'Â *Update: Mercurial Vapor Superfly 2 available to Order Now!*
One of the stars of the US international team, Clint Dempsey receives special treatment from his US based boot sponsor Nike. Let’s see what ‘Deuce’ is smiling about now.
When he is rapping, he’s known as ‘Deuce’, when he’s playing football it’s Clint Dempsey.
The Texan born Fulham player can be forgiven for feeling that ‘Clint’ doesn’t ‘Just Do It‘ for hip hop, but Nike are happy to use ‘Clint’ as their pin up for football.
So much so that he has been presented with a custom made pair of Mercurial Superfly football boots for his next International match against Honduras.
It’s not the first time Dempsey has received a custom made football boot to d'©but in an International. Back in February he ran out in a custom made Mercurial Vapor SL.
Like before, the football boot will feature the “Don’t Tread On Me” snake coiled on the heel and this time he has his daughters name Elyse imprinted prominently.
Deuce Clint has had a highly successful season with his club Fulham, managing to qualify for the newly named UEFA Europa League next term, thanks to their 7th place finish in the Premier League. However, against Honduras he’ll be trying to help the US qualify for the 2010 World Cup, the US need to bounce back after their loss to Costa Rica in the week.
Nice. Got to say I like them more than the current Pro’s Superfly boot, though I think the Black / Yellow version will be very sweet.
What an awesome boot! really hope that this colourway would be available to us mortal people!
A lot better than the originals. Very nice boots!
Damn those are nice looking. Hopefully the USA can get their heads out of their asses for their game against Honduras. They were completely worthless against Costa Rica. Great looking boots though.
they are alright, if you check the colors closely they are very, very similar to the American football shoe named the “Men’s Nike Vapor (Jet)”.
i knew when they released 5 pictures that the shoe might evolve retroactively to the american crowd as we’ve been watching this color pattern now in one sport for a year, and now maybe a year or two in another sport, so kind of disapointed
Wow your a real downer.
i dont hope to see them for the mortals.
Beautifull pair of Mercurial Superflys, anyone know where I can get a pair like that but without the snake and the writing?
hey its a website that you can have any nike as long as its on the website it doesnt have the snake or the writing but you can have a few other mascots and your name and number:
