Details & story
Nike Mercurial Vapor XVI Shadow
Move like a shadow. The Nike Mercurial Vapor XVI "Shadow" drops in a stealthy Black/Glacier Blue finish — FQ1457-001 — built for players who disappear past defenders with explosive, low-cut speed. Part of the Mercurial Vapor XVI's cutting-edge speed lineage, the Shadow edition is designed for players who move fast and go unseen until it's too late.
The Vaporposite+ upper keeps a grippy, speed-focused texture for precise ball control at full pace, while Nike's Zoom Air unit in the forefoot delivers explosive energy return on acceleration. The low-cut collar and sock-like fit lock the foot in without sacrificing natural movement. Firm ground configuration, built for quick direction changes and sprint speed.
Key Features
- Zoom Air unit: explosive forefoot cushioning for sprint-ready acceleration.
- Vaporposite+ upper: grippy, lightweight texture for precision ball control.
- Low-cut design: natural ankle freedom for sharp cuts and turns.
- Sock-like fit: locked-in feel from first touch to top speed.
