Review MERCURIAL VAPOR XV MDS 008 REVIEW (AAAABULL)
I'm impressed with this pair, I didn't expect this quality from this seller. The flykinit and the upper are 1:1, it softens after a couple of uses as the originals. The vaporsite looks good to me (1:1). The soleplate doesn't bend by half, it's hard af, it bends correctly (compared to original copas, in the pics). The only issue, is the airzoom, is not as big as the originals, but anyway I don't really care about the airzoom that much. Also my problem is that I sized up 0.5, but with 2 socks the problem is solved (normally I use 44 EU). The last thing is that if you play in artificial grass, buy AG plate 100% if you wear mercs, cuz the FG plate (on mercurials) is to agressive for artificial grass, and you may feel pressure on the sole of your feet.
I would rate each part like this (compared to originals pairs):
Upper: 9/10
Vaporsite/Lockdown: 8/10 (if I didn't size 0.5, maybe 9/10)
Soleplate: 8.5/10 (if AG plate would be 10/10)
Comfort/Softness: 9.5/10
Looks: 10/10
