Next-Gen Nike Mercurial Superfly 8 & Vapor 14 'Dragonfly' Boots Revealed
Update: Two players have been chosen by Nike to debut the next-gen Nike Mercurial 2021 football boots - Cristiano Ronaldo from Juventus and Ada Hegerberg from Olympique Lyon. In 2018 she was the first-ever recipient of the Ballon d'Or Féminin.
Just a day after teasing their release on Instagram, Nike just unveiled the brand-new Mercurial Superfly 8 and Vapor 14 boots, in the form of the limited-edition 'Dragonfly' edition.
The boots were initially leaked through EA Sports' most recent update for FIFA 21 on PC. They will be available from January 25 (Nike members) / February 1 (everywhere else).
In addition to the Dragonfly Nike Mercurial Superfly and Vapor boots, Nike will release two more colorways for the next-gen Mercurial cleats in the coming weeks - red and black.
