All I can say is, Unisport has continued to do an amazing job with how they present and review football boots over the years. I don’t even kick ball anymore & somehow I’m here enjoying this video. Massive respect 👊🏾
If its not broke, don't fix it. Nike if you would just copy and paste a retro boot to the exact same specifications and perhaps change the material if needed then you would have better products !
I think they are the improved version of those aspects that the Vapor was often criticized for: too narrow and not having the right shape for the foot, things that were fought for. The good news is Nike listened to the users and made it wearable
TYSM UNISPORT ME AND MY FAMILY HAVE EVERYTHING ON UNISPORT RELATED TO FOOTBALL/SOCCER, WE EVERYTHING LIKE BOOTS FOOTBALLS AND GEAR AND WE GET EVERYTHING THAT IS NEW AND CAME OUT OR HASNT BEEN RELEASED
@@robertolupera8003 the ogs caused blisters because they were not shaped into a wearable mold and had concrete heels with blister pads. Jay has narrow feet based on his reviews of boots i have experience with. These will probably fit most people ok, except for extremely slim or wide feet
Jonathan, you're not wrong in saying that I do have narrow feet - and heels - but still, even with that taken into account these are exceptionally wide. They'll definitely be less annoyingly wide if you have a more voluminous heel area, but still. I still think they could've mimicked that old heel shape a lot better and still made it more comfortable - after all, today's way of making heels with the internal counters and the foam and liners they use is much better. It feels like something that's easy-ish to fix, and that's a shame to me. /Jay
From photos of the boot the boot didn’t seem overly shiny which is kinda :/ Also reimagine the boot and make the boot POP more. There plenty of materials to have the boot popping more
OG silver mercurial had premium shiny mirror material, this looks like the cheaper 2003 Nike Talaria skin with 2024 Premium pricing :) love the nostalgia tho
Got them today, and the lockdown feels just fine and pretty similar to other vapors - i have the F50 and i feel less lockdown in the heel area, these fitted lick a glove.
@ when you have a wide midfoot, it always makes the opening/heel of the shoe flare out because there isn’t enough space or material. This will fix that problem
Would’ve bought if the heel wasn’t as wide. I may need to try them on but I love mercurials that are tight and sharp. I still wear my vapor 13s from 2020.
The heel fit actually looks similar, to the David Beckham Predator 24 that was released days ago. That Predator compared to regular Pred 24s also has more room in general at the back half of the boots.
Absolutely copping, no questions, Jay Mike could basically have told me they were terrible and I still would have bought them. Pretty disappointed with that heel fit though 😕
I was dying to get the true og sprinter spike from my original vapor IIs, dunno if I'll buy this seeing how round the opening is. I loved the feeling of almost tip toeing my way around the pitch.
Was incredibly excited to pickup a pair this December as I have great memories in the vapor 1s but after seeing how wide that heel I'm gonna have to pass :/ Doubtful they'll change the shape for the future colorways but here's hoping
I own a pair of the mist blue mercurial Vapor’s from 2002 & the orange and bronze from 2006 they are aerodynamic and narrow ballerina feel for sure super snug love my ogs they fit Like gloves 🧤 these new ones are WAY too WIDE
So basically this is Nike’s version of the adidas Predator LZ1 Remake. Something we all want & the tech is there, but something just didn’t adjust well to modern tech. Great review man, but I’m gonna have to pass on these
It’s nuts that people still clamor for these old school boots like manias and vapors. It just goes to show you how good those boots were in comparison to whats readily available today. In my opinion it’s all junk now.
The vapor iv SL in the color shift & baby blue color way is probably still my favorite boot of all time. Brings me back to my junior and senior year of highschool.
I don’t know if anyone could answer my question but what happened to Joltter being on the channel? It’s been years since I’ve watched a video from these guys
This boot is a pass. Seems chunky compared to the OG. The slim look and feel of the original Vapor 1 was the reason the boot was so popular. The remake misses on that look an feel.
Collectors (like you, Jay Mike) and people who has a lot of money are the most happy about this launch. On the other hand, we, the regular people who really buys football boots from those brands (adidas, nike) are disappointed. Why? Because the big brands are always making limited edition releases.
That heel is silly, just silly… Give us a remake with the teijin microfiber (maybe with acc for a bit more grip?), modern heel padding that locks the achilles, and like a 5-10% increase right at the front of the swoosh in the forefoot rather than the stupid, stupid heel increase. That would slap
Adidas do the best Remake OG upper on new soleplate system's. The Adidas Adizero F50 Ghosted OG upper Carbitex soleplate system is the Synthetic Boot's my Son uses with a Copa ortholite insole under the F50 insole an loves um when not using K-Leather 😂
All I can say is, Unisport has continued to do an amazing job with how they present and review football boots over the years. I don’t even kick ball anymore & somehow I’m here enjoying this video.
Massive respect 👊🏾
Agree, heel shape and the tooling for me makes it look less premium than it should be
It feels like the boot would come right off
Only Nike could bring back a boot, improve it in some ways, and destroy it in others. Nike gonna Nike.
If its not broke, don't fix it. Nike if you would just copy and paste a retro boot to the exact same specifications and perhaps change the material if needed then you would have better products !
Un remake des chaussures des années 2000's. Une nouvelle preuve que les 2000's étaient vraiment spéciales. Merci à vous Nike 👍🏾
Honestly as a guy with wide feet, these boots having that wider fit is perfect as I can actually wear my size
I think they are the improved version of those aspects that the Vapor was often criticized for: too narrow and not having the right shape for the foot, things that were fought for. The good news is Nike listened to the users and made it wearable
Thank God it was not a direct remake 😅 they are probably wearable now. OG Vapors were blister machines, first 3 were unwearable
but how when R9 played if it's true )
@@christiantroy90210probably had custom made versions
nah you just had to be that dude to wear em. most people werent
@@weaponX14 because you could not wear them 😅
@@christiantroy90210 his had to be very custom, the retail pairs were beyond bad
I hope they don’t mess up the upcoming Total 90
Wait another remake?
@@Etoo-q71z a total 90 trainer remake has already been leaked with the possibility of the boots to follow

Hard to believe that's a mercurial. I've never seen a boot that wide at the heel. It's wider than normal trainers
The shape of the shoe is so weird looking tbh… but maybe is that wide because of the blisters the OG used to cause?
@@robertolupera8003 the ogs caused blisters because they were not shaped into a wearable mold and had concrete heels with blister pads. Jay has narrow feet based on his reviews of boots i have experience with. These will probably fit most people ok, except for extremely slim or wide feet

@@unisport seems weird to have such a wide heel area but such a pointed toe box. Not many foot shapes like that
@@unisport ahhh, i see, that is strange then. Maybe they intended it more for collectors
From photos of the boot the boot didn’t seem overly shiny which is kinda :/
Also reimagine the boot and make the boot POP more. There plenty of materials to have the boot popping more
This boot was a blister king
OG silver mercurial had premium shiny mirror material, this looks like the cheaper 2003 Nike Talaria skin with 2024 Premium pricing :)
love the nostalgia tho
You guys are the goat of TH-cam
Got them today, and the lockdown feels just fine and pretty similar to other vapors - i have the F50 and i feel less lockdown in the heel area, these fitted lick a glove.
the mercurial back in the day they were always hurting ur heel but it was still fucking fire! chrome n gold best colorways ever
As someone with wide feet, I absolutely love this.
wide heel area not wide toe box or mid foot
@ when you have a wide midfoot, it always makes the opening/heel of the shoe flare out because there isn’t enough space or material. This will fix that problem
If the Vapor 3, 4 and 5 come back I would be so happy!
If only they could bring back Euros 2008 Pine Green!! That color has never been around since back then
God forbid Nike actually makes a remake😂miss me with that nonsense
Good thing I can't afford boots nowadays, so I won't in temptation
Would’ve bought if the heel wasn’t as wide. I may need to try them on but I love mercurials that are tight and sharp. I still wear my vapor 13s from 2020.
They should’ve remade it he grey/blue/yellow R9 mercurial since KNG100 is probably the easiest to recreate using flytouch
I’d love to see the white and gold remake. Ya know the one that had the gold and blue studs
It's doesn't have the chrome polish finish like the OG 😭😭😭😭
Looks like the shoes mom gets u if she didn't ask what u prefer💯💀
@@oggeorgy5519 I think Moms always get what you don't want on purpose just to say _"Why didn't you tell me?"_
The heel fit actually looks similar, to the David Beckham Predator 24 that was released days ago. That Predator compared to regular Pred 24s also has more room in general at the back half of the boots.
How does Nike screw up the first vapor this badly. It's unforgivable
Absolutely copping, no questions, Jay Mike could basically have told me they were terrible and I still would have bought them.
Pretty disappointed with that heel fit though 😕
Just have to add the seventh lace hole with a leather hole puncher 😅
@javierperez-s9khe did mention the lace holes
Good job little consumer
@@ThatJohnGuy30 🤦♂️🎣
@@BootWizard Nike says jump, you jump 😂😂😂😭
8:47 I agree. Would've preferred the Pro outsold. 1 to 1 feel with the ground.
The shape does look a lot wider, but it's probably going to be really accommodating so I can't hate on that
I don't care about heel
i dreamed about this boots 20 years because R9
i hope i can to buy but i don't know how crucial this heels on your playstyle
they look nice
1000 likes and free boots??
Good luck 🙏
i liked rhid cmmt
Get your bread up bum
goodluck 😅
I was dying to get the true og sprinter spike from my original vapor IIs, dunno if I'll buy this seeing how round the opening is. I loved the feeling of almost tip toeing my way around the pitch.
As someone who like the Fit of the Phantoms a lot do you think that i'll have a problem with this ,,Heel-fit''?
They sold out on Nike in minutes. No chance copping them. Ready for the adidas predator where is more affordable 😊
the heel looks like entry level boots but other than that it looks really nice.
i love this boot bro
We need an updated 2024 turf/AG boot list
Was incredibly excited to pickup a pair this December as I have great memories in the vapor 1s but after seeing how wide that heel I'm gonna have to pass :/ Doubtful they'll change the shape for the future colorways but here's hoping
Merc for wide feet..and those slim kids are crying😂
More like wide heels and ankles. Good luck to wide feet in that toe box
I own a pair of the mist blue mercurial Vapor’s from 2002 & the orange and bronze from 2006 they are aerodynamic and narrow ballerina feel for sure super snug love my ogs they fit Like gloves 🧤 these new ones are WAY too WIDE
So basically this is Nike’s version of the adidas Predator LZ1 Remake. Something we all want & the tech is there, but something just didn’t adjust well to modern tech.
Great review man, but I’m gonna have to pass on these
@unisport will this or other versions of this reimagined Vapor 1 will come with AG outsole? Really want to use them on artifical pitches!
wanting this model comes to brazil in turf edition for I make the unboxing and first impression analisys
It’s nuts that people still clamor for these old school boots like manias and vapors. It just goes to show you how good those boots were in comparison to whats readily available today. In my opinion it’s all junk now.
Nike need to just put Air-Zoom back in everything 💯🙏
The heel makes the boot look like slides that could come off any moment
Have the feeling they made the vapor that wide just to accommodate to every foot shape which makes me not want to buy them
The best of the best
Totally agree
Review the Kobe 6 American football shoes and try playing football in them
Will there be a TF version as well ?
What time will the boots release?!?
Really need this pair
Wide footed players like myelf about to buy every pair.
Are they gonna make also turf models?
The wide heel makes it look like the vapor 1 that was selling in 2002.
would you recommend them over the vapor 16?
Wonder if they could do Kangalite version of the AZ T90 2
Looks like a mercurial Talaria not the OGs
they need to re release the vapor IV's
Worst vapor ever, heavy
The vapor iv SL in the color shift & baby blue color way is probably still my favorite boot of all time. Brings me back to my junior and senior year of highschool.
Are there any DIY fixes for the back of the boot, if it ends up being too wide for my foot?
When do these come out ? & where can I buy
I don’t know if anyone could answer my question but what happened to Joltter being on the channel? It’s been years since I’ve watched a video from these guys
I wish I could find a pair of mercurial Vapor ii K leather 😭
Are they coming out on your website
How does toe box area fit compared to Tiempo Legend 10?
This boot could have been the Vapors today. An the superfly 10 would have been the superflys, then the boots wouldn’t be the same anymore
Should I order a size up for the vapor 1’s? I have the vapor 16’s now.
Puede ser donde Ronaldo en esa época usaba espinilleras con tobillera, por eso es más ancho en la parte del tobillo, una humilde opinión!
Finally! 🙌🏽
Nike site says to get a size bigger for looser fit.. so maybe you needed to get a size smaller for snug
@unisport would you say the length (in the toe) is similar to the tiempo? Considering it’s that same skin
Will it be that maybe its mold by Vini?
Looks like a nike 3 Taleria
The original chrome boots had a shine about them
I am a wide foot is this a good pick for new cleats?
Are these made in Italy like the original OG?
Just molds or studs as well?
Hi can you tell me what Nike grip socks u have?
Ngl would rather buy the Vapor 16 academy model
So if you were to rate it out of ten what would it be?
is there going to be a pro version?
What are they made of, leather?
How many pairs will be?
This boot is a pass. Seems chunky compared to the OG. The slim look and feel of the original Vapor 1 was the reason the boot was so popular. The remake misses on that look an feel.
So, with the ankle, should I or do I get it a size less?
Will f50 pro fits to wide footed players
Can u make a vid on nike tiempo legend 10 academy and pro
What if Nike bring back the galaxy shoes
How much do they weight?
Are these good for wide feet?
Collectors (like you, Jay Mike) and people who has a lot of money are the most happy about this launch.
On the other hand, we, the regular people who really buys football boots from those brands (adidas, nike) are disappointed. Why? Because the big brands are always making limited edition releases.
When does it come out
If there’s more space in the heel should I drop down 1/2 a size?
Where can i get a pair ?
tight toe box, wide no lockdown heal = pass
Nothing beats the kangaroo leather chrome polish and narrow fit. Vapor was meant for speed for a reason
Kangaroo leather was used only for one model, i think those were black with red, not chrome
These r perfect for my grandpa who has gout in both ankles
That heel is silly, just silly…
Give us a remake with the teijin microfiber (maybe with acc for a bit more grip?), modern heel padding that locks the achilles, and like a 5-10% increase right at the front of the swoosh in the forefoot rather than the stupid, stupid heel increase. That would slap
They’ve made them look like the talaria version
Adidas do the best Remake OG upper on new soleplate system's. The Adidas Adizero F50 Ghosted OG upper Carbitex soleplate system is the Synthetic Boot's my Son uses with a Copa ortholite insole under the F50 insole an loves um when not using K-Leather 😂
