embossed detailing and grooves on the Flytouch Plus upper.
See how they catch the light, adding a dash of sparkle to every stride. And the subtle “Jungle Green” accents? They delicately embellish the Swoosh’s border and studs, adding a touch of elegance to this showstopper.
So, gear up to steal the show with the revamped Shadow Pack Tiempo.
