The American soccer player, Alex Morgan recently wore Nike’s PhantomVNM Football Boot 16 to introduce the sneaker to the world.The style of finishing like American Alex Morgan and Englishman Harry Kane is why the design of Nike’s PhantomVNM features an array of textured zones that facilitate a supremely powerful strike. And, yes, it should be understood that even all of the power in the whole wide world won’t score if there is no accuracy to aim the shot on goal. This kind of emphasis is quite evident in the instep’s Precision Pwr strike zone.As per an official release on the Nike website, “We teamed up with our research lab to utilize a robotic leg to test strikes from a variety of angles with urethane-injected ‘blades’ across the instep,” notes Jeongwoo Lee, Senior Design Director for Nike Football Footwear. “This enabled us to go deep statistically on the impact that the various blade iterations had on accuracy, elevation, power, and spin. The lab data helped us land on the exact specifications of Precision Pwr strike zone built for finishers.”“Much like its counterpart in the Phantom family, PhantomVNM increases the strike zone area by covering the laces, giving PhantomVNM a 30-percent larger strike zone than Hypervenom3. But, PhantomVNM does build off the Hyper-Reactive plate made famous on the Hypervenom3. The plate, which takes inspiration from Nike Free, is flexible in the forefoot for toeing off the ground with torque for sharp cuts. This iteration of the HyperReactive plate also strays from traditional plates by exposing its faceted structure. This aesthetic also carries over to the premium faceted Swoosh,” says the website.“My finishing is a balance between power and placement,” says USWNT star Alex Morgan, according to the website. “It depends where I am in the box, but I’d say my focus is usually 60/40 accuracy versus power.”The PhantomVNM has been launched on nike.com. A small-sided version, featuring Zoom Air cushioning, will also be available.Click on the slideshow for a sneak peek at the sneakers. https://www.blouinartinfo.com/ Founder: Louise Blouin Read more
