Neymar Receives Custom Nike Hypervenom 2 Boots With Low Dynamic Fit Collar
Low Dynamic Fit collar, no Flywire strings and a completely custom sole plate. FC Barcelona superstar Neymar today trained in a heavily modified version of the Nike Hypervenom 2 2015 Boots ahead of Barcelona's Champions League clash against Bayern Munich.
The totally new Nike Hypervenom 2 2015 Soccer Cleats are reported to be revealed in late May 2015, just-in-time for the 2015 UEFA Champions League on June 6. Neymar is expected to debut the next-gen Nike Hypervenom II Soccer Boots in the 2015 Copa del Rey Final on 30 May 2015 against Athletic Bilbao and will also wear the Nike Hypervenom 2 Boots in the Champions League Final if Barcelona beats Bayern Munich.

Neymar's modified version of the Nike Hypervenom Phantom 2 Cleats features a lower Dynamic Fit collar than the retail product, which is set to hit markets in late May 2015. Nike's Dynamic Fit collar is designed for a flexible ankle support and a sock-like fit.
Additionally, the latest version of the custom Nike Hypervenom Phantom II Neymar Prototype Boots does not feature Flywire threads in the upper, which are a key feature of the all-new Nike Hypervenom Phantom 2 Cleats. Neymar's custom Nike Hypervenom 2 Cleats feature a NikeSkin upper without Flywire and additional stitching in the forefoot area.
Nike Hypervenom Neymar vs regular Nike Hypervenom (worn by Isco)
In fact, Neymar already trained in the first blackout Nike Hypervenom Phantom 2 2015 Boots in early January 2015. Since then, the Brazilian striker received several different modified versions of the Nike Hypervenom 2, while his latest boot is anything but the retail version of the Nike Hypervenom Phantom II Soccer Shoes.
It's no surprise that Neymar's new Nike Hypervenom 2 Boots features a custom sole plate as Neymar already received a modified outsole for the first-generation Nike Hypervenom Cleats. Update 05/05/2015 Neymar's modified Nike Hypervenom II Boot features the sole plate of the Nike Tiempo Legend IV Boots, which were released in 2011.
Last year Cristiano Ronaldo opted out for a lower Dynamic Fit collar for his Nike Mercurial Superfly Boot. It now looks like Neymar will also sport a modified version of the Nike Hypervenom Phantom 2 Boots.

QPR Kit Clash Against West Brom
QPR faced a major kit clash in their EFL Championship away game at West Brom, wearing their pink away shirt with blue shorts against West Brom's traditional blue-and-white home shirt.
The bright pink of QPR looked surprisingly similar to the white stripes of West Brom on TV, while the blue shorts and dark details made the overall contrast even less clear.
From the wide camera angle, the two teams became difficult to distinguish, creating a frustrating viewing experience for fans.
Nike Kobe 8 Protro 'Mambacurial' Releasing Next Week
Nike is set to officially bring back one of its most famous crossover designs, the Kobe 8 Protro "Mambacurial", releasing on September 19, 2026. First introduced in 2013 as a tribute to Kobe Bryant's lifelong passion for football, the sneaker drew direct inspiration from the vibrant 2013 Nike Mercurial Vapor IX football boot. Thirteen years after its original debut, the model returns under the modernized Protro banner, uniting basketball performance with iconic football heritage. Big thanks to House of Heat.
The shoe faithfully recreates the beloved colorway, featuring a bold gradient across the engineered mesh upper in Red Plum, Pink Flash, and Electric Green. Signature football details define the look, including the oversized forefoot Swoosh that mimics Mercurial boot branding, massive block-letter "NIKE" lettering across the medial flank, and a translucent neon green outsole. Modern Protro upgrades have been implemented beneath the surface to provide improved cushioning and traction.

Norwegian Toppserien side SK Brann Kvinner have officially unveiled their new 26-27 third kit, produced by Nike in collaboration with Unisport. The team debuted the vibrant new design during their away fixture against Lyn in Oslo.
The Nike SK Brann Kvinner 26-27 third shirt features a purple base paired with a large, dark rhododendron flower graphic printed across the front. The design honors Bergen's reputation as Norway's "Rhododendron City," known for the vibrant bushes that flourish in gardens and parks across the city. All branding, including the Nike Swoosh, monochrome Brann crest, and sponsor logos, is applied in a contrasting bright pink.
On the back, the jersey includes the inscription "For Bergen" in gothic lettering just below the collar, symbolizing the pride of representing the city on away trips. The new third uniform completes Brann Kvinner's 26-27 wardrobe alongside their traditional red home and dark away kits.
Special Club América 26-27 Kit Font Released
Club América has unveiled a special commemorative kit font for the 26-27 season, celebrating Mexican Independence Day and the club's marquee Clásico matches throughout September. The bespoke nameset replaces the regular squad typography on the back of Las Águilas' primary yellow home shirt, adopting the iconic green, white, and red of the Mexican flag.
The custom numbers feature a deep green base detailed with thin white vertical pinstripes. Embedded along the vertical lines are historic commemorative inscriptions, including the club name, the date "16 - 09 - 1810" marking the start of the Mexican War of Independence, and "INDEPENDENCIA DE MÉXICO". The player names above are rendered in vibrant red with a clean white outline.
To complete the patriotic design, each numeral incorporates a geometric red and cream 3D shadow effect, alongside Club América's crest placed at the base of every digit. The special typography delivers a unique cultural tribute, adding extra identity to the squad's jerseys during one of the most important periods of the Mexican football calendar.
