The Nike Vapor Edge Pro 360 is a low-cut speed cleat for skill football players. It pairs a flexible mesh upper with thin support cables around the foot and a full-foot internal TPU chassis plus a plate built for aggressive grip. Reviewers repeatedly praise the plate for its grip and stability during quick cuts. The main drawbacks are a snug, narrow fit and mixed comfort reports.
Released in 2020 and listed as NEW NIKE VAPOR EDGE PRO 360 for the 2021 season; MSRP was 120.
The upper is a flexible mesh with thin support cables that wrap the foot and a low-profile lacing setup that sits under a small cover; the stated fit is true to size with a performance-oriented, snug feel.
The cleat uses a full-foot internal chassis, a TPU plate with wide stud placement and a mixed pattern of bladed and cone-shaped studs, intended for football fields including firm grass and synthetic turf. Weight is 320 g per shoe.
The Vapor Edge Pro 360 is aimed at low-cut, speed-focused skill players: wide receivers, cornerbacks, running backs and safeties. These players who prioritize acceleration, quick cuts and strong traction on firm grass or synthetic turf will find it suits those needs. Its 320 g weight, flexible mesh upper and internal TPU plate support rapid directional changes, and reviewers report secure lockdown for these roles.
Players who need a roomier toe box or substantial ankle reinforcement, including many linebackers, tight ends and most offensive or defensive linemen, should choose a mid- or high-cut, wider model instead. Also, players with wide feet or those who need thick cushioning for long sessions should try these on or consider alternatives before buying.
Reviewers describe the Vapor Edge Pro 360 as a light, speed-focused cleat with several outlets calling it lightweight or saying it 'feels like a sock.' A few reviewers gave weight scores closer to the category average. The catalog weight is 320 g per shoe, which sits mid-pack for skill cleats and supports the intended acceleration-focused use.
In practice, the cleat's light construction helps with quick acceleration and reduces perceived bulk on long plays. Some evaluators found the weight not class-leading light, so expectations should be moderated.
Fit is consistently described as snug and performance-oriented. Several reviewers say the cleat runs true to size for most feet but leans narrow, and others call the upper very thin and sock-like.
The close fit helps with responsiveness and lockdown. The cleat will feel tight for players with wider feet or those who prefer extra toe-room. Consider sizing up if you have broad forefeet.

Traction is the cleat's standout trait across reviews. The TPU internal chassis and wide stud placement are repeatedly credited with giving reliable bite and stability for sharp cuts on both turf and grass.
Multiple outlets rated the plate very highly. For example, Footballrs. called it an editor favorite for traction, which shows this plate design supports explosive lateral movement and quick acceleration in game conditions.
hands down this is my favorite traction plate on the market. Footballrs.
Reviewer comments on durability are generally positive for a synthetic, speed cleat. They noted improved stitching and thicker overlays compared with prior Vapor models, and outlets expected the materials to hold up through a season of regular play.
Reviewers also said normal wear in high-stress areas is likely over time, so durability is solid but not immune to heavy, repeated use.
Comfort scores are mixed. Some reviewers praise the insole and heel padding and call the fit comfortable for game-length use. Others worry about heat and describe the thin upper as less plush.
Practically, the cleat offers an internal environment many players will find adequately comfortable for matches. Players who prioritize roomy cushioning or cooler ventilation reported reservations.
The thin support cables and low-profile lacing cover are reported to provide secure lockdown without obvious pressure points. Several reviewers say the foot feels held in place when cutting and accelerating.
Some users found the lacing fiddly to adjust, but the overall consensus is that the system stabilizes the foot for performance movements.
lacing system provides solid lockdown without creating pressure points.. Cleats Report
Support impressions vary for the collar and heel. Several reviewers note a firm heel counter and improved ankle support. At least one reviewer called the collar flimsy.
The practical takeaway is moderate support appropriate for a speed cleat. The heel and internal chassis give stability for cuts, but players who need maximal inside-foot or ankle reinforcement should consider higher-cut, reinforced models.
At an MSRP of 120, multiple reviewers consider the Vapor Edge Pro 360 a solid value for players prioritizing traction and speed-focused performance, citing the combination of technologies and materials relative to price.
Value judgments assume the buyer cares most about the cleat's primary strengths. Those who need extra width or plush cushioning may not find the same value.
They are intended to run true to size for most players, but several reviewers describe a narrow, snug profile so players with wider feet may prefer sizing up or a wider model.
The TPU full-foot internal plate uses a mixed bladed and cone-shaped stud layout and is described by reviewers as providing strong bite on both firm grass and synthetic turf. The plate is molded into the cleat rather than detachable.
Reviewers rate the cleat as comparatively light for its class at 320 g per shoe, with several outlets calling it 'lightweight' or 'feels like a sock,' though a couple of reviewers gave middling weight scores reflecting minor variance in perceived lightness.
Durability reports are generally positive for a synthetic, speed-oriented cleat: reviewers noted improved stitching and robust materials with some expectation of normal wear in high-stress zones over a season.
They are aimed at speed-oriented skill positions: wide receivers, cornerbacks, running backs and safeties benefit most from the cleat's weight and traction profile. Players needing maximum ankle or inside-foot support, such as offensive and defensive linemen, should look for higher-cut, reinforced models.
Bottom line, A low-cut, speed-focused skill cleat that delivers very strong traction for quick cuts on grass and turf, but its snug, narrow fit and mixed comfort mean players with wider feet or those wanting plush cushioning should look elsewhere.
