Nike Mercurial Vapor Superfly I Yellow SG

New without box - customization on the sides "Johnson" boots were issued to Eddie Johnson on the USAMNT.  

*It is possible to attempt to remove the embroidery, either by a local shoe cobbler, or on your own. 

The Upper:

• The very first Superfly in the iconic Superfly series, using a teijin synthetic material as well as the newly introduced Flywire material
• The Flywire was Nike's lightest and most durable material used at the time, using a wire like design running along the sides of the boots for added reinforcement in a lethal design
• This was one of the 6 released Superfly colorways, using the iconic all yellow upper with black accents

The Sole Plate:

• A major factor in the superfly series was changing the sole plate to a full one piece carbon fiber design
  
• The carbon fiber was much lighter than anything on the market at the time
• This is the SG variant, using 6 screw in SG Aluminum studs

Notes and Comments:

• One of the most iconic Mercurial boots ever made, the start of a brand new lightweight era
  
• Such a simple yet effective colorway that everyone seems to remember, if you didn't have them back then, you definitely want them today
