I just bought these and am a former college level player and still play competitively. I have regularly worn adidas turf copas, or puma king cleats, and my adidas turfs have felt very clunky and I have always preferred cleats over turfs for shooting and feel. I just tried the Nike Zoom Mercurial Vapor 16 Pro (black and blue ice) and I love it. It is much lighter than I expected. It feels like a cleat in terms of size, agility, and touch, and the way it wraps my foot. As a turf it of course feels better and more supportive on hard turf surfaces and I wore it on grass and it still worked great. The design is cool without being obnoxious. It’s my first time wearing synthetic material instead of leather and I am surprised how light it is. The touch is still good. I’m sure it will take a little adjustment as the ball stuck to my shoe a little more but that can be a good thing once controlled. It is true to size and I’m a 9.5 and a 9.5 fits perfectly. I love that it has little air or foam support around your heel which feels great and that it has the zoom technology which supposedly provided a little extra support and bounce when running. It fits like a sock which is great. Awesome shoe, wish I switched to Nike earlier!

Enhanced Touch
All Conditions Control (ACC) technology adds a grippy texture in both wet and dry conditions.
Fast Traction
A new generative design outsole offers extra support in the heel and super-sticky traction when stopping and swerving.
Snug Fit
For the first time in Mercurial, we’ve developed a full Flyknit upper. It’s tuned for the needs of the game and sent through the Mercurial filter, so it’s engineered for speed. An incredibly lightweight, yet strong Flyknit on the side panels provides support and brings you closer to the ball.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have wide feet and these Vapors still manage to fit me well. Snug fit plus feels super lightweight.
