Nike Updates Mercurial Dream Speed With Football-Inspired Graphics

Setting up the silhouette for the fastest players of the game, Nike has unveiled the latest version of its Mercurial Dream Speed football liner. The boot features a number of wave patterns across the upper – that relate to speed – while other information is subtle nodes of the sport.

The pointed pattern on the boot is a clue to the formation of winning teams, while a waved grid pattern recalls the waving impact that the net has when a goal is reached. The transparent plate and the fluorescent coating around the Swoosh itself are more characteristics. Finally, the boot is completed by Safari print, which is 10 years after the pattern on a football shot was first used.

Some of the fastest players of the game, such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Kylian Mbappé and Sam Kerr, will wear the Nike Mercurial Dream Speed 3 on the pitch. Ronaldo revealed the new boots.

These boots have everything to do with chasing and fulfilling your goals. I have one piece of advice to think about when you wear these boots, to work hard, think big and to realise and fulfill your dreams.- Ronaldo

The boot is available now from the Nike web store.
