Nike has developed the PhantomVNM football boot,which features a seriesof textured zones to facilitate a powerful strike,but with an understanding that all of the power in the world won't score without the accuracy to keep the shot on goal.This emphasis is most evident in the instep's Precision Pwr strike zone.“We teamed up with our research lab to utilise a robotic leg to test strikes from a variety of angles with urethane-injected 'blades' across the instep,” says 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.”
