MERLIN MATCH FOOTBALL

FEWER SEAMS, BIGGER SWEET SPOT.

Tech innovation arrives on the pitch in the Nike Merlin Match Football. Taking traditional 12-panel construction to a 4-panel configuration substantially reduces seams and opens up a wider striking surface. Aerowtrac grooves keep the ball flying where you want it to go, while 3-D ink patterns strategically raise the texture in certain zones for enhanced boot-to-ball interaction.

• 4-panel construction reduces seams and enlarges the striking surface.
• 3-D ink patterns apply variations in texture for targeted control.
• Nike Aerowtrac grooves allow consistency in ball spin.
• Foam casing consists of multiple layers of polyurethane bonded together with a cloth backer.
• Latex bladder wrapped in cloth maintains air pressure more consistently than traditional rubber bladders, keeping the ball shape spherical.
