    Have you noticed how difficult it is to get some of the most popular football boots on the market right now? Of course, some of them are limited edition releases, but even some of the regular colorways seem to be sold out instantly! Why?
    In today's video we take a closer look at the sold out Air Max Plus TN Sunset colorway of the Nike Zoom Mercurial Vapor 15 Elite. The latest limited edition drop from Nike that sold out everywhere on release day, and is already being resold for nearly double the $285 retail price! We take a closer look at the boots and discuss how sneaker resellers are currently taking over football boots, making it almost impossible to get the boots you actually want at a fair price. Would you every pay over retail for football boots?

    I hope resellers wind up eating the cost when they don't sell. Especially with something thats not supposed to be a limited edition like the predator FT and the phantom gx when it launched.

    Resellers don't know that, unlike sneakers, football boots are performance shoes. It’s not like sneakers that you wear and shine your fashion style, football boots only shine when have good skills. Goodluck reseller ✌️

    There’s not really much profit to be made on these. I had a chance to buy it and it took days to sell out on the Nike site. The retail was $375 cad plus tax it was almost $430. People selling on stock x for just under $500 after stock x takes their cut or in the case of eBay after paying for shipping there’s not much profit to be made on these. Also they were limited to one per person meaning you’d have to get multiple addresses to buy more and make other accounts.

    I get the selling out and keeping interest argument, but aren't these companies losing more money by mass manufacturing crappy takedown models that nobody wants, instead of making more boots that people are actually willing to pay for? Not to mention the profit margins on elite models is much higher than said takedown models.

    It's not just football boots. It's anything. Whatever is made in limited quantities is instantly bought out by resellers and then sold online for significantly more. Items like this usually go on sale when people are at work as well, so those who want to buy them to actually use them, lose out.

    Sadly the answer is yes: resellers have taken over the football boot market. If people did just not buy at their rificulous prices, they would go away 😮‍💨
    Real people do not get a chance to wear the boots they want to wear, and these stupid resellers just sit on the pair until some dummy buys fot 200usd over retail 🤦🏻‍♂️

      @@cold42takedowns can be a gamble. Sometimes they work well (futures), other times not (predator).
      Typically, i buy prior version of a boot on sale, like I had got copa sense .1 for $117 & just picked up 2pr of predator accuracy .2 in diff colorways for $59 & $65.
      All that said, I’ve found in getting older that my feet cant accommodate as wide a variety of boots as before. Certain styles, especially if limited on heel padding, aren’t worth the agony.
      In such instances, paying more for comfort is worth it. Also, if you’re not playing competitively most of the week, boots can last awhile. I get bored of the boots before they fail most times.
