The launch of the Mercurial 360 has seen the Superfly and Vapor sit closer than ever before. The Flyknit upper that harnesses both silhouettes ensures that it comes down to a choice of collar, or no collar. And in the new "Black/Total Orange" colourway, you can't make a wrong choice.
Previous mid-collared Superfly boots played a leading role in the Swoosh show, with the Vapor providing the synthetic understudy. But, the Mercurial 360 has levelled up the playing field offering players a Vapor with all the Flyknit benefits of the Superfly, without having to accommodate a Dynamic Fit Collar. The only tech difference now being that mid-collar. Simple.
Whereas some players have embraced the Dynamic Fit Collar, other players are still getting used to the alternative shape. Nike have cut down the collar to create a less intimidating design that beautifully caresses the foot, but the Swoosh still understand that the lo-cut design will be equally as popular with players.
As for the colourway, the latest "Black/Total Orange" drop offers players a low-key vibe in comparison to the bold launch edition being worn by Nike's contracted players. You liked the Orange launch colourway, didn't you? But these are the ones you were waiting for...
