SUPER FLY Flying Line Technology

The streamlined upper uses breakthrough flying line technology to achieve a lightweight, tough and solid effect. The fine-line layout of exquisite craftsmanship brings a flexible foot feel and firmly wraps the feet, thereby achieving a more comfortable wearing effect.

IKE brings us a new concept of the Assassin Superfly football boots, which is definitely great news for football lovers (remember the Hyperdunk craze last year?), but for football we Our knowledge of shoes is really limited, so let’s let Nike introduce them to us personally.

Flying threads weave a speed revolution

Introduction to "Assassin Superfly"

Imagine a pair of football boots that are as thin as paper and supported only by thin threads. This is "Murder Superfly" - an industry-leading football boot that reinterprets the definition of shoemaking with advanced Nike Flywire technology.

The high-strength thin wires used in Nike Flying Wire technology are like the steel cables of a suspension bridge. The positions of the thin wires are precisely designed at the parts of the foot that need support. This revolutionary technology completely subverts shoemaking technology, greatly reducing the materials required for the upper, while not losing the excellent firmness, integrity and support of the shoe body.

Nike Flying Line technology provides support for the parts where players need it most by optimizing the layout of thin lines, and then combines it with carefully designed upper synthetic components to firmly lock the thin lines. This allows the upper to fully match foot movements and maximize the power of Nike's flying line technology. The upper synthetic components use Teijin ultra-thin surface material to cover the instep, while strong fibers with flying wire technology secure the foot.

The "Assassin Superfly" also uses revolutionary new lightweight traction spikes and carbon fiber soles to further reduce the weight of the shoe body. While helping players increase their speed, it still maintains the excellent performance of the boots. Integrity and grip.

Soccer boots combine the highest quality materials and the most advanced technology, incorporating the finest craftsmanship and unparalleled passion. This handcrafted classic boot exemplifies Nike's relentless pursuit of lightweight, high-performance products.

The "Murder Superfly" is the lightest and fastest Nike boot ever. As the pace of the season gets faster and faster, speed has become essential. Players have to be faster with the ball, they have to accelerate, react, and turn the game around faster than their opponents.

Technical Features:

· Carefully crafted Flywire fibers are designed to meet the requirements of the fastest players, providing optimal support precisely where the foot needs it most

· Five ultra-thin layers of the synthetic upper incorporate Flywire fibers to create a fine shell that works in harmony with the movement of the foot.

· Teijin synthetic outer surface is only 300 microns thick for optimal fit and comfort

· Flywire technology, synthetic upper and Teijin outer layer The combination constitutes Nike's thinnest upper to date, ensuring the perfect integration from foot to boot, and from boot to ball.

· The lightweight traction spikes adopt a denser internal structure, which completely eliminates the excess weight in the center of the spikes while ensuring the necessary integrity. These direct-injection-molded, dual-density cast studs are ultra-lightweight and ultra-strong to provide players with optimal traction.

· The 7-layer carbon synthetic outsole provides maximum elasticity, strength and flexibility while reducing the weight of the shoe body.

· Minimalist heel lining enhances the integrity of the heel, especially suitable for explosive players.

· Seamless integral heel padding provides a comfortable fit

· Nike's lightest football boots ever, weighing only 185 grams

The history of the development of Nike's Flying Line technology

Seven years ago, Jay Meschter, the founder of Flying Line technology and the creative director of "Nike Innovation Kitchen", only had one on his hands. The shoe last, which is used as a shoe mold, is covered with pins and thin wires. The locations of the pins and thin wires are exactly the key points where the foot needs support.

The model looks like string art from the 1970s, but it breeds uncharted territory of possibility. It is this simple product concept that holds the potential to revolutionize the way shoes are made.

Carefully crafted fibers are arranged in specific areas to form the skeleton, or support, of the sneaker to keep the foot stable in place. This innovative way of adding more elements within a sneaker for more support subverts the original concept of making sneakers. "Innovation Kitchen" fully understood the development potential of new products, but lacked an easy and cost-effective way to inject innovative ideas into actual products. The project was shelved until Jay and his design team finally discovered the machinery and process to make the technology a reality.

A few years later, Jay found the answer on an ordinary embroidery machine in the Nike sample room: embroidery can be used to create flying threads. In theory, the embroidery machine's needle can move and lift in all directions to create the long stitches required by the new technology, but in practice it's not that simple. The embroidery machine had to be disassembled and reconfigured to achieve the designs Jay wanted.

Through stitching (rather than using large jump stitches) technology is most effectively used for side decoration. The long stitching means the upper structure is made entirely of specially crafted fiber threads. Flying stitches drastically reduced the weight of sneakers, spelling the end of the idea of ??using multiple layers of fabric to provide support, which would add weight and reduce elasticity.

In the early stages of this process, the design team also worked with biomechanics experts from the "Nike Sports Research Laboratory (NSRL)" to glue special material tape to the designer's feet. Jeff Pisciotta, a researcher at the Nike Sports Research Lab, was fascinated by the idea of ??facilitating foot movement by creating additional ligaments that guide joints in the correct direction. “We tape the foot from the base to the heel to provide stability on the side of the foot,” he explains. “With this method and the help of some anatomical principles, we can place these fiber lines in the exact places. ”

The precise distribution of the flying threads means that the upper is like a second skin, which also makes the fabric’s function only to prevent stones and mud from entering.

Merchert pointed out that "the unique thing about the flying line is that it makes people forget that the shoe even exists, and only makes people feel that the sole is tightly attached to the foot." This means that Nike is moving towards Bill. Bowman's goal is one step closer. Bowman once said when he was a coach, "The ideal running shoe should be like a nail that goes through the foot." Although today's flying cable has not reached this state, it has already made the bottom of the shoe and the feet fit together almost perfectly.
