Feb 29, 2016, by Pat
With the next installment of its Tech Craft series, fusing modern craftsmanship with iconic materials like leather, Nike is making big strides. Following up on the experimental 'Canvas / Volt' Tech Craft pack, the third collection was launched in March 2016.
The combination of Light Bone and Black is sure to be a hit among fans of the Nike Tech Craft series, with the third episode overseeing a set of new paint jobs for the Nike Hypervenom, Magista, Mercurial and Tiempo.
Nike Hypervenom Phantom II Leather - Light Bone / Black
This is the Light Bone Nike Hypervenom Phantom II k-leather boots.
For the third Nike Hypervenom II Tech Craft football boots, Nike is combining a light grey (Light Bone) front k-leather layer with an understated black base. Recalling memories from iconic black football boots of the past, the addition of Light Bone adds another dimension to the design of new Nike Hypervenom Phantom Tech Craft boots.
Based on the regular Nike Hypervenom Phantom 2 soccer cleats, the Light Bone / Black Nike Hypervenom Phantom II leather boots are technically identical to the synthetic variant, with the exception of an extra layer of leather which is stitched onto the front part. This way, Nike is aiming to offer the supreme touch of a leather boot, while keeping the better durability and stability of shape known from modern synthetic materials.
Available from March 1 in the Nike Football app and from March 3 at all retailers, the Light Bone Nike Hypervenom Phantom II Tech Craft soccer cleats retail at $300 (290 €), a slightly higher price than with the regular Nike Hypervenom Phantom II boots.

Nike to Sell Long-Sleeve Besiktas Kits From 27-28 Season
Nike is set to introduce commercially available long-sleeve kits for Beşiktaş starting from the 27-28 season. Following the club's major switch from Adidas after 17 years, supporters will finally have direct access to official long-sleeve match jerseys at retail. Big thanks to @ertansuzgun & @Formaholic.
The timing aligns with significant milestone celebrations in Istanbul, as Nike is also planning a special 125th-anniversary collection for Beşiktaş during the 27-28 campaign to mark the club's foundation in 1903. Rather than relying on base layers and compression undershirts, players and fans alike will see dedicated long-sleeve designs included in the lineup.
The development forms part of Nike's wider strategy to bring back commercial long-sleeve authentic shirts across its elite roster from 27-28 onwards. By expanding long-sleeve availability to Beşiktaş, Nike closes the gap on rivals like Adidas and provides the Black Eagles with full top-tier treatment under their new partnership.
