DID THEY SCREW UP THE VAPOR? - Nike Mercurial Vapor 12 Elite - Review + On Feet
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 ноя 2024
- It's hard to believe we're on the 12th generation of the Mercurial Vapor, but the Nike Mercurial Vapor 12 Elite is here! The first Vapor since the Vapor 3 to not feature a Teijin synthetic upper, instead the boot is entirely constructed from Flyknit, along with a bunch of other new features! Did they change to much? Are they better or worse than the Vapor 11 they replace?

My Play Test Review of the Vapor 12 and Superfly 6 is live ruclips.net/video/QoZApmjo_DU/видео.html Check it out to see the boots in action and to hear what they're all about!
i guess I'm kinda randomly asking but does anyone know a good place to watch new series online?
Can you do a video comparing Vapor XI, Vapor XII and Flyknit Ultra, include vapor X too if you feel like it. That'd be awesome. GREAT VIDS.
Lucky Seven yes same.....
Please
That is a great video idea
Thanks for the string bag review. Best and most useful part of the video.
sparkslpl i bought a pair of superfly 5s ans i did not get the string bag. Can I do anything to get it ?
Except for the soleplate I think Vapor 11s look better than Vapor 12s
Phoenix12 to me, other than the outside swoosh this is one of the best looking boots.
Ur out of ur mind
This was the best vapor to date. Now its the 13. 14 is trash
It’s like the iPhone 10 compared to the iPhone 7
chloe's life you mean like a bigger screen?
Wolfy Lomgsnout s8 is better
Thank you for doing the review so quick
*solid orange sock*
*S O C C*
Bro who else pause the video every time that black screen in the intro come on so you can see what it says😂😂😂...
Vapor 11 was my favorite mercurial boot ever. Very responsive and tight fit, barefoot sensation.
The vapor 12 is the best mercurial in a technological standpoint but overall in my opinion the vapor 10 is the best mercurial ever made
The Vapor 10 was an awesome boot!
Frozen. Vro 11
Jr Martinez the vapor 11 is an amazing shoe no doubt about that but the vapor 10 had more of a "mercurial" experience than the vapor 11
Frozen. Vro i think im biased because of the sole plate lol, i prefer the 10s upper tho
Give this man an award for the best creative intro 😂😂
datguyshopz, Split sole!
That separate stud plate worries me. It doesn't look like there's a higher lip around the front to prevent separation.
That really bothers me because that was the first place to show significant wear before they added the clear lip to the previous generation and other lines.
I agree with you mate. i wonder if the durability is the same as vapor 11
Punch had multiple vapor 11’s and after one practice or game I had sole separation. The lip doesn’t do anything
Will you do a vid on the takedown versions of these next gen mercurial?
Absolutely.
Looking back from 2024, Mercurial 12 is definitely revolutionary, we can see many elements from mercurial 12 in 13,14 even 15
Josh will you be doing a play test with the new vapor 12 plz
Yes, that's coming!
Soccer reviews for you --> String bag reviews for you
Woo, Finally, been waiting on your review
Might we see teijin synthetic on a scaled down model in the mercurial line?
Highly doubt it
Oh boy do i have news gor you
I'm so happy to see this video, definitely my favourite football boot review channel.
It's not even a vapor anymore it's a superfly low 😢😢😭
Sorry to say, but they did screw up the Vapor 12.It's not as tight as the Perfect Vapor 11. I don't know if it's because of the new fabric or if they made it wider in the front, but many soccerplayers is "sliding" with the foot inside the shoe when they make quick turns or make a hard pass.Can not recommend this shoe, it's a step Down from the near Perfect Vapor 11.Hope Nike sees the mistake and make a tighter Vapor 13.
Moses parts the Red Sea.
Sometimes the choices in SR4U laces are not incredibly complimentary or stand out. But this time it makes the new Vapor look 100% better. Right on the money Josh!
Just to hide the fact that stud pattern is same as the vapor 11, they split the sole plate.
I bought nothing but adidas in the past bc they feel more comfortable overall. I wanted to try nike out so I got the vapor 12. After playing in these shoes, I'd have to say that the Adidas shoes are more comfortable, but I did get better touches with the vapors.
Which would you prefer - the Hypervenom Phantom 3 lows or the vapor 12? Also, do they fit similarly, or is the hypervenom wider? Thanks! Great video.
I really like the way these feel. It's early for me to say that I like them more than anything else though.
First person on internet to talk about the placement of swoosh. For me it just doesn't seem to be mercurial with that positioning of the swoosh
would u say that the upper is much more stiffer than the previous generation and also would u prefer the resposiveness and the feel of the upper more than the hypervenom ? Awesome review btw
No. These are still the most responsive boots from Nike as well. I go over all of the details in the video.
been waiting for this for so long, can't order a pair of boots without hearing what Josh has to say
damn Josh, you can easily sell a fridge to the eskimo. Your reviews are top notch! Which one do you prefer between Tiempo vs Vapor 12?
I personally prefer the Tiempos, but they're both excellent boots. It just depends on what type of fit and feel that you're looking for.
@@Soccerreviewsforyou cool thanks Josh, nice to know that. Just some final consideration before making my decision this coming black friday.
Josh I think you should start doing a poll in each of your review videos. It would be interesting to see what your viewers think of new boots etc
Keen to grab one ! Btw Josh, would you go with the Nemeziz 17.1 or Vapor 12?
I like these more.
Prefer the looks of the Vapor 11 but I’m sure there will be many other colors to come out... Also nice to see the split sole making a return since the predator powerswerves
Will there be a comparison video about vapor vs flyknit ultra?
Yes.
Hi Josh, could you do a review of the Nike MercurialX Vapor 12 Pro Indoor and the Under Armour Magnetico Select IN (They said it features ClutchFit 2.0 Technology). Very much appreciated and thank you.
Which is a better cleat: X17+ or the Vapor 12? And why?
They're very different when it comes to fit and feel. I don't necessarily think that one is better.
At first i was meh about the looks but the more i see it, the better it is
Now that you’ve tried this, do you recommend Vapor 360 or Hypevenom 3? Love my Vapor VIIIs and Hypervenom 3 DFs but want to pick up a low cut flyknit boot.
I can recommend either of them. They're both great options, just different.
I'm making the switch from superfly to vapor just because the collar looks dumb. IN MY OPINION the collar was better on the Superfly 4 over the 5 and 6.
It was i owned both the vapor 10s and superfly 4 between my sophomore and junior year and i LOVED THE VAPOR wayyyyy more then the superfly
Anyone know where I can still buy mercurial vapor 11s?
Hmmm I'm a bit nervous about the width because the Vapor 11's were perfect for my narrow feet
Great vid josh
Wonder if the downgrades will be a flyknit feeling/looking type of material
FidFid826 Soccer in my opinion the first takedown are going to have a a flyknit like material
Or a tejin synthetic.
Danimal The Animal I hope its a tejin synthetic for take down
Unlikely.
I do not like the look of the vapor 12 the 11 seems much better
Katherine Taylor I agreed with you.
Katherine Taylor lookswise: yes but performance-wise I can tell You as a user of both the new one is on a new level in terms of feel, simply amazing
Marcus C. Störup i personally prefer the 11 rather than these
Hey Josh! I've been wondering: Which boots would you say are the best that don't feature a one-piece upper on the market right now? If I recall correctly most of the top-end models nowadays are featuring something like that, or at least doesn't really have a tongue - which indicates to me that it's kind of that. Today a package arrived to me containing two pairs of Puma shoes: one is an Evopower 1.3 and the other is a EvoSpeed 1.5, and these boots gave me the idea to ask this question.
Everything from Mizuno is great! The new UA Magnetico is really good as well. Those are the first few that came to mind.
Hi Josh, great video as always. Do you know when the ag version will be available?
It looks like everything is going to be available around March 1st.
Thanks
Gonna miss the synthetic upper
Flyknit ultra vs Vapor 360 video?
The drama for the split sole is nice..
Do you prefer these to the Flyknit Ultras? I listened to what you said in the video and I'm curious as I'm getting the impression the upper on the FU is nicer
I think this is a more refined variation of what Nike did with the Flyknit Ultra. I really like the grip aspect of the Flyknit Ultra, but I prefer the way these fit.
Idk why, but i always laugh for every inteo taht josh made 😂😂😂👍
Am I the only one that really likes these?
I have a pretty narrow foot, should I purchase this item?
Looks interesting, grown on me alot. Performance-wise looks like the best Nike boot yet.
Pliz do for the takedown models
Crazy4TheWeekend ok thanks
cool video keep it up josh :) also will you do a play test on these?
I will be, yes.
Josh can you please do a review on the new Nike GK gloves that have no straps and have ACC.
I haven't watched any reviews on either shoe yet but by the looks of it the only difference between the new Superfly and vapor is the collar. Kind of a bad move if you ask me because the cheaper one will sell more which is probably the vapor even though they will probably give the Superfly more publicity. The last generations of the two were better because they were different.
I guess they've already done that with the hypervenom. Who knows which sold better.
which design do u personally prefer? Superfly 6 or vapor 12??
I prefer the look of the Vapor.
Do you prefer these or the Flyknit Ultra? Or is it to early to make that call?
I like the grippy aspect of the upper on the Flyknit Ultra, but I prefer the way the Vapor 12 fits. I'd value a better fit over just about anything else.
Josh do you prefer the vapor 12 or the vapor 11?
It's early for me to have a definitive position on that, but I'm definitely leaning more towards these. I liked the Flyknit Ultra more than both the Vapor 11 and Superfly 5, and the Vapor 12 is more like the Flyknit Ultra.
I know you haven't had these for that long, but based on your initial impressions, would you get these or the Hypervenom Phantom low cut?
It's too early for me to say for sure that I like one more than the other, but I really like the overall feel of these new Mercurials. They're fairly different as well.
When do these and the Superfly go on sale in the US?
It's looking like March 1st.
Thanks
Do you prefer the flyknit ultras over the new vapor and superfly?
I feel like these offer everything the Flyknit Ultras had, but with an improved fit.
best review i have seen so far. It's a Flyknit vapor iii lol the perforation is also on the iii's
Josh, do you think these are the best cleats if you are looking for a light barefoot feel?
They're one of the best for sure. I think the Vapor 11 is still a solid option as well. These are great too ruclips.net/video/RxF0JIPRCQs/видео.html
Is the Hypervenom Phelon III the same as the new Phantom III Academy since they've renamed them all now?
Also is the Phelon III still Nike's best takedown model in your opinion at that price point?
Yes, they're the same.
Can you show them how they fit? You mentioned you have a little bit of space in front of the big toe, but what about the other toes?
From 1 being the worse and 10 being the best what would you rate these shoes?
I really don't like ratings at all. The details are what matters.
I have heard that the vapor 12 is stiff at first and then they become softer .. what is your opinion Josh??
They definitely soften up as you wear them in, that's the case with almost any boot, but I don't think they're overly stiff out of the box at all.
Soccer Reviews For You thanks Josh
can we say that this is like a face-lift from superfly v to superfly 360? minor differences between the 2 boots, the major one being that there is a split soleplate.
These are significantly different from the Superfly 5. They feel and compare more closely to the Vapor 11 than they do the Superfly 5.
Hey josh, what do you think of the durability of the soleplate? especially the flyknit material that wraps it?
It should be fine.
The black laces actually make it look much better
Josh I bought a pair of the mv xii elite today and as I was trying them on, I felt that my entire sock is pulled to my toes as my feet is trying to get in the boots. Obviously the width of the boot is holding my sock as I push in. I try to put them on without pulling my sock backwards but I just cannot. Is this a problem that you also faced in the beginning? Should I be concerned? Thank you
Check out this video, it should help you out. The same steps would apply to putting these on. ruclips.net/video/xuvrGt7yxG4/видео.html
By the way josh you need to consider long drive to the indoor field for a play test of this cleats
Hey josh I have a question, if I’m a size 9, 9.5 on shoes and I want to get the Mercurial Vapor 11 what size do you think I would be in that model? By the way nice vid keep it up!!
You can't size soccer cleats accurately off of regular shoes.
why do these look so much nicer with black laces
Thomas Kilbride because the upper is orange
That intro killed me!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hey Josh, just in terms of barefoot feel, which would you prefer, vapor 12 or magnetic Pro from UA?
The Magnetico is definitely thinner.
Hey Josh, i noticed that nobody, whether it's here in Germany or outside of Germany, offers the new Superfly 6 and Vapor 12 elite with AG studs. Is Nike going to relase them with AG studs or not?
All the different version of the boots will be available around March 1st.
Hey josh do u think the takedowns are gonna be as good as the vapor 11 with the veloce and all them
I couldn't really say.
Do u think that being more diffiult to bootleg was a big factor contributing to choosing the split sole design?
I don't think so. There have been counterfeits of boots with a split sole for a log time now.
Do you think, because of the feedback, that they would in future colorways change the swoosh?
Possibly.
They are! The world cup edition will have it on the side. Like neymars vapor 11s
Oscar Hernandez how do you know
Suprised that you didnt review the new superfly first. Will that video be coming tommarow?
That's coming.
What size should I purchase if I wear a 9. US Nike Tiempo 7
i've been waiting for this.
finally! thanks josh
Which do you prefer, vapor 12 vs puma future 18.1
It's too early for me to have a strong preference.
I’m thinking about getting these but I already have hypervenom 3 elites in the launch color way. I just don’t know if i should stick with the hypervenoms or not?
Nick Rafael omg same lol... have p3 launch colorway but there are two new colorways for the phantom coming out in april...(ill just wait for that)
Hey Josh would you prefer a magista obra 2 or the vapor 12 for a really good lockdown and no slipping in the shoe at all? I have a bit wider feet and want good comfort but no slippage and has good lockdown..
At this point, it's too early for me to say that I like these more than other boots that aren't Mercurials.
Hi Josh. My local football store is having a closing down sale should I buy the X 17.1 in that black and yellow colourway ad it's £90. I currently have they X 17.3
If they're what you want.
I’ve been wearing mercurials my whole life but this is where i get off i don’t like this i’ll be going to the hypervenom low cut
I'm a size 10 in vapor 11s and bought a size 10 in these but they felt way bigger than the 11s. Should I go half a size down or a full size down due to it being roomy. Also, will they stretch?
They won't stretch. You'd you have to make the sizing call on your own based on how they feel.
Josh do you find the Predator 18.1 better than the vapor 360 (12) ?
No.
Hey Josh,
I need your opionion please.I have got 3 boots which i am concidering to buy.Tiempo Proximo 7 TF, Copa 18.1 Ag and Netfit 18.1 Mg(i think that Mg ist their Ag sole).I do like the feel of leather but leather breaks fast on hockeyturf if you buy it with a soleplate, bit i really like a soleplste more than an foammidsole.Should i buy a shoe which could possibly break very fast(Copa 18.1 Ag, Netfit 18.1 Mg)bit i would enjoy the feel or a shoe with more durabily but i mkght not enjoy the feel.
If durability is a concern, I'd go for the Future.
Soccer Reviews For You josh did you know that there is a low cut for the future?Are you going to review it and the takedowns from the future espacislly the 18.2 which still ass a takedown featere netfit!
Josh should decide what laces go on cleats at Adidas and Nike
I wanna buy but I'm worried about the split sole's durability issues...
Hey Josh, i wear a size 12 in the nike tiempo legend 7 elite. What size would you recommend for the Vapor XII?
You should be fine with the same size.
The question isn’t if it’s better than the vapor 11, the question is, is it better than the flyknit ultras
Hey Josh please tell me on which boot should I spend my money vapor 11 njr puro fenomeno vs hypervenom 3 elite low vs vapor 12 elite
All solid boots, it just depends on what type of fit and feel that you're looking for.
