i think this is true beside price and weight.

same suds, external heel counter, syntetic.

different synthetic...kng 75 v teijin(nikeskin)

tejin is the same as nike skin??
it feels different

yeah its ALWAYS been teijin..but now they just dont call it nikeskin..

They've just changed the teijin a little from Vapor I to III. I have a fresh pair of Vapor I's and the material is a lot different from Vapor IIs. My VapIIIs are coming tomorrow so I'll be able to compare them soon.

whats the weight from the Mercurial Talaria III ????

^hey man you didnt have to ask this same question in like 4 threads...they weight about 9 ounces..

I actually prefer being able to see an external heel counter on boots. Don't know why, just like the look of it...on some boots. I think it looks a tad odd not seeing it on the Vapor 3's. Maybe going to get a pair of Talarias.
