The Nike Mercurial Vapor Superfly soccer cleat are the perfect soccer cleat of innovative technology and synthetic materials, engineered for a lightweight speed and performance soccer cleat.
The upper of the Superfly is made from a single skin teijin material, which is not only lightweight but is thin to give great ball feel and control. Strength and a supported fit come from the Flywire technology, with threads wrapping around the foot and acting like cables on a suspension bridge.
The outsole of the Nike Superfly soccer cleat is a combination of carbon-fibre and composite materials. Which deliver an unrivalled strong and lightweight sole-plate, with studs configured to increase traction, speed and movement.
With all this innovative technology packed into a soccer cleat weighing a mere 185g, it is no wonder a host of players including Cristiano Ronaldo, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Luis Fabiano and Franck Ribery are all clambering for a pair of Nike Vapor Superfly soccer cleat.

Ultimately designed for speed, the Nike Mercurial Vapor V soccer cleat have a sleek aerodynamic design and are lightweight at just 230g. Which becomes noticeable once you try them on, as you really do have to remind yourself you are wearing a pair of soccer cleat!
A popular feature of the Nike Mercurial Vapor IV soccer cleat was the lace cover, which has been retained for the Vapor V. This provides a clean and improved striking area, which the likes of Theo Walcott, Franck Ribery and Didier Drogba have been taking full advantage for excellent boot-to-ball contact.
Many Mercurial players have had issues with the comfort and fit of the previous generation Vapor IV, and it seems Nike have listened and addressed these issues with the Vapor V. The heel counter is solid and supportive however the "pods" that sat inside the Vapor IV are now removed to address the comfort issue.
