On and Director of Football Thierry Henry have offered a closer look at the Swiss brand’s debut On Football Boot. Shared via Instagram, the prototype reveals the technical foundation and design direction behind On’s entry into the football footwear market. The cleat was initially first worn by Kylian Mbappé.
Stamped with the development code ON-DCPT-KM210, the prototype introduces a thin, translucent upper constructed using On’s proprietary LightSpray technology. The robotic spraying process eliminates traditional seams and structural overlays, giving the silhouette a stripped-back appearance focused on performance and weight reduction.
The preview follows On’s formal expansion into football, featuring an athlete roster led by Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappé and Barcelona midfielder Sydney Schertenleib. While Henry’s teaser showcases a development prototype, it highlights how the Swiss performance label plans to bring its footwear engineering directly to the pitch.
The On football boot is scheduled to launch to the public in early 2027.
