Nike Hypervenom Phinish II 'Ousadia Alegria' Neymar 2016 Boots Released
Nike today launched the unique Nike Hypervenom Neymar 2016 Boots. Inspired by Neymar's Ousadia e Alegria motto, the low-cut Nike Hypervenom Phinish Neymar signature soccer boots boast a stunning design in black, white and red.
Neymar will start wearing his first Nike Hypervenom 2 signature cleats from today, probably in a camouflaged Mercurial variant.
Nike Hypervenom Phinish Neymar Jr - Ousadia e Alegria - Black / Bright Crimson / White
This is the striking Nike Hypervenom II Neymar 2016 signature football boots.
Based on the regular Nike Hypervenom Phinish II soccer cleats, unveiled in May 2015, the new Nike Hypervenom Phinish Ousadia e Alegria 2016 boots introduce a stunning design inspired by Neymar Junior's motto Ousadia e Alegria ('courage and joy').
Neymar and his good friend Thiaguinho, a Brazilian singer, came up with the motto in 2011 to describe the former's unique way of playing: the joy of having the ball and the courage of his attacking dribblings. The motto found its way onto Neymar's boots via custom stitching, while it also became the title of Thiaguinho's 2012 album, which had a feature with Neymar.
The inspiration translates into a striking design which features a unique, black-and-white upper showing a fluid, leaf-like structure. The two parts of Neymar's motto are represented by a stylized fist on the left insole (Ousadia: courage / boldness) and a heart on the right insole (Alegria: joy). The insoles are of a striking red color, with the graphics standing out in black, each accompanied by a black Swoosh.
Red accents in the form of the bold Swooshes on the forefoot and heel, as well as the ends of the studs, round off the unique design of the Nike Hypervenom Phinish Neymar 2016 signature boots. Neymar's logo is placed on the inside of each boot in red on black ground.
Tech-wise, the new Nike Neymar 2016 boots are the same as the regular Nike Hypervenom Phinish boots which were launched in May 2015. Although the trademark zig-zag design of the second generation of the Nike Hypervenom is nowhere to be seen, the black / white / red Nike Hypervenom 'Ousadia e Alegria' 2016 soccer cleats come with the same NikeSkin upper, as well as additional Flywire strings in the midfoot area.
The black Nike Hypervenom Phinish Neymar 2016 cleats will be available at selected retailers for a slightly higher price than the regular Nike Hypervenom Phinish boots from February 2.
