New Nike Mercurial Air Zoom Cosmic Speed

Nike has recently dropped a real bombshell and we are here to go over this special edition's on-the-pitch details.

This new silo arrives with a bang, a new spectacular model that has caught our attention lately. Let's take a look at those design details that make this boot something quite special, even at first sight.

The underlying idea behing this boot is to represent Mercurial's spirit just like we have previously seen in other special editions from the brand, hence why it reminds us of several other beloved, unique Nike boots.

A special detail that mixes aesthetic and technology (and that we have been seeing for quite a few years) is the ever-present chrome hue, now visible on the chassis instead of just the outsole. It's our first time seeing this visual effect on a football boot and it looks absolutely beautiful. The boot changes colour depending on the lighting, thus allowing us to catch a glimpse of different patterns that, at first glance, seem hidden. A real gem, truly.

Technically speaking, this boot is similar to other colourways we have seen and reviewed before. The new, softer Gripknit chassis feels delightful to the touch, and the recently redesigned Airzoom insole improves traction when coming into contact with the pitch.

Now, when it comes to visuals, the outsole is incredibly stunning. It stands out when you're running and it will surely be the last thing your opponents see when you zoom past them wearing your Mercurial Cosmic Speed football boots.

 


 

And this is it for our Cosmic Speed Nike Mercurial review - a visual pleasure that we are certain will fly off the Futbolemotion shelves as soon as they are available. If you want them, as expected, you will have to be quick!
