Nike Release Mercurial Vapor Air Max 95 Boots

Nike has done it again—after the huge success of the first Mercurial Air Max 95 mashup, they're back with a fresh drop that blends street swagger with on-pitch precision.

The latest release celebrates the 30th anniversary of the iconic Air Max 95 trainer, and this time, it's the Mercurial Vapor stepping into the spotlight. Sleek, fast, and futuristic, this boot isn’t just built for speed—it’s built to turn heads.

Designed with a chrome-effect soleplate featuring a bold “1995” stamp, the boots are a direct nod to the year that changed the sneaker game forever. The wavy design lines echo the original Air Max 95 aesthetic, giving the boot serious streetwear energy. It's a love letter to sneaker culture—with studs.

The iridescent detailing is next-level, catching the light with every step, twist, and sprint. A “Nike Air” callout sits proudly on the heel, while the tongue gets a slick update—swapping “Air Max” for “Air Zoom” in a Mercurial-style remix. Stylish, tech-packed, and pitch-ready, this is one anniversary celebration we’re happy to see go extra.

Once a force to be reckoned with on the pitch, Tasha’s love for football spans over a decade—until her playing career was cut short by the classic knee injury story—a setback that shifted her focus but never dulled her love for the sport. She previously played for Carlisle City and Stanwix Ladies before swapping her boots for a whistle. Now an FA-qualified referee, she spends her time officiating for Newcastle United’s academy as well as your typical Sunday league, channelling her inner Anthony Taylor on weekends (but without the VAR controversies). Since joining the team in 2023, Tasha has crowned herself the resident expert on all things sport and fashion. Whether she's ranking questionable kits or offering insight into trending trainers, her observations are sharp, insightful, and on point. She's got a knack for finding the perfect blend of performance and style—just don’t ask her to pick a favourite Premier League kit of the season unless you're ready for a heated debate.
