Mauro Icardi gives us a closer look at the next-gen Nike Hypervenom 2 2015 Football Boots, set to be revealed in Summer 2015. The 21-year old Argentine striker Icardi, who has been linked with a move to Manchester United in the past days, laced up in black-out Nike Hypervenom 2 Soccer Cleats during the last few training sessions.

After Nike introduced the Dynamic Fit collar for the Magista Obra and Nike Mercurial Superfly, the next-gen Nike Hypervenom 2015 Cleat will join Nike's revolutionary high-top boots with a included sockliner for a sock-like fit.

Icardi's Blackout Nike Hypervenom 2 Cleat shows a synthetic upper with Flywire strings, while the forefoot area of the new Blackout Nike Hypervenom 2 Boot features a distinctive stitching pattern.

The outsole of the Nike Hypervenom 2 Boot is similar to the first generation agility sole plate. Nike uses conical studs for better rotational agility, which was already a key feature for the first Nike Hypervenom Boot.

Mauro Icardi joins players such as Neymar, Robert Lewandowski, Isco, Adriano and Hachim Mastour, who also laced up in one of the biggest boot releases in 2015.

The next-gen Nike Hypervenom II 2015 Football Boots will be launched in May 2015 with an orange paint job, while Nike will also reveal a striking green and grey Nike Hypervenom 2 Boot. For the first time in the history of the agility boot, Nike will also launch a K-leather Nike Hypervenom 2 Boot.
