As always, the SoccerBible is your first stop for full and exclusive imagery of the new Nike Elite T90 Laser II football boots...
Throughout the year they have grown in performance and popularity since their original release and can now add another colour-way to their growing collection...
The Elite collection of Laser III football boots have been a popular choice amongst professionals across the footballing world. Some of the worlds best players including Wesley Sneijder opt for the Elite level boots for the added performance a super lightweight power-boot can offer!
The Black/White/Electric Green 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-enforce 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 Shot-shield technology, 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, 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.
Expect to see these on the shelves around the first week of January, where they will set you back around $325 USD / £250 GBP.
