The top of the Nike Mercurial Vapor 13 academy IC is made of lightweight but rather strong plastic. The shoes have a symmetrical lacing that allows to quickly adjust the tight fit to the foot. The upper has a relief structure that improves the touch of the ball and helps to create secure ball control. Rubber outsole has high wear resistance.
