With arguably the greatest player in the world on their books, Nike have rewarded Cristiano Ronaldo with another bespoke pair of special edition boots, keeping up the ‘Safari’ moniker, but completely altering the design from the previous incarnation of the boots.
Nike asked the world’s deadliest player to put his stamp on the world’s most explosive boot. He said yes. Now experience the outstanding CR7 Mercurial yourself. A boot that embodies Ronaldo’s two sides: total athlete on the pitch, fashion icon off it.
In his recent online chat with Andy Caine, designer of the Nike Mercurial Vapor Superfly, he said that the boots are very representative of his playing style as well, direct and straight when he needs to and flashy and obnoxious at other times.
Every feature of Ronaldo’s special edition CR7 Mercurial Superfly is designed to his exact specifications. Adaptive stud technology delivers optimum traction, perfect for ultra-quick bursts and stopping at top speed. Its microfiber upper adjusts to the shape of your foot so you stay light on your feet throughout the game.
And a vibrant pink, blue and grey colourway keeps you in the spotlight. Pre-order your CR7 Mercurial Superflys on November 18.
Performance innovation for the CR Mercurial Vapor SuperFly III also features a unique adaptive traction system where designers incorporated adaptive studs in the forefoot that can extend and retract by up to 3mm, based on ground conditions and pressure exerted by the player. As a result, the boot delivers superb traction and responsiveness to ensure one of the fastest players in the world capitalizes on the tightest of scoring opportunities.
Directionally positioned blades maximize cutting and allow for quick changes of direction, while secondary toe traction provides added toe-off power for those first critical steps. Collectively, these design details allow greater speed and quickness in all directions. Nike Flywire technology incorporated into the boot’s streamlined upper provides a lightweight, strong and more dynamic fit.
The CR7 Mercurial Vapor Superfly III gives footballers exclusive access to training insights from top players and coaches through Nike Football+. Each pair of boots comes with a unique user code to unlock insider tips and Master Speed training content.
