Mercurial Superfly!
![]() Walao,this boots damn nice Mercurial Vapor Superfly The Vapor Superfly was originally due for release in Spring 2009, like the Vapor V. However, following our article “Is the Superfly Defective?” Nike have delayed the launch of the Superfly, see the Nike response “Nike Responds to Superfly Problem“. There is still no official retail release date for the Superfly, although we think it is likely to coincide with the beginning of the 2009/10 season. The Orange colourway that many of the professional’s are sporting right now will not be released. The incorporated Flywire technology is based on a sprint spike concept which caused huge interest when it was introduced in Beijing for the 2008 Olympic Games. Already creating quite a buzz in the industry with its revolutionary lightweight construction, the Flywire design is said to be inspired by the cables from a suspension bridge. It basically makes use of a strong Vectran thread arranged in a fan-shaped pattern at anchor points around the shoe. At the time of the track shoe launch, creator Jay Meschter said:
From that description, it’s not hard to see why Nike football boot designers have been keen to integrate the new technology in their line of work. As for their on pitch debut, Cristiano Ronaldo used them in Manchester United’s Uefa Champions League second leg match against Inter Milan at Old Trafford on 11th March. He was up against Zlatan Ibrahimovic who also debuted the football boot. The Mercurial Superfly incorporates Nike Flywire, a strong, light fibre inspired by the high tensile cables that hold together suspension bridges. The flywire technology is used in the medial section of the boot like the Vapor V. Unlike the Vapor V, the Superfly also uses flywire in the encased heel. The outsole features some differences to the Vapor V also. For instance the drilled through lightweight studs, a performance stud on the front of the outsole and theoutole is made from carbon. Nike Mercurial Vapor Superfly Vital Statistics Weight: 185g Cost: £224.99 Colourway: Launching with Max Orange / Abyss / Silver Players: Cristiano Ronaldo, Didier Drogba, Franck Ribery, Theo Walcott, Dani Alves, Andrey Arshavin. |
