Nike Mercurial 1998 OG Black White R9 SG
Excellent used condition - upper in excellent condition, sole plate still in very good condition.
The Upper:
- Throwing it back to 1998, Nike released the revolutionary KNG-100 Upper
- The lightest and most durable premium leather technology at the time, making the Mercurial the lightest boots ever made
- A stitching pattern throughout the entire upper made these boots super sleek and lightweight
The Sole Plate:
- A revolutionary plastic soleplate was used with super light materials, much lighter than anything on the market
- They featured a plastic spine that ran through the middle of the boots for extra support and structure
- Injected Aluminum studs were used, much different than the traditional screw in circular plastic studs
Notes and Comments:
- The ultimate boots for every collector. The first ever Mercurial produced in 1998, a try pioneer for speed boots
- A super rare piece of history. Using superior materials and technology at the time
- Coming up on 25 years in 2023, this boot will continue to rise in rarity and will be even more difficult to come across
