New with box - slight peeling along sock liner, look closely on last pic
The Upper:
The Vapor VI continued with the super lightweight Teijin synthetic material that was used on the previous Mercurial Vapor models
Similar to the previous Vapor V, the lace cover was used for a secure, locked in fit and a maximized strike zone
The Vapor VI did feature a slightly higher toe box than the previous models, making them a bit more spacious and not as tight as the other Mercurial models
The Sole Plate:
Nike introduced the glass fiber sole plate, a major difference from the previous model
The top model superfly used the carbon fiber material, but the glass fiber would remain as one of the most popular designs in terms of looks and performance
The glass fiber was bit more flexible and not as stiff as the carbon fiber, making it a preferred choice among many pros
Notes and Comments:
The Vapor VI was one of the most well built Mercurials that has held up quite well over time
The upper was known for being more durable, with a simple, yet super effective design
The sole plate remains as one of the greatest ever, lightweight, durable, and flexible
This was part of the iconic World Cup pack produced for the 2010 WC
