Once upon a time, the Mercurial Superfly represented the latest of what was technologically possible in a pair of football boots. Today, the Superfly is just just like the Vapor, but with a collar...
In today's video we take a closer look at the new Nike mercurial Superfly 8 Elite, the latest Mercurial generation that has me questioning whether or not nike is getting lazy. Spoiler alert, they're great boots, and I talk about why that is, but I can't help but be a little disappointed with the direction Nike is going in. I explain why and discuss exactly what's new. Is this the Superfly that you were hoping for?

At least it still has the ankle support and acc.
superfly 4 is always gonna be my favourite mercurial
And vapor 10
No one can change my mind on that
@@eekahuitsi1880 yea for sure, that’s my current boot that I’m wearing
Alexis Sanchez in Superfly 4s was deadly
mine is flyknit ultra easily
If Nike is reading this... bring back Teijin synthetic. For nostalgia purposes
Jesus loves you repent before its too late
It was amazing
@@yurr1466 Amen
Imagine if they remade Vapor III.
@@yurr1466 cute dog
The collar on this one looks cheap to me, like a takedown model. I’ve thought that since the superfly 6. The older collars on the Obra 1 and 2 and the superfly 4 and 5 were really nice quality.
It style is cheap
the obras had the best collar ever, it felt so good on feet and it looked sick.
I think the superfly 9’s collar should go up to the knee for knee support next year
I agree.
could use it after I tore my ACL this season. Ankle support helped me to never tore my ankle ligaments. would be very useful
Heck don’t stop there! Whole body suit that comes from the boot. Full body support!
a collar provides no support at all, it’s for looks
I’m fairness, at least the phantom get makes more sense now since it’s the only flyknit model
Gt*
Doesn’t the tiempo have a flyknit tounge
@@Yvngyvng so does this, doesn’t make them a fly knit model
I miss the footage of you actually lacing up (with SR4U Replacement laces ofc) and putting the boots on. Was actually quite helpful and enjoyable to watch
2:16 shows class and professionalism, most youtubers/reviewers will let you watch the entire video regardless as opposed to telling you exactly where to find the start of the actual football boot review. Claw Josh, class.....oh ,one more thing, your videos are always clean and vocals sharp 📌
I love this colourway, but I recently bought a pair of Mercurial Superfly Pro DF FG Junior Football Boots and they are so badly fitted. They are way too loose, and I got the size I got in a previous iteration of the Superfly. The collar is no longer fitted, it's loose and the whole boot is too big. Lazy is right.
They just need to kill of the superfly for a couple of years until they find or make a new upper/technology that makes it significantly different from the vapor.
Or they should bring back the Teijin Synthetic for the Vapour.
@@AN-filmandmusic honestly they should just take the exact template of the vapor 10 and use that. They just need to update the sole plate and graphics then it’s good lol.
I really like how they look like superfly 5s 🤩
Hey, love all your content, been watching your videos for a long time. Would love to see you do the review on feet however with touches on the ball too. That would be awesome
Like Josh said, Nike should make a thin synthetic vapour and a knitted superfly. They should make two different boots which will give customers two different sensations whilst playing.
Nike if you're reading this bring back the vapor 10 swoosh
But just look at them. . . . So different and daring with that transparent upper! They look amazing!
the ankle collar does not provide any kind of ankle stability or support, but I do find that it helps greatly in the lockdown feeling of the boot. my heel doesn't slide nearly as much in Superflys as it does in Vapors, my foot feels very secure in the Superflys and that definitely has to do with the ankle collar
I would like to see a low cut synthetic vapor and a low cut knitted superfly. They both should have flywire cables and the Superfly's soleplate should be a mix of glass fiber and carbon fiber with a new stud pattern. The superfly should be lighter but both should weigh from 150 to 175 grams in a size 9 us. The superlfy's knitted upper should have either a vapor 9's or a hypervenom phantom's texture on it's knitted upper. They should abandon the mid-cut design all together and make it wrap around your foot like a flyknit ultra.
Can we all take a moment to notice how good Josh is at matching the Pure Grip socks with the boots he is showing🔥🔥🔥
1. That spine - all it does is trap a lot of mud which is a pain to clean out
2. I took James very seriously regarding the the Superfly vs Vapor differentiation. So now I have the Superfly 7 and the Vapor 14 which is best of both worlds! (though the only reason I had picked up the superfly 7 over the vapor 13 in the first place was that I actually found a higher discount, and thus lower final price) on the Superflies. The collar does nothing and makes it more difficult to put on)
Here’s an idea what if to make them different they make one of them have a fly knit upper like the vapor 13/superfly 7. That way they have an actual difference
Why did you take out the part when your putting on the boots I really liked that part can you bring it back and especially for the predator freak + review pls
Can you please review the soft ground pair as I want to know what effect the SG plate had on the boot and is there still the anitomical sole plate
Honestly I cannot bring myself to move past the Superfly VI/ Vapor XII. I feel like they had the perfect combination of Flexibility/Grip/Comfort. The newer ones make more sense in the fact the Vapor is originally about speed and lockdown but the Superfly VI seemed like a perfected Hypervenom and I LOVE THAT!
Superfly is way better for speed than the vapors
How? The superflys weigh more because the collar
This was a huge chance to bring FlyPrint into the spotlight. Maybe it wasn’t ready for primetime or there was something else. But ever since the Air Zoom Mercurial was teased I’ve been dying to see FlyPrint on a Nike boot. The Superfly used to mean something in the Mercurial line. It was something that was over the top and cool. Now its just a flyknit collar. The Vapor Superfly 1 is still the coolest boot ever in my opinion despite it’s flaws. My favorite Mercurial is the Vapor 8 for what it’s worth. Loved the super thin and super soft teijin upper, deep lacing system, the narrow cut, with the glass-fiber sole plate. They looked and felt great. Well maybe except when you got stepped on. My least favorite was the Superfly 5, had major issues with the fit in the heel in that boot. Felt too shallow and the liner was pretty slick. Very underwhelming.
Love these videos! Do a Retro Review of the Adidas Predator X?
The Superfly’s just need carbon fiber soleplates or flywire adaptations
flywire wraps ur foot in a weird way, i dont like it
Carbon soleplates on the elites 👌
Carbon is amazing but fly wire sucks
could you add all the boots you review to the tier list at the end of the video. that would be very helpful
Nike seems to roll out boots with features they're testing for a future boot down the line. My thought is that the next superfly will have tenacity yarn 2.0 and next vapor will be vaporposite 2.0
I think Nike should implement what adidas did with the ghost series in terms of the toe box where it makes it easier to roll onto your toes
Josh I know you feel the mid-cut is gimmick though just a note; I have a super narrow foot and ankle. I’ve always had issues where by I roll over my ankle though the mid cut boots somehow have helped avoid this completely. It might just be because I am essentially wearing another elastic-type sock in addition to my soccer sock ? Maybe yes/ maybe no. It makes a great difference for me though. :)
Dear Nike please make the following :
1) Superfly 4 - upper but with vapor 13 laces
2) please add vapor 13 heel liner
3) add vapor 13 sole plate but make it the same size and shape as the superfly 4
Perfect boot !
Cleat**
Im gonna buy these bc the superfly was always the best boot for me. I dont realy like the colourway, so im gonna wait for others. And I had a Vapor model also and the sock is realy important for me. Im just feeling more in the boot
How good do u reckon the pro variation of the vapors would be 🤩
I agree. they should use different materials and make them different. If the only difference is the length of the collar then there really is no need for them to have different names. Try Superfly and Superfly+
James you should ask Nike about giving your Pure Grip Socks ACC
Since I’ve already posted a longer comment with the podcast, I’ll keep it short here.
I completely agree Joshimus. Nike’s issue isn’t solely with the mercurial line though, I think their overall strategy is a bit in the wind at the moment, and the people at Nike need to take a serious look at what’s going on. With the variety of technologies they have at hand, there’s no reason not to have a well-defined lineup of 4-5 boots, each with a distinct design identity.
If a nike employee is reading this. I would love to see the toe swoosh make a comeback
I think Nike were working on the next superfly (9) since the superfly 7 because they said that they were working on the 7s since some time so they just put the 8s just for some more time working on the 9s
Nothing beats the 2000 predators, the best design and comfort.
Not showing my age but do Rucanor and Asics still make football boots?
have my doubts on the upper, will buy the superfly 7 instead
also the roomier tow box is a no no for me
I been looking for over a month for an elite turf version for the superfly 7 😪 do also turf reviews if possible 👍🏻
I tell you what, I’m a football 🏈 kicker and these boots are my go to for kicking. The way it grips your foot feels like your kicking the ball barefoot. When worn down after awhile the boot really becomes a sock like boot. I will say that the only problem I have with them is that when worn down the insole becomes uncomfortable. In my experience my feet start to crap. But other than that the boot is a perfect kicking boot and I recommend them to any football 🏈 kickers out there. Go grab yourself a pair...
i miss the old superfly, they were just so simple
So what's better, the 7 or 8? I'm trying to find a new pair of cleats.
I just kind of wish the superfly and the vapor were different than just the collar. I think more options and a different variation would be nice.
What boot should i get in 2022 if i want a replica feel of hyper-venom phantom II? As i cant find that model anymore and need new cleats preferably nike with sock needed it to be wide like phantom 2
bruh superfly 8’s gave me blister first wear and i’ve never gotten blisters it’s crazy cause i’ve always used superflys all the way from the 5
just broke my fifth metatarsal in the left foot using these boots. Debating wether I should wear different ones when I return. Although they were custom and I just bought them 😭
Bring back vapor 10’s. Favorite boots ever
Is the the df collar the same height as the superfly 5 ?
the bag is super...fly. i see what ya did there jerome ;)
I have these shoes in a US 10 and they feel really good, but under the joint of my big toe it feels like the material is rolling under it making it feel a bit weird. If anyone knows how to fix this pls help me
Does someone know if they made a indoor version of these
Best soccer reviews I've seen 👌 👏
So should i get the superfly 7 instead of the superfly 8?
Josh can you please review some of NIVIA football cleats. It's an indian brand and is very famous within india. I know that they don't stand a chance in comparison with all the other top brands in terms of quality and technology but I think they do have some chances in value for money criteria as they are very very very cheap( 17 euros for top model and 6 euros for cheapest models, cheapest ones are like counterfeit ones but top models are good in my opinion) but do have structure unlike the counterfeit boots. I request you to review some of their boots or only one. If it's possible for you please review them.
If you just by the flynet one then you can just cut it and you have a vapor
I bought the new superflys FG and after playing my foot had some weird preasure points. Could that be because of the anathomical soleplate or that I am using FG boots on AG?
Stud pressure with FG boots on artificial grass sounds like the reason.
yeah the superfly should have been just an upgraded version of the last generation, they spent all that time perfecting the flyknit and they did that with the superfly 7, it seems an awful waste to then throw all that tech out, i personally would have been happy if they gave us the superfly 7 upper with the new sole plate
If vaporposite is the same as the Foamposite give it time to break-in and it will be very comfortable and 1 to 1 fit on your foot
It is absolutely nothing like Foamposite at all.
What’s the difference between the Puma 1.1 & Puma 1.2??
it will be safari superfly elite for ag pitches?
This is just a Vapor Elite DF, if there's no difference it's not a SuperFly to me
Yah true, the only difference between the superfly and the vapor is the sock
Tbh they couldve done this synthetic vapor 14 and kept the flyinit on the superfly like the previous gen and no one would’ve complained
Can Nike bring back the thick collar from the the superfly 5
Dear Nike...
Why you didn't continue with the Magista? The upper on those boots were super supportive, all you needed was to improve on the boot.
in january i will have my firist football training ever should i buy superfly 8 elite?
Will there be a pro version of these boots?
Never sprained an ankle in a DF collar Nike boot. So yeah...anecdotal proof if I’ve ever seen it.
Superfly 7 vs superfly 8 vs superfly 9 vid when the 9 comes out
Its a real shame you don't have a UK stockist for your pure grip socks 😕
can u use this boost if you wide feet
Can these be used for American football?
I hate that the soul separates after a bit of use
Please bring back the hypervenom phantoms 1
Still waiting for new Tiempos...
I just bought tiempos and now there might be a new one 🤦🏾♂️
@@Festus034 Yeah it should be coming very soon lmao.
Sergio Ramos 👌🏽🤣
@@Festus034 bought a tiempo legend 7 elite in the white and orange colorway months ago for cheap.. nothing wrong with it.. just use em
Last tiempos were tragic
i used to watch ur channel like 2 years ago
is the website safe order
is this shoes good for wide feet ?
Honestly, I don't get it why it is so hard to accept that vapor and superfly are almost the same shoe. The price tells itself that there isn't much difference. Change is just too hard for some people to accept...
I agree Josh
Please review
CHARLY PFX GIGNAC PLS
huge fan been following for almost 10 years.
mizuno morelia neo pro iii kl fg review ??
Im so confused why the superfly and the vapor are still the same boot
Superfly 8 was so bad. I bought a size down which was too tight and my usual size was too big. The upper was too rigid. Couldn't last 5 minutes on the pitch. A serious downgrade from 7.
Josh, 😆😂 @floppy collar 🤦🏾♂️😅
tbh I love the higher collar
that stringbag really is super... fly LOL
Looks dope on Fifa with white ankle tape
Does anyone have trouble with mercurial superflys’ chafing the back of their heel?
Yea I have the vapor 14 and in the beginning my heal was slipping but it kinda stopped
Why arent many pros wearing the vapor 14/superfly 8 yet?
They will when the new color will be released (early Feb). This one is only a limited edition
When are they releasing AG??????????
Yeah, I wanna know too... Right now I have no use for an fg model
Nike trying to ride out the collar hype train, like others say superfly 8 is just vapor 14 DF, making the superfly a superfly with consumers wanting both low and high cut, there would be 4 top end mercs (vapor low & high, superfly low & high), something that won't happen
Aren’t the vapor and Superfly the same exact thing without the extra sock???? There would be no point of a vapor high cut
If Nike is reading this...please make a gold R9 vapor ii remake. It’s all I’ve ever wanted
hey josh. Can i have a pair of your f50s i really want some
I think you are doing the same you criticize on the bootnerd´s podcast. We, the boot nerds, migth buy both. But the majority of the people will only buy one. I'm sure cost are much smaller when the only difference between the models is the collar. I don´t think revenues would increase a lot more, if they got to different Mercurials.
Nice vid
imagine Nike being mad for Josh stating facts lul but honestly you're right, the Vapor's and the Superfly's should be different.
I just want a Hypervenom 1 remake , swear to god 😓😒😪
should i spend my money on these, or stick with the vapor 13?
Vapor 13 are better in my opinion, stick with them (I will do the same)
@@1994asv thank you for the reply! i was also leaning towards the vapor 13 because they will probably be cheaper now
Yea if you really like the 13 then stick with that one. It’s still a great shoe!
@@sizzle6080 I just bought another pair for me for 80£, vapor elite totally brand new, so definitely yes! They are going to be cheaper now but after some time people will realize how good they were and they will be super requested as Vapor VIII and Vapor X currently are 👍
