SCRAPPED: Next-Gen Adidas X Ghosted+ 'Darkmotion' Black Pack Boots
Dec 27, 2020, by Chris
Update: Adidas actually did already want to release them in July 2020 as part of the Darkmotion Pack, but they never came out. Now the boots shortly appeared in an online store - however, they shortly after disappeared again.
We are sure that they will be never released, just as two other next-gen Adidas X colorways scheduled for the second half of 2020.
Adidas X Darkmotion Black Pack Summer 2020 - Scrapped
Update: A new picture of the Adidas X Ghosted+ 'Darkmotion' 2020-21 Black Pack boots has been leaked via @bootheadmalaysia. We expect them to be released very soon - the other boots of the Adidas 2020-21 Black Pack were already launched.
Pictures of the two top-tier versions of the 'Darkmotion' Adidas X Ghosted boots have been leaked, after we already got a good look at the 'InFlight' debut colorway a few days ago.
The Darkmotion Adidas X Ghosted+ and Ghosted.1 boots introduce a more understated design in black and blue.

Nigeria Women Update Crest With 10 Stars
At the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON), defending champions Nigeria featured a special detail on their shirts: 10 stars added above their crest. The "Super Falcons" had never worn stars on their kits in previous WAFCONs.
The 10 stars represent Nigeria's 10 continental titles, celebrating their history as the most dominant team in African women's football. Big thanks to our Vietnamese partner @jerseystory_vn for the collage image.
