Traction is provided by precisely placed studs in the forefoot and heel. Nike’s designers got their inspiration from agile cheetahs and focused on traction at speed, leading to the minimalist approach they have affectionately referred to as the cheetah paw. It’s been 20 years of Mercurial and the guys at Nike have given the latest Mercurial a clean aesthetic with a small forefoot Swoosh and a bold ?M? on the heel.

Flyknit still comprise the tongue and collar for the Superfly; allows the boot to extend to the sides to accommodate more width, still not a true wide boot. What sets them apart? Similar technologies to Elite models with variations in materials and construction.

The plush feel of the Mercurial 360 can also be attributed to further advancements in Nike’s All Conditions Control (ACC) technology. Previously, ACC was applied on top of the finished Flyknit product, creating a thin layer. Now, ACC is embedded into the yarns prior to knitting, eliminating the additional skin without compromising the performance benefit. The result is a matte finish on a texturized upper that is softer to the touch but can still battle the elements. On the Nike Zoom Mercurial Superfly 9 FG, tri-star studs provide multidirectional traction every time you plant, cut, or push off—whether the turf is wet and slippery or dry and hard. Additionally, the heel studs provide crucial stability during abrupt braking, while the toe-off center studs give you the traction you need for explosive starts. While still not suitable for wide-feet players, midfoot is now less snug (makes the boot more forgiving but slowly drifts the Mercurial away from its strapped-in, tight-fitting identity) Tri-star studs replace chevrons to make the aggressive traction more multidirectional; Zoom airbag directly housed within the outsole, eliminates extra underfoot layers and brings the foot closer to the ground Innovation: Nike Flyknit “speed rib” 3D texture & single-layer anatomical sole plate chassis. Complements of a vacuum forming process to hollow out the soleplate & virtual Finite Element Analysis (FEA) testing for data-informed stud shaping, positioning, & texture mapping
