Watching this in 12/28 and I think people can agree that these are the best mercurials ever, nothing else can reach that level of performance. It’s impressive how good these are. Responsive, comfortable, light, aggressive. They have everything.
I have tried the mecurial vapor 13s a lot and used the phantoms but for both the side of my foot (the inside of the boot) sinks into the side of the boot. Its really uncomfortable only there. Do you think it will be better to go for an Adidas speedflow .1? My feet are quite narrow
@@petercraig4just saw this! It’s been a minute haha. Well, it’s all about personal preference, I have tried them all since the 4th generation and with already 2 generations already settled, I have to say that the 13s are still the best boot I’ve ever worn.
@@marco7838that’s a tough one brother. The mercs are narrow but not they used to, but narrower than the phantoms for sure. I’d say you could gather as much information as possible about your feet (measuring it) and then try to find the best cleat for you, these reviews have helped me a lot to buy boots online without going to a physical store.
Great video. After 20 years of wearing K-leather (Adidas Copa and Nike Tiempo), finally tried the Mercurial Vapor 13 elite. The fit is spot on. My first impression was wow these cleats are so light. Felt like i could accelerate and run faster with them. Definitely one of the best soccer boots I have ever worn.
Just received mine today and these really are a step up from the previous Vapor’s. feel much better on feet and snug aswell compared to the previous MV 12’s. Really worth it if anyone is looking to buy them
I’m not sure where you live but if your in Canada there is a Nike clearance store it’s a huge store with only clearance last season I got vaper 12 elites for only 60 dollars
I was at the Nike store in Seattle a couple of days ago to try on the "new" releases. I was never able to wear any Mercs because I have wide flat feet, but I tried these on and I was surprised to see how comfortable they were. That upper is next level
@@jamesmitchell4343 well I haven't played an actual game in them, so I can't really say. I only tried them on in store and they were surprisingly comfy.
Eric Redona hey how do they feel now ? I’m looking into getting some but I have wide flat feet like you. Do they feel comfortable after playing in them and breaking them in ? And would you recommend going a size up ?
What about the advertisement costs? The engineering costs? Shipping costs? Employees' salaries? Profit of the company? Do you live under a rock or what?
f you're implying that these are the same a regular pair of socks, that's a little silly. Obviously all of these boots cost a lot less to produce than they sell them for, but that's not all that goes into what determines the price of anything.
The only thing I hate it’s still a split sole design,I had my mercurial superfly 6 back heel sole broke off after a year and a few months,none of my other boots have done that
would you please review the AG-Pro version of these boots? They look much closer to the FG version, rather than the typical AG-Pro they used to put on all AG boots.
would love to see a video on the mercurial elite superfly for the turf or indoor variation, ive been playing pro all my life in the vapor and mercurial for soft and firm ground, would love the exact same mercurial for turf/indoor, thanks josh
Joben, just a quick one on these boots. I have been wearing a pair for a few training sessions now, the first Mercurial Vapor / Superfly's I have ever owned. Loving them, but today was the first time I have worn them in the rain. Only a light rain, so the ground was still firm but wet on top. Anyway I noticed that my feet got wet in the boots, not something I particularly have an issue with football boots. Is this normal for these models, or have my boots sprung a leak somewhere? This wasn't like just a bit damp, I could feel how wet my socks were like I had been standing in a puddle. Cheers, Jim.
Are the Puma King Platinums suitable for wide feet ? Leather is a good way to try and make sure they’ll fit ok but from the review you said they fit snug, would they be uncomfortable ?
Hey Jaylor.... What You are thinking about geting a new pair of Puma One 1 K-Leth in FG/AG nowadays? I bought few months ago a Adidas Ace 17.1 in AG and I just simply don't like how this boots feel. I really like my old Ace 15.1 but now I'm looking for something what feels like some sort of power boot and here comes this Pume One 1. And do You sugest to look for older top models of boots or maybe I should take a look for modern takedown models like Nike Tiempo Legend 8 Academy? Right now I could buy Pume One 1 at similliar price like new Tiempo Legend 8 Academy model.
i just want to ask if im currently staying in a hot country for example singapore which have average weather of 30-35 degrees celcius, is it okay to buy a leather boot since its not a good idea for putting a leather boot under direct hot sunlight ?
Will be upgrading my worn twice Vapor X which were so uncomfortable and tight for these beauties. Seems like a huge jump. Plus found them for $140 on WSS!!

Compare these to the Flynit Ultras. The 'best ever mercs'
Ty Ritchie they even look like them in this colourway
Ty Ritchie yessss
I don't think they make em anymore they were good while they lasted...
@@davea3641 Yah not no more but they were some great boots
Soooo no ACC symbol. I was going to buy but now I obviously can’t 😒😭
get jACC in on this issue
Elias Dahri because ACC makes you play like Cristiano Ronaldo

That’s absolutely socking!
Not on the stringbag either, wtf????😡

I have to say I strongly disagree! Having worn them all This is how I would rank them.
1. Vapor 12
2. Vapor 11
3. Vapor 14
4. Vapor 15
5. Vapor 13
Broooo yes yes, I agree. That’s the only boots I buy

Your sock jokes are sockingly bad

I liked it :)
These are some nice sock-er cleats. No? OK I'll walk myself out 😢
What the "sock" is this all about?
Tiki Taka Football booo ur puns socks

Did you order your size or did you go up on size?
thanks for telling me everything about the tech of the mercurial vapor 13
Jeremy I figured out where the acc branding is
Invisible technology = invisible branding
Argyle Rollo innovation at its finest
Just received mine today and these really are a step up from the previous Vapor’s. feel much better on feet and snug aswell compared to the previous MV 12’s. Really worth it if anyone is looking to buy them
Vapors look much better than the Superflies this generation in my opinion
OMyCodd always have
I’d argue the superfly 2 and 3 looked better than the vapor 6 and 7, respectively
@@OMyCodd agreed

It really be hard watching reviews when you know you can't afford to buy them

go to ebay right now, I just got a pair for $70 brand new
I’m not sure where you live but if your in Canada there is a Nike clearance store it’s a huge store with only clearance last season I got vaper 12 elites for only 60 dollars
You can now on ebay
Needed this in quarantine when I have to order shoes without feeling them out in the store.
If they fit Josh they can fit a Sumo
Is it just me but did he not talk about the change position of the tick
its a S W O O S H

So you’d recommend for someone with wide feet? I’ve wore Predator 18.1 last season but am looking at these this year.

Hey Josh, would you consider your foot to be wide or narrow or In between? I’ll use your answer as a measure to pick my boots. Thanks 🙏
I have average width feet, but am fairly flat footed.
@@Soccerreviewsforyou thanks Josh! One last question if you don’t mind. What boots do you wear during your games?
Very nice. Trying to locate the AG pro variation as I type this....
I got these for middle school soccer and I finally got my coach’s attention 😭
How long did they last
Vapor 13 elite vs X 19+ or 19.1
I did notice that the studs are a bit longer, at a glance it's a remarkable difference.
13's look much better than 12's
Great video, and great new boots
best reviews for years
it's a real achievement to sell a pair of "socks" for 250$, specially when you consider that the production cost for that pair of socks is around 15$.
What about the advertisement costs? The engineering costs? Shipping costs? Employees' salaries? Profit of the company? Do you live under a rock or what?
I don't mind buying these socks for 80£
@@normadicn5700 good for you!

Thank freaking god they lowered the volume of the fit nike let me down with the last pair
Jim where is the what's in my Soccer bag series please make it the next video😖😖
i want to see the reviews of the pros and academys
the academy is the basic one without the flyknit or small amounts
fizzy man9 not really the pro is more of like the vapor 11 with the Teijin synthetic
Oh my God!! I’m so glad Nike went back to the old swoosh on the sides like in the 2000s
It’s extremely socking!
Just bought vapor 12’s 😐
hey joe, A tier or S tier?
S tier
The only thing I hate it’s still a split sole design,I had my mercurial superfly 6 back heel sole broke off after a year and a few months,none of my other boots have done that
Paco Alonso that’s because you’re buying the superfly variation and not the low cut OG vapors. Superfly are for children, vapor is for adults lol
@@no92108 The Vapor has the same issues.
T Hakala what the hell are y’all doing to your shoes! Lol Remember the old vapors with the lace cover that used to fall apart after like 3 months??
Are these the best ever mercurials?
Steven Van Tilburg yes IT isss
Steven Van Tilburg for sure dude
Thankyou for the great string bag review.
Yo josh i haven't come to your channel for a while tho but im back and nice video as always!!!
Idk how you have such low views....u desrever way more Jeff💪
Can you compare the vapor 11 and 13 Im still in love with the vapor 11 but my pair is very worn down and i’m looking for new cleats
Hold up, why would anyone dislike these soccer cleat vids😂, there’s nothing too dislike. It’s just a handsome man reviewing football boots.
I don't know why, but i got blisters on both foot, in heel part...it's kinda stiff back there. Maybe they didn't break in yet for me.
They are really stiff, and take quite a while to break them in
@@josiah5942 yep. But it's already gettin better! But other than that, they feel amazing on foot :D
do video about paolo guerrero's soccer boot using the canopy america
These are so friggin sick!!! I got the blackout superfly 6 elites and those are awesome but these look even better
I just bought those in blue and they are really good
Are they narrow or wider then vapor 12
They fit tighter.
So as for the superfly 6, are they gonna bring out a new Mercurial superfly ?
I have the vapor 13’s and it fits perfectly but I get cramps on the outside of my foot but no where else.. why is this ?
Just ordered these bad boys! Most exciting boots I've recently purchased can't wait
How are/were they?
@@Rark470 probably the best performing and feeling boots ever made. subjectively
@@DD-jx9jd sick mate cheers
Hey Josh, please make a video on difference between pebax and tpu soleplate and the pros and cons of each.
Will you review the superfly 7 academy?
I just bought Vapor 12 Nike ID so No Vapor 13’s For me, I wasn’t expecting these
Joachim De kimpe check release calendars before you buy
would you please review the AG-Pro version of these boots? They look much closer to the FG version, rather than the typical AG-Pro they used to put on all AG boots.
Man I am sad they are not produced anymore. Its a shame that they are moving away from the fly knit
I also feel like they were inspired by the hypervenom phantom just that the craters on the skin are smaller, that's what makes it look like a net
would love to see a video on the mercurial elite superfly for the turf or indoor variation, ive been playing pro all my life in the vapor and mercurial for soft and firm ground, would love the exact same mercurial for turf/indoor, thanks josh
I’m a 7/7.5 uk in Adidas.. I just bought these in a 7.5 but bloody hell they’re tight. Not sure if to buy a size 8 or 8.5 now
Did you break into them?
@@dannylyons824 no, had to get the size 8's instead and they're a lovely fit now
CAN WE GET A PLAY TEST VIDEO ON THESE
HAMI ye
The ag pro isn’t out, when do u think it will come out?
Jacob MacLeod like 2 weeks maybe
just bought these in the ac sg version, hopefully they´re good
great work Jacinto!
hey josh..what about the take down models..when are they releasing..?
That intro socked
wider or narrower than the previous?
Hi Jocrates. What do you mean when you say 'responsiveness of the boot'? Thanks!
our soccer field gets salted, does the vapor 13 pro gets damaged by the salt? dont wanna ruin it
Will the FG not be good for turf? Why is there not an AG in the US?
i actually just bought the vapor 12 elites a month ago

I wouldn't say that it's abnormal. If there's enough water, eventually it will get in. I'd say that's the case with pretty much any boots though.
Are the Puma King Platinums suitable for wide feet ? Leather is a good way to try and make sure they’ll fit ok but from the review you said they fit snug, would they be uncomfortable ?
Been waiting for this vid all day!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻 Thank you beautiful man!!
Curious what the new Mercurial Vapor 13 Pro's will be...
why are there no ag pro mercurials on your website pleeaaass i play on both grass and turf
Josh which one should I get this the vapor 13 Elite or the flyknite ultra ?
I'd go for the Vapor.
hey josh so would you choose the vapor 13’s or the flyknit ultras
Joshua, wich color of the 3 schemes do you personally find more appealing? with one do you think its cooler?
is the lockdown better on these or the phantom venoms
I'd say these, but they're both excellent.
Hey Jaylor.... What You are thinking about geting a new pair of Puma One 1 K-Leth in FG/AG nowadays? I bought few months ago a Adidas Ace 17.1 in AG and I just simply don't like how this boots feel.

Good video Jacqueese
If the boots are really thin wouldn't I have to worry about them over stretching? And wouldn't there be durability issues along with that?
Do a review on the vapor 13 pros
i just want to ask if im currently staying in a hot country for example singapore which have average weather of 30-35 degrees celcius, is it okay to buy a leather boot since its not a good idea for putting a leather boot under direct hot sunlight ?
These vapor 13s busted me heel hard core blister about 3 by 1 inch. Used them for 15 mins and couldn’t wear shoes for 3 days -.-
Hey Josh, because of the increased stud length would you advise not using these on AG more than you normally do?
I wouldn't recommend wearing these or the previous gen FG boots on artificial grass.
Will be upgrading my worn twice Vapor X which were so uncomfortable and tight for these beauties. Seems like a huge jump. Plus found them for $140 on WSS!!
I have tried the mecurial vapor 13s a lot and used the phantoms but for both the side of my foot (the inside of the boot) sinks into the side of the boot. Its really uncomfortable only there. Do you think it will be better to go for an Adidas speedflow .1? My feet are quite narrow
I knew there was a reason he was using the term sock boot and not fly knit upper 🤦♂️ that pun socked
does this new upper help preventing blisters since it supposes to hold your feet in place?
So how do you clean it
Same way you'd clean any other boot.
Which one is more durable? The vapor 13 or vapor 12?
Does the sole plate wear easily like previous releases?
i hope u review the superfly 7 in the blue colorway jonathan
Felipe ELbOy he already bought the blackout colorway
how did he lace them like that on foot?
Hey Josh, are these super dangerous to use on AG or just a little dangerous? Given that thy are a FG soleplate?
I wouldn't recommend wearing these FG boots on artificial grass.
are the takedown pros still sockingly good too?
«Josh from SOCKer reviews for you» ;) See what I did there?
No? Ok, I’ll leave
Buffen ur not funny
Jk lol x’s xd
Hdhshsshsh H Yeah, I know the joke socked... Ok, that was the last one
Buffen just shut the sock up already
Makanui Knell XD

taytus whole u stupid
@@larserik1235 it's going to fit some people, so they're not really stupid if it works and fits them perfectly as is
Bradley Sparkes ur stupid to
Gotta try these but doubt it will beat the Vapor xi
How are the durability on the Vapor 13s?
Hey Josh, i was just wondering
Do you prefer these or do you prefer the phantom gt elite?
I'm very curious at how they compare to the Phantom Vision from a fitment (is that a word?) Point of view..
Question is are these more durable than the previous generation vapors ?
How does it compare to the Ultra and the 11?
Please compare to x 19.1 or 18.1
