Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite Blueprint FG Low

Obsessed with speed? We engineered the Air Zoom unit in the Vapor 16 Elite to the exact specifications of championship athletes. It gives you the propulsive feel you need to break through the back line. The result is the most responsive Mercurial we've ever made, because you demand greatness from yourself and your footwear.

Innovation Is Our Inspiration
Bill Bowerman, Nike’s original innovator, put our blueprint in place. He inspired the Blueprint collection design details, like the speckled Swoosh logo and sketches of feet on the insole. They remind us of where we’ve been as we keep moving forward.
Exceptional Touch
Nike Gripknit is a sticky material that provides better touch to the ball. It takes up more surface area, so you have more room to control the ball when dribbling at high speeds or finish a play with a shot on goal. It molds to the shape of your foot and gives you equal grip in wet or dry conditions for a sculpted, track spike-like fit. Micromolding texture works with Gripknit to help form to your foot for even better cleat-to-ball strikes.
Fast Traction
The wave-like traction pattern is a series of cascading studs, so it engages more surface area of the Air Zoom unit while also providing the appropriate amount of grip. The biggest stud is the same height as our traditional middle studs, so traction is not compromised. We paired the wave-like traction with evolved chevron and blade studs to help you stop when making quick cuts.
Snug Fit
The full Flyknit upper is engineered for speed. Atomknit, an incredibly lightweight and strong Flyknit, on the sides tapers weight and provides support. The Gripknit, Atomknit and Flyknit combine to form the thinnest Mercurial upper to date, bringing you closer to the ball and lessening break-in time.
