History meets hyperspeed. The Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite SE “Déjà Vu” revives the iconic orange DNA of past Mercs and pairs it with Nike’s lightest, most responsive build yet. A snappy 3/4-length Air Zoom unit energizes every step, while the ultra-thin Gripknit + Flyknit upper brings you closer to the ball for that clean, confident first touch—rain or shine.

Features

• Air Zoom Propulsion: A unique 3/4-length Air Zoom unit is embedded in the soleplate to deliver springy underfoot response when you accelerate, stop, and go again.
• Wave-Pattern Traction: Chevron studs arranged in a wave pattern help you bite into firm, natural grass for fast cuts and straight-line speed.
• Nike Gripknit Touch: Sticky, micromolded Gripknit wraps the toe and midfoot for a sculpted, track-spike-like fit and consistent grip in wet or dry conditions.
• Thinnest Mercurial Upper: Flyknit integrates with Gripknit to create the sleekest Vapor upper to date—locked-in feel with a shorter break-in.
• Speed-Built Comfort: A cushioned sockliner helps take the edge off high-intensity sprints without adding weight.
