The new Nike Mercurial Superfly Camo football boots introduce a bold stealth look for the Nike Mercurial, set to be available to buy from tomorrow, April 7, 2016.

Whereas the similarly styled camouflage Nike Hypervenom Phantom II soccer cleats were worn by England and Leicester City star Jamie Vardy last week, it's not yet clear whether the spectacular Nike Mercurial Superfly IV Camo boots will receive high-profile on-pitch player support.

This image shows the stunning special-edition Nike Mercurial Superfly camouflage cleats, officially dubbed 'Alligator & Mahogany'.

Combining the popular silhouette of the cutting-edge Nike Mercurial Superfly soccer cleats with a totally new camouflage print on the upper, the new Nike Mercurial Superfly IV special-edition boots are sure to stand out on the pitch.

The camouflage print is green and brown, while all brandings, the heightened collar and the sole plate are black. A subtle reflective finish is applied to the large Swoosh on the lateral front of the new camouflage Nike Mercurial Superfly cleats.

The technical specifications under the hood of the all-new camouflage upper, however, are the same we've grown to love in the Mercurial Superfly IV over the past two years. The Nike Mercurial Superfly Camo boot combines a high-collar concept with Flywire strings in the knitted Flyknit upper for ultimate lockdown and ball control.

The stunning Nike Mercurial Superfly camouflage soccer boots are available to buy from April 7, 2016, through the Nike Football app, with other retailers following on April 12. Only available in FG (firm ground) configuration, the Nike Mercurial Superfly SE 2016 boots retail at a slightly higher price than regular colorway releases, $300.
