Update: Nike officially launches the special Mercurial Vapor 16 “Deja Vu” football boots, which pay direct homage to one of the most popular Mercurial designs of the modern era: the Vapor 12 'Fast AF' pack from 2018. They will already be released on Thursday, 13 November 2026.
Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 'Deja Vu' - Total Orange/Metallic Vivid Gold
Here are the new Nike 'Deja Vu' Mercurial 25-26 football boots.
The new Nike Mercurial 25-26 'Deja Vu' football shoes are a clear tribute to the original 'Fast AF' pack from February 2018, which was the launch colorway for the revolutionary Mercurial 360 (Vapor 12).
The most iconic feature of that 2018 shoes was the massive 'M' (for Mercurial) logo on the heel. This Vapor 16 boot brings that signature detail back, placing a large, stylized 'M' on the heel.
While the 2018 boot featured a solid orange upper, this new Vapor 16 gives the colorway a modern twist. It features a striking orange-to-light-orange/yellow gradient that moves from the heel to the toe. This is combined with a bold black Swoosh.
The Nike Mercurial 2025 'Deja Vu' are the same as all previous colorways tech-wise.
