Nike Unveils First Football Cleat Built Using 3D Printing Technology

Weighing in at 5.6 oz, the Nike Vapor Laser Talon is designed to master the 40-yard dash. Combining the insights of the Nike SPARQ training team with world class sprinter Michael Johnson, the Vapor Laser Talon is tailored to enhance an athlete’s ‘zero step’ and longer maintain their ‘drive stance.’ Running terms aside, the cleats also debut the new Selective Laser Sintering technology for football’s first 3D printed plate. This change in the production process is set to improve the weight, shape, and speed at which cleats are made. Stay tuned to Snkrs Day for more information on the Vapor Laser Talon and SLS technology.
