Total Orange Nike MercurialX Proximo II Boots Leaked
The second generation of the Nike MercurialX Proximo indoor and turf football boots introduces a striking design that takes inspiration from their predecessors, the new Nike Mercurial Superfly V and running shoes. Part of Nike's FootballX-exclusive fall offering, the all-orange next-gen Nike MercurialX Proximo II soccer shoes are set to be launched in September 2016.
Nike MercurialX Proximo II - Total Orange / Bright Crimson / Hyper Crimson
This image shows the striking orange second-gen Nike Mercurial X Proximo indoor shoes.
Combining three different shades of orange and red, these new Nike MercurialX Proximo II 2016-17 boots boast an incredibly bold and striking look. Just like their outdoor equivalent, the Mercurial Superfly V, the orange Nike MercurialX Proximo II football boots feature a gradient from the front to the back, in this case from a lighter to a darker orange. In line with the rest of the style, all brandings are also orange. Rounding off the design is the outsole, also completely coated in orange.
Tech-wise, the new Nike MercurialX Proximo II football boots are less similar to their on-field counterpart. Not only do they boast an extra layer of protection in the forefoot area, the heel and Dynamic Fit collar also come with a number of dissimilarities. The former sees an extra layer of NikeSkin added, while a pull tab is present at the rear of the collar.
Other than that, the second-gen Nike Mercurial X Proximo shoes are similar to the first iteration of Nike's high-top boot for the small-sided game. They have a one-piece Flyknit upper, while a thin layer of synthetic NikeSkin is added on top in order to offer more protection and to improve durability.
The sole has also been completely reworked for the all-new Nike MercurialX Proximo. A "full-length Phylon midsole with sipes for light, responsive cushioning" is used for the new Nike MercurialX Proximo II soccer boots, while the outsole was created specifically for this shoe. Somewhat reminding one of Nike's Free outsoles, it is constructed to support the natural motion of the foot by expanding and retracting upon pressure.
Set to be available for indoor / court (IN) and turf (TF) surfaces, the new Nike MercurialX Proximo II in Total Orange will be released in October, 2016. They retail at $175.

MLS Players Wear Their National Flags on Kits Ahead of 2026 World Cup
Major League Soccer last weekend hosted a dedicated "Farewell Week" to send off its international stars. To mark the occasion, all clubs across the domestic league took to the pitch wearing specially customized kits that honored the various nations represented within their squads.
The most prominent visual update to the MLS uniforms was the addition of official national flags printed directly on the chest for all players and coaching staff. In a highly thoughtful and personalized touch, the league provided specialized double-flag variations for athletes holding dual citizenship. This bespoke detail allowed these specific players to proudly represent both their current homelands and their heritage simultaneously before joining their respective national team camps.
Beyond the chest graphics, teams also sported a unique set of squad numbers on the back of their shirts, featuring a custom pattern made up of the flags of all 48 countries participating in this summer's World Cup.
What do you think of this customized flag concept for the MLS World Cup Farewell Week? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
Śląsk Wrocław Announces Macron Kit Deal - No More Nike
Macron has signed a multi-year agreement to become the technical partner of Polish club WKS Śląsk Wrocław.
Starting from the 2026-27 season, the Italian brand will provide technical apparel for the club's men's first and second teams, women's team, youth academy, and blind football team. The five-season deal is the most significant technical partnership in the club's history and includes plans for a new merchandising line for supporters.

Founded in 1947, the Wrocław-based club has won two Polish league titles, two Polish Cups, and one Super Cup, with experience in European competitions. Macron is developing bespoke game sets that will be revealed before the start of the new season.
The partnership bolsters Macron's presence in Polish football alongside existing deals with Lech Poznań, Widzew Łódź, and GKS Katowice.
