Continuing the storied history of the boot that transformed the industry, the newest Mercurial Superfly is born from four years of R&D in the Nike Sport Research Lab.  Driven by insights from the world¡¯s fastest athletes, the Superfly is created to revolutionize speed.

Continuing the storied history of the boot that transformed the industry, Nike launches the new generation of the Mercurial to match the speed of today¡¯s game.  

First unveiled in 1998, the original Mercurial was a radical and unprecedented piece of design that established Nike as the leader in football boot innovation. With the new Mercurial Superfly, Nike has created not just another cutting-edge boot but a leap forward for on-pitch speed.

The Mercurial Superfly¡¯s revolutionary design is driven through Nike¡¯s most advanced technology: Nike Flyknit. A new three-knit weave puts less material between the foot and the ball to enhance players¡¯ touch ¨C a vital element when operating at high speeds.

The high-top Dynamic Fit Collar, which radically transforms the Mercurial silhouette, is designed to create a better fit and a heightened sensation of the boot as an extension of the foot.

Other vital breakthrough additions include Superfly¡¯s Brio cables, which are knitted directly into the upper and locked into the outsole. By connecting this tendon-like support to the heel, the Superfly acts like a slingshot that helps propel the player forward.  In addition, a new, more-flexible full-length carbon plate helps players to more efficiently transmit power through the ground. Added studs at the boot¡¯s heel offer stability, and extra traction has been placed at the toe to give players more grip and propulsion during the critical final 10 percent of their stride.
