Vapor 8 problems?

I've read a lot about the Vapor 8s. Durability seems to be the major issue.


Very sad state-broken stud
The stud seems to be broken off where the hole is. The twin back studs seem to have problems supporting weight. (So many people have complained about the back studs breaking) 
Of course, it didn't break where it was reinforced with the 'rib'. It broke off where the material became thinner (as a result of the hole in the stud)
Ooooo... That's pretty bad.

Is that picture even real? OMG look at how worn out the studs are. 














The Mercurial vapor 8 line is a 'performance tire/tyre'. They go a good job on the pitch but durability is low. You have to keep changing them. :|  *Some sort of designer football boots that don't really last.



On the other hand:  

Look at what I've found:





OK, this person 'Nate Robinson' has the Mango version-'suede finish' 
Seriously 4 months? Sounds good. (I saw some people saying they had rips after 1 day -.-)
It's funny: I live next to the woods.

This feedback is extremely positive. 'no ripping or durability issues at all'

Ohhh... 

I saw the new CTR 360 Maestri IIIs at Nike KLCC. They have the FG AND SG versions.



I also saw the Nike Mercurial Vapor Superfly III in the Red Plum/Volt colourway. MYR 690. Good price.
Size: US 10 1/2, UK 9 1/2. Very cool colour. 'MADE IN ITALY' ---That's my favourite part.
+Sense stud
+Flywire
+Carbon fiber


The Superflys seem to be really high tech and expensive. But now, since the release of the Vapor 8s, the price has dropped. The cheapest is £100 for UK 10 Red Plum. If colour is not an issue, then £115 will get you the one in granite (many sizes). I don't know why the ones in purple are so expensive. (£194.99)
All the crappy sizes.

Nike Mercurial vapor VIII

I was just browsing through the replica Vapor VIII boots on Facebook.
Let me think of the Pros and Cons:


Pros:
  • Cheaper
  • Same / better durability  (so many people complain about the rips they are getting from their boots)  I think the replicas are better, ironically.
  • More choice of colourways-(having a 'custom Nike ID look' )
  • Less 'heartache' when the boots are broken/have rips/beyond repair.

Cons:
  • It's 'fake'. 
  • People might tell they're fake.
  • Psychological effect (You know their replicas)
  • Might not have the Tepex glass fiber sole plate. 
  • Material might be different
  • Comfort / safety might be compromised. (I doubt it really. Customers say that the replicas are also comfortable)
  • Heavier(Exact  words by the seller: Weight difference. By a few grams. Hmmm... I'm not sure what he meant by 'few grams' 5g? 50g? 100g?)

Hakka Restaurant

This white Bentley Continental GT/Supersports pulled up right in front and parked there. (BLD 8)
WOW... the car was admired by many. There were several groups. three men were standing at the back while waiting for their car. Then came another group. They were just admiring the car, starting from the back and proceeding to the side, then walked off. The passenger was sitting on a chair having a fag.
OMG I never knew the Bentley Continental GT looked so big. Black rims.
Pull up in front of Hakka Restaurant... Like a boss. 


Drive a Bentley, be noticed... lol 
Like the attention?
