Nani sporting the Vapor VI in preseason of this year. However, he has recently switched to the adidas f50 adizero.
Review:
This shoe has come a long way and so has the game of soccer since 1998. For example, just take a look at Christaino Ronaldo's game, which like the original R9 has put Nike Soccer and this shoe back on map. With its light Teijn microfiber upper the shoe conforms to your foot and is very light, which sets it apart from other shoes on the market.Unlike past vapors, the Vapor VI is lighter and thinner than the Mercurial V. In addition, the Vapor VI is equipped with a glass fiber outsole plate for greater speed and a decrease in weight, with the change of outsole the boot now only weighs 8 oz. All around, the combination of light Teijn microfiber upper along with the glass fiber outsole makes the Vapor VI the ideal lightweigt performance product built for speed.
Changes in Performance/Profitability:
- Caron fiber outole to decrease weight.
- Adding either full-grain kangaroo leather or kanga-lite to the upper for a different feel/version of the shoe.
- Removing the lace covering for better ball feel.
- Would like to see a hybrid version of the orginal R9 vapor and the current model.
