The Nike Zoom Mercurial XI Flyknit looks to compete with the top lifestyle models off the court…or in this case, the pitch.
Arriving in this ‘University Red’ colorway the Nike Zoom Mercurial XI has a new school/old school flavor to it. The sock collar design is definitely with the times but the molded midsole and outsole design look like they’re straight from the late 90’s/early 2000’s.
Sneaker Politics and Nike have these available now for $200 if you’re interested.
interesting seems outsole is the bottom loaded and actual zoom air units..
I don’t like the shoe overall, but the outsole or cushion does intrigue me.
That outsole looks like it’s from the Zoom Spiridon, which was probably one of the worst implementation of Zoom Air in the 90s… even worst than some of today’s Zoom Air setups.
