Vapor 8 Teaser
Without the introduction of the Mercurial series back in the day I doubt we would have a speed boot race at the moment. Maybe more focus/emphasis would have been put on power or even the new emerging silo called control which in my opinion just focuses on comfort. However, because of the Mercurial series we have the speed boot race and with one of the most anticipated boot releases of 2012 the Vapor is in the limelight once again.
Many haters and old vapor fans are very interested to see what this boot has to offer because lets be honest the Vapor VII was stiff, rigid and lacked a locked down affect and rather then innovate the boot Nike changed the color over and over again and to be honest I am not sure if they started with purple or blue first. Either way, after looking back at 2011 my head is still spinning with all of the color choices. With the Vapor VIII Nike has changed the upper to make it more form fitting along with manipulate the out-sole to make the boot less rigid and more flexible/comfortable. The upper will be a point of difference on the synthetic boot market because it is so soft that with the touch of your finger nail you can leave an imprint. Rather then fight the lightweight race/competition Nike has focused on the fit of the boot rather then the weight. By concentrating on the fit of the boot and the lock down affect Nike is hoping to provide a sock like fit like the OG vapors back in the day which were simple, light and offered some comfort rather then the rigid ride the glass and carbon fiber out soles provide nowadays.
However, I believe with this release Nike missed one major step in producing the best speed boot in 2012 and it as to do with the overall fit of the boot and maybe someday soon I will have a hand in the process. I live and breath boots, enjoy the leaks.

T90 IV Un-Boxing via Hamid
Would like to thank Hamid for giving Footy Guru a shout-out in his newest un-boxing. Hamid recently received the T90 IV Grey/Pink color way and I must say after seeing these boots up close makes me want a pair. Have always had a thing for retro pink on boots and this color way is nasty. Check the video/boots out....
In addition, if you have an un-boxing or free style video send it my way and I will put it on the blog.

Vapor8 Teaser...
Vapor 8 Teaser... The fit and the upper will be completely different with a glove like fit that will fit like the OG Vapor series that many of us loved. You can say good bye to the stiff upper that almost seemed like a hard plastic and did not conform to your foot at all. With this edition, Nike have shaved down the upper to make it thinner and more flexible to provide a glove like/lock down effect that many speed demons love and want in a speed boot... More info coming soon until then enjoy the teaser.

Premium Kangaroo leather; Nike Tiempo IV Elite Teaser...
Chicharito fans will you please stand up! After looking at this color way i could only help but think of Manchester United and the Mexican savior Chichi...So without any further anticipation, i would like to introduce the The new Nike Legend IV Elite WHT/RED color way.
The boot is made of Premium Kangaroo leather, only available in the Tiempo IV Elite, which is why many of you footy fans are wondering why the elite version is so much more supply/softer then the regular Tiempo. The reason is because it is elite so Nike gives you a little more premium joey. The upper is made from the softest and strongest high performance k-leather available. The same premium leather was first used by Nike in the 10R collection back in the day as i am sure many of you footy fans remember. Now however the boots have changed and for the Tiempo Legend IV Elite, further advancements have been made making the leather stronger and softer.
Vamp stitching on the upper is one of the key factors in providing the soft touch and feel the Nike Legend is famous for. The boot is all about being simple, classic, and preaches touch. The new diagonal stitching in the new Tiempo Legend IV prevents the boot from over stretching while the clean minimal-stitched area at the front of the boot creates a clean surface for great touch. In addition, the carbon fiber sole-plate on the Nike Tiempo Legend IV Elite features a combination of elliptical and bladed studs that are injected on the composite carbon outsole. Nike's famous carbon fibre sole plates have become an integral part of their Elite range and are scientifically proven to give players an edge in the final stages of a game. However, at first the carbon fiber can be very stiff and actually takes time to break in...
As a top level Nike football boot, the new Tiempo IV Elite's will be priced at around $350. To be honest with you, this boot is truly a hybrid and a concept boot that is very special and offers a lot of class and style to your game. The boots are around 9.4 which is decent due to the K-Leather upper. The boots drop 1/1/2012 so if you are a heritage/simple guy and can deal with the white upper this could be your next boot!
SuperFly is dead...
This is kind of an old news release aka no surprise because once again Nike has released yet another color way of the superfly/vapor series and this time it is a grape/dark purple paint job that almost reminds me of purple drink.
I will never forget when I interviewed for a job at Nike for a soccer merchant position and one of the guys asked me what I thought about the superfly... I made the statement that probably shocked the room but I told them that the superfly was dead! He asked dead? I told him almost two years to today that the boot was dead and at one point there was a market for this crazy concept boot/price point but Nike sat on the boot/concept for too long and what was once a concept/crazy idea is now more of a market gimmick with a price point consumers now seem to laugh at.
Do not get me wrong, the superfly WAS an amazing boot but over time Nike sat on the boot for too long and rather then innovate the boot even more and change the boot they changed the paint job of the boot which let's be honest just gives the soccer poseurs another color way to buy/collect.
Never the less, here are teaser images of the next SuperFly color way. The boots drop 1/1/2012 and will have the same price tag aka $400 so start saving your money if you like purple drank!
