Special Edition Black / Gold Nike Hypervenom Phantom 3 'Game of Gold' Boots Released
Apr 9, 2018, by Chris
Confirming previous leaks, the release date and more details of special-edition black and gold Nike Hypervenom Phantom 3 2018 football boots have been revealed today. The special-edition cleat is officially called Nike Hypervenom 'Game of Gold' cleat. The boot will be available from April 12 2018 and will be worn by Nike's best strikers such as Lewandowski.
The inspiration for the new Nike Hypervenom 3 "Game Of Gold" comes from the search for gold. Since the beginning of the gold rush in the United States of America in 1848, thousands of adventurers and seekers of the precious metal have dedicated their lives to the dream of finding this precious metal. However, only a few have achieved their prize, while many others have failed in the attempt, even losing their lives in the test. These two ideas are reflected in its two predominant colors; the gold and black, a composition of contrasts that has a double meaning.
