New 2016 Nike Academy Pack Released
Mar 7, 2016, by Pat
Besides launching the all-new blackout Nike Tiempo Legend VI Academy Pack boots, Nike is making the Hypervenom, Magista and Mercurial cleats from the collection available again, too. Set to be available in relatively limited quantities, the new Nike Academy Pack boots will retail at the same prices as the regular Nike boots.
Nike Tiempo Legend VI Academy Pack
Boasting an almost completely black look, the totally new Nike Tiempo Legend VI football boots only sparsely include colored details. The Tiempo writing and the Swoosh on the sole plate are colored in Volt.
Nike Hypervenom Academy Pack
Added in the second iteration of the Academy Pack, the all-black Nike Hypervenom Phantom II boots resemble the look of blackouts worn by professionals for play-tests.
Also available as Nike Hypervenom Phinish.
Nike Magista Academy Pack
Fitting right in with the rest of the pack, the Nike Academy Pack Magista cleats are black with subtle colored accents inside the studs.
Also available as Nike Magista Opus.
Nike Mercurial Academy Pack
The same design was chosen for the Nike Mercurial Academy Pack football boots which additionally boast a subtly reflective Swoosh.
Also available as Nike Mercurial Vapor X.
The new 2016 Nike Academy Pack football boots will go on sale today, March 6, 2016. Unlike the last Nike black pack, the new collection is set to be available in both Europe and the US. At least if Nike Football's official US Twitter account announcing the launch is an indicator.
Understated. Unrivalled.

FC Cartagena 26-27 Away Kit Released
Spanish side FC Cartagena and Macron have officially launched their new away kit for the 26-27 season, paying homage to the city's rich three-thousand-year heritage. Draped in traditional carmesí red, the jersey is decorated with an intricate all-over graphic pattern inspired by an ancient Roman mosaic uncovered in the crypt beneath the Catedral de Santa María la Vieja. Elegant gold detailing highlights the monochrome crest, collar trim, sleeve cuffs, and sponsor emblems, completed by the Latin motto Carthago Nova Invicta Est subtly sublimated onto the lower hem.
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.
