Who should buy the Nike Zoom Mercurial Superfly 9 Elite Firm Ground
There is no question that the zapatillas de running Nike ritmo medio talla 28 Elite FG works well. However, the Vapor 14 Elite was also a good performer, and it appears now that the two cleats don't really differ much when it comes to performance level. Hence, only those who are new to the Nike Mercurial line can fully appreciate the goodness that the newer release brings.
Besides Mercurial neophytes, the following are also a good match for the Mercurial Vapor 15 Elite FG:
- players who do not mind buying pricey cleats for soccer
- soccer enthusiasts who have slightly wide feet
Who should NOT buy this firm ground soccer cleat from Nike
The Superfly 8 Pro from Nike is a better pick for buyers who want to save some of their cash. This option is not only cheaper but also performs almost at the same level as the Vapor 15 Elite.
Those who have been using Nike Mercurials may find the zapatillas de running Nike ritmo medio talla 28 Elite FG too familiar. It does not really deviate far from the Nike Zoom Mercurial Vapor 14 Elite in terms of overall performance on the pitch. So, if the fans already have the Vapor 14 and it's still in good condition, they are not going to miss much if they do not get the new Vapor 15 Elite.
Enjoy a great feel with the Mercurial Vapor 15
The feel of the zapatillas de running Nike ritmo medio talla 28 Elite FG is "really something special" underfoot according to one expert. He adds that the shoe's feel is "the element that is revolutionary" in this shoe. Going to the specifics, he says that his pair of Vapor 15s just have "much flow to them," giving him an experience that is "unlike anything else."
Another expert agrees, and he says that the footbed delivers "unique-feeling sensations" because of the Zoom unit embedded in it.

Any shoe that has a Zoom unit in it is expected to deliver lots of energy return. This is not necessarily the case with the Mercurial Vapor 15 Elite. An expert says that while the bounciness is still there, it's not at the expected level. What the Zoom unit brings, instead, is an amazingly smooth feel that has been described in the previous section. This is an unintended benefit, but it has become this shoe's highlight.

Mercurial Vapor 15: Perfect length, more width
An expert says that this shoe is able to fit him "absolutely perfectly" as far as the length is concerned. He also notices that the structure is made a little wider, though still not wide enough for wearers with really wide feet.
Another expert says that the shoe being wider is both a good thing and a bad thing. It's good because it has become accommodating, it's bad because it makes it less nimble and affects touch quality.
The Vapor 15 Elite FG is featherlight
At only 6.6 ounces or 187 grams, the zapatillas de running Nike ritmo medio talla 28 Elite Firm Ground is really light, especially when you consider that it bears a lot of techs.

An expert shares that the sole plate of the zapatillas de running Nike ritmo medio talla 28 Elite FG does a "fantastic job" of digging into the grass and even gripping the turf. This gives him a lot of pivoting power.
Enjoy a precise feel of the ball
An expert points out that the pliable upper makes it possible for him to feel "pretty straightforward" upon contact with the ball. Had the shoe been as narrow as the previous Vapors, he says that the already good ball touch would have been better.
