WHICH ONE IS BETTER? - Adidas F50 Elite vs Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite

We haven't been able to ask this question for 9 years, but in 2024 should you go with F50s or Mercurials? In today's video we compare every detail of the Adidas F50 Elite and Nike Zoom Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite, along with all of the different variations within each of these two lines. From touch, traction, feel, weight and comfort, we break down all the differences between them, which areas one outperforms the other, and ultimately which one you should pick if you're on the market for a new pair of "speed" boots in 2024! Which one would you pick?

Seems like the f50 is too flat. My son uses Speedportal+ & crazyfast+ and said the f50 felt flat as in not a really good feeling at the toe box also not very stiff of baseplate of the boot 😊

I’d love to see a comparison between the mercurial and F50+ soleplates.

The zoom unit in the previous mercurial changed the game for me so the F50+ seems like the only plausible option to move away from mercs…

Hi Josh, love your review. Considering the Mercurial Pro model usually has a similar upper compared to the Elite, how much different do you think this generation Pro model will be conpared to the Elite?

I imagine the Pro upper won’t have the Gripknit and Atomknit, but it will still have the Elite’s Flyknit material. Considering it’s a takedown version, this will be a very impressive feature, and could even a better choice for players who would not want too much grip on their Mercurials.

We’re back to 2014. Adidas with an amazing f50 and Nike with a great knitted sock like mercurial.

How do you keep clean the white nike gripknit? It’s very hard to remove the dirt with a soft tooth brush and soap.

My F50 pro have been amazing so far on AG. I did have to go half a size down from my usual 9 american.

Jesus Christ is coming soon and He loves you dearly, John 3:16 says “For God so loved the world that He gave his Only Begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life”. Come to Christ Jesus your God.

[ttv_itspxrcs]

just a few questions for anyone who can answer, how come the first 2 vapor 16 boots that costed $275 are now gone? i can’t seem to find them anywhere. also, why are they more expensive? and lastly, are they gonna come back?

[ahmadhamdani]

Tried the f50s, the upper is so hard and stiff, almost plasticy.

[SSLCLIPS-TV]

Rank these boots in terms of power generation

[kevinburola]

Which synthetic upper would you say is the most advanced in a technological stand point?

[leexri]

urgent help needed!! I love the Vapor 15, they fit me perfectly.. I just got the Vapor 16 and HATE it.. they have ruined the fit for me. I need to find a boot that fits as snug as a Vapor 15 with tight lockdown.. any recommendations?

I just tried on some GX2 and they felt better that the Vapor 16
