It's the next colourway to be released from Nike's supercharged Elite Series football boots, designed and engineered to provide new levels of performance. The SoccerBible is your first stop for full and exclusive images of the Nike Elite T90 Laser III football boots...
The Platinum/Orange Blaze/Black Nike T90 Laser Elite football boots are the result of extensive research and player testing, to create a Nike boot that features lightweight construction, intricate engineering and carbon-enforced strength for superior performance.
The brief and inspiration for the Elite range comes from research that shows the average energy expenditure of an elite player is over 1,000 Kilo Calories per game for a 75kg player. Reducing the weight carried by players helps reduce the energy needed over the course of 90 minutes. By delivering a super-strong and lightweight carbon fibre plate, the T90 Laser III Elites are 16% lighter to give the player an edge in the final stages of a game.
The stand-out feature of the Nike T90 Laser football boots is the ShotShield technolgy, which ensures even pressure on the ball at impact for accuracy. The Instep Pods are designed to be flat to your foot, to create even pressure distribution when shooting the ball with accuracy, and their longitudinal and flexible design accommodates an enlarged kicking area.
Complimenting the Instep Pods are strategically angled and raised Fins
in an Orange Blaze colour, to create friction and increased ball spin
for shooting and passing. Each fin is positioned at a different angle
and a different height ( between 0-3mm), to enable the player to
control the swerve of the ball in multi-directional ways, depending on
how the player kicks the ball, for better ball spin and kicking accuracy.
The carbon fibre sole-plate is a popular addition to Nike football boots, and has been particularly popular with the players ever since it's mainstream introduction on the Mercurial SL football boots. Another feature which distinguishes the Nike Elite T90 Laser football boots is the redesigned heel counter, integrated into the upper for reduced weight and aesthetic purposes
We're expecting the Platinum/Orange Blaze/Black Nike T90 Laser Elite football boots to be available for pre-order from today, 20th September 2010 in the US and 24th September 2010 in Europe.
