UPDATE: Neymar Trains In Mysterious Blackout Boots - All-New Nike Phantom GT?

  • Neymar's Blackout Boots: Neymar was seen training in unreleased, all-black Nike boots with a unique swoosh placement, potentially indicating a new model.
  • Hazard's Similar Boots: Eden Hazard was previously seen in similar, unbranded blackout boots, hinting at the possibility of a shared prototype.
  • Phantom GT Speculation: These blacked-out boots are speculated to be the upcoming Nike Phantom GT model, slated to replace the Phantom VNM in Summer 2020.

Update: We were made aware of another image from the PSG training session during which Neymar tested an unreleased, blacked-out pair of Nike boots earlier this month. On it we can clearly see the Swoosh placement, which is different from any existing Nike models - which makes it more likely he was indeed trying out the upcoming Phantom GT.

PSG superstar Neymar already some days ago trained in totally blackout football boots. Let us take a closer look at them - Neymar was not the first Nike athlete to wear them...

Neymar Wears Same Blackout Boots As Hazard in Training - All-New Nike Phantom GT?

The boots worn by Neymar are totally blackout. They have a synthetic upper that appears to be quite thin but relatively stiff, a very low collar and no distinct tongue. The sole plate seems to be similar to the Nike Mercurial sole plate.

While it first seems like that Neymar was wearing a never-seen-before soccer cleat without any brandings, a closer look and a look in the past reveals that Neymar's blackout cleats could be the same as those used by Hazard in training in November 2018.

Both Eden Hazard and Neymar usually lace up in the Nike Mercurial Vapor 360 football boots. However, as the current-gen Nike Mercurial soccer cleats were just released half a year ago, it is possible that they were not testing the Mercurial but an all-new boot silo - the Nike Phantom GT.

The Nike Phantom GT is the all-new Nike Phantom boot silo that will replace the Nike Phantom VNM in Summer 2020.

Stay tuned for more about the cleats worn by Neymar and Neymar in the coming months.

Adidas Germany 'Alternate History' 1992 Collection Leaked

Update - Friday, May 22, 2026: Thanks to our follower @Julifu90, we have an image of the t-shirt of the Adidas Germany EQT 1992 retro collection. It is set to be released in the coming days.

We have the first image of a unique new Adidas Germany retro jacket, showcasing an intriguing new approach from the sportswear brand.

While the design instantly evokes strong nostalgia for the 1990s, this upcoming release is actually an "alternate history" creation. Despite its highly authentic vintage appearance and period-accurate details, this specific track jacket never actually existed in the official Adidas catalogues during the 1990s, making it a brand new addition to their retro-focused lifestyle collection.

To achieve this convincing old-school aesthetic, Adidas has utilized their classic 1992 template as the structural foundation for the design. The garment features a vibrant green base that heavily nods to Germany's traditional away kits of the era. The colors of the German national flag are cleverly completed on the sleeves through large geometric blocks that also recreate the 3 stripes.

The same jacket will also be released for Spain and other Adidas national teams.
