Nike is reportedly returning the iconic Kobe Bryant “Mambacurial” theme to the soccer pitch with the Mercurial Superfly 11 Elite “Mambacurial.” Following first look imagery that surfaced online, the upcoming release adapts the signature palette of the original 2013 Nike Kobe 8 onto a modern performance cleat.
Suggested imagery reveals a lightweight FlyWeave Ultra upper dressed in a bright pink base that transitions into a purple fade around the boot and cleat plate.
