Nike has once again honored its legacy with the release of the Mercurial Vapor 1 "Shock Orange" boots on May 19, 2025. This limited edition combines the iconic design of the 2002 original with the advanced technology of the Vapor 16.
Design and Performance
The "Shock Orange" colorway is a vibrant nod to the early 2000s, featuring a bold orange upper with white accents. The upper mirrors the original Vapor 1's sleek, lightweight design, while the soleplate incorporates the modern Vapor 16's stud configuration for enhanced traction and speed.
A Tribute to Football Legends
This release is more than just a boot; it's a tribute to the players who defined an era. The original Vapor 1 was famously worn by Cristiano Ronaldo in 2003, marking a significant moment in football history. The "Shock Orange" remake continues this legacy, celebrating the fusion of style, speed, and performance.
Availability
As part of a limited release, the "Shock Orange" Vapor 1 boots are available exclusively through select retailers and Nike's official channels. Collectors and players alike are encouraged to act quickly to secure a pair of these historic boots
