Nike Hypervenom Face Edinson Cavani Makes Surprise Boot Silo Switch
Edinson Cavani, who is one of the faces of the Nike Hypervenom Phantom III football boots, has totally surprisingly switched to the Nike Mercurial silo for Uruguay's 2018 World Cup qualifiers against Argentina and Paraguay.
Cavani Debuts Nike Mercurial Superfly V & Nike Mercurial Vapor XI Boots
Close up with the two different boots worn by Edinson Cavani.
However, Cavani not only switched away from the Nike Hypervenom football boots to one Nike Mercurial soccer cleat, he even laced up in Nike's two different Mercurial models against Argentina (Nike Mercurial Superfly V & Nike Mercurial Vapor XI). This is a clear indicator that he was not completely happy with the Nike Hypervenom Phantom III and is looking for the perfect boot for him.
It is not the first time that Edinson Cavani has worn Nike Mercurial football boots as he already worn Nike's low-cut Nike Mercurial Vapor speed boot for two months, from November 2014 (when he switched from Adidas to Nike) until January 2015, when he switched to the Nike Hypervenom Phantom cleats.

Harrogate Town 26-27 Home Kit Released
Harrogate Town has officially revealed its new home kit for the 2026-2027 season. Produced by technical sponsor New Balance, the latest primary strip offers a bold and modern twist on the club's traditional yellow and black colors. Following the recent reveal of their striking geometric away jersey, this home release confirms that New Balance is committed to delivering highly bespoke and eye-catching designs for the North Yorkshire side's upcoming campaign.
The New Balance Harrogate Town 26-27 home shirt features a vibrant yellow base, anchored by thick black vertical stripes across the front of the torso. However, instead of traditional solid bands, these stripes are executed with a modern, pixelated halftone gradient effect that fades heavily around the midsection to seamlessly accommodate the black "envirovent" sponsor logo. To ensure a cohesive and sharp aesthetic, the New Balance manufacturer logo and the official club crest are both applied in a sleek black and yellow monochrome finish.
The launch completes the team's set for 2026-2027.
