Next-Gen Nike Mercurial Superfly VII Debut Boots Revealed
Jul 6, 2019, by Pat
Nike just officially revealed the highly anticipated Mercurial Superfly 7 boots. Breaking the previous two-year cycle, the Nike Mercurial Superfly VII cleats are being launched only a little over a year after the old generation.
The Nike Mercurial Superfly 7 and Vapor 12 Elite soccer boots will be available to buy from tomorrow, July 7th.
Nike Mercurial Superfly 7 - Blue Hero / White / Obsidian
This is the 'New Lights' Nike Mercurial Superfly VII.
The next-gen Nike Mercurial Superfly 7 debut boots are predominantly 'blue hero' with white brandings.
Brandings - there are lots of them all across the upper of the two new Nike Mercurial boots. There's a large Swoosh on the outside, as well as a cropped 'Mercurial' writing, another small Swoosh towards the heel. On the inside is a large 'Just Do It' print, together with another Swoosh and a 'Merc' branding above it. Another Swoosh sits on the toebox.
Tech-wise, the updates from the previous generation to the Nike Mercurial Superfly 7 are less extensive than what we're used to.
The upper of the Nike Mercurial Superfly VII is 'more open' than that of its predecessor, to make it softer and more comfortable. 'High tenacity yarns' of Flyknit were then integrated into the upper structure in order to prevent it from overstretching and supply the necessary level of lockdown.
Inspired by cycling shoes, the Aerotrak sole plate of the Nike Mercurial Superfly 7 boots has also seen some small changes made to it from last year. According to Nike, together with the updated internal body, it "delivers more snap" than before.
All in all, the Nike Mercurial Superfly 7 looks like a solid update. Made in Italy, the new Nike Mercurial Superfly and Vapor boots weigh in at less than 200 gram, even less than before.
Nike Mercurial Superfly VII - Features
- Low-profile Dynamic Fit collar
- Microtexturized Flyknit upper with NikeSkin overlay
- ACC (All Conditions Control)
- Podular sole plate system with an internal chassis
- Swoosh design on the toe has a matte finish to help provide traction on the ball
- Price: USD 300 (EUR 290, GBP 250)
- Release date: 7 July 2019

As two of the primary headline athletes for New Balance's flagship speed silo, their synchronized switch away from standard on-pitch colorways to a whiteout look points toward an upcoming limited-edition pack or special release from the American brand in the near future.

The shirt completes the club's "Klubhus Kollektionen" (Clubhouse Collection) for the 26-27 season, following the release of the home and away kits earlier this summer.

A classic white polo collar and matching white sleeve cuffs add a retro touch, enhanced by subtle red accents under the collar placket.

Finishing off the bespoke look, the club's traditional red "AAB af 1885" pennant flag is embroidered on the upper back below the neckline.
