Nike Mercurial Superfly 10 Elite FG X Sam Kerr

Strike without warning in Nike Air Zoom Mercurial Superfly 10 Elite x Kerr FG football boots in Pale Ivory/Black. Styled on the deadly threats of the Outback, these Sam Kerr Player Edition boots are built for attack. Personal mantras depict the attitude that’s made her the world’s most dangerous striker, while a line graphic at the toe pays tribute to another Aussie speedster, whose historic triumph on home soil inspired Sam as a youth.

Fine-tuned for responsiveness, the next-gen Merc features a cascading wave of traction at the forefoot, which engages more of the Zoom Air unit when your foot meets the ground to generate increased energy return.

It’s simple but effective: spreading out the contact area maximises the effect of Zoom Air and keeps you faster for longer. Plenty of grip too – the biggest of the wave studs is the same height as Nike’s traditional middle studs, and you’ve got the evolved chevron and blade studs working in tandem for quick directional changes.

Then there’s the lightweight, minimalist upper, which combines multiple knit technologies in a design that brings you closer to the ball than ever before. It’s the thinnest Merc upper to date, made up of just three layers. Flyknit provides the comfort, Atomknit the support, and Gripknit – that’s right, the Merc has Gripknit now – the control.

If you’re not familiar with Gripknit, it’s a sticky, pliable, weather-resistant yarn that enhances boot-to-ball connection and ensures your touch stays consistent in any situation. When you’re dribbling at high speed, it helps you manipulate the ball with superior accuracy to evade opponents – ideal for Mercurial players.
