The Mercurial Vapor Superfly redefines how footwear is made
Earlier this year Nike, in conjunction with Cristiano Ronaldo, the 2008 FIFA World Player of the Year, launched the Mercurial Vapor Superfly at Old Trafford in Manchester, England. The much-anticipated Superfly, Nike’s lightest and fastest boot/cleat to date, will soon be available at selected retailer locations.
The boot is a paper-thin and wired for speed, with support coming from threads. The Mercurial Vapor Superfly – an industry-defining boot, incorporates Nike Flywire technology and redefines how footwear is made. In a game that’s being played faster and faster every season, speed is imperative. Players need to be faster with the ball. They need to accelerate, react and change the game quicker than the opposition.
Nike Flywire technology utilizes high-strength threads that act like cables on a suspension bridge, delivering engineered support precisely where it’s needed. This revolutionary technology transforms how footwear is engineered by reducing the amount of material required for the upper of a shoe to the bare minimum.
The strength of Nike Flywire technology is created through optimal placement of threads providing support where players need it most, coupled with highly tuned composite upper package that locks the threads in place, allowing the upper package to adapt to the motion of the foot.
The composite upper package uses an ultra-thin teijin skin to cover the top of the foot, and together with the Flywire threads, locks the foot in place. The Mercurial Vapor Superfly also incorporates a revolutionary new lightweight traction cleats and a carbon fiber chassis that shave precious grams from the boot, ensuring the player remains quicker than ever without compromising integrity or traction.
