Nike Mercurial 2022 'Blueprint' Pack Boots Released - All-New Visual Design

The Mercurial Vapor and Mercurial Superfly from the Nike Blueprint Pack have been released today. We expect the Phantom GT and Tiempo of the collection to be released in a few days.

Nike radically update the visual design of the Mercurial Superfly 8 / Vapor 14 football shoes at the start of 2022.

The current-gen Nike Mercurial Superfly 8 / Vapor 14 cleats were released in February 2021. It is common for Nike to change the visual look of their football shoes at around half of their lifespan.

Nike Mercurial Superfly '2022' Blueprint - Chlorine Blue/Laser Orange/Marina

Here are the new Nike '2022 Main Pack' Mercurial Superfly 8 Elite boots.

The Nike Mercurial Superfly 8 Elite 'Chlorine Blue/Laser Orange/Marina' boasts a fresh look in blue, orange, and navy. The official colors are "Chlorine Blue/Laser Orange/Marina".

What is more interesting than the colors are the various new design elements. The Swoosh on the outstep and instep come with a 3D-layered style. This Swoosh design can be also seen on 2022 training items.

There are two big semicircles as well as two smaller circles with the Swoosh/Mercurial logo.

Tech-wise, the updated Nike Mercurial Superfly 8 Elite football boots from the new 'Blueprint' collection are identical to previous editions. This is not a new generation.

Adidas Colo-Colo EQT Collection Leaked

Adidas is expanding its 1990s-inspired EQT lifestyle range to South America, with official images of the upcoming Colo-Colo EQT collection leaking online. Following recent retro drops for European giants such as Bayern Munich and Juventus, the Chilean club is set to receive its own heritage capsule steeped in unmistakable nineties football culture. Big thanks to @KamilBerberler.

The centerpiece of the range is a retro shirt dominated by Colo-Colo's traditional white, accented by subtle tonal shadow stripes running vertically down the body. It features oversized three stripes sweeping over the shoulders in bold black and red, paired with a chunky ribbed V-neck collar. Staying true to the era, the classic Adidas wordmark and Trefoil are placed centrally on the chest just above the iconic club crest.

Complementing the jersey, the wider lifestyle capsule includes a color-blocked track jacket, matching track pants, a graphic t-shirt, and a relaxed crewneck sweatshirt. The entire collection maintains the club's sharp black, white, and red palette, combining vintage paneling with modern streetwear silhouettes. The Adidas Colo-Colo EQT collection is slated for release in the coming weeks.

Kit Blunder: Matheus Cunha Wears Inverted Sleeve Badges in Manchester Derby

Manchester United striker Matheus Cunha was spotted sporting an unusual kit detail during Sunday's Manchester derby against Manchester City. Eagle-eyed kit enthusiasts quickly pointed out that the Brazilian forward took to the pitch with his sleeve badges completely reversed on his 26-27 home shirt.

Under standard Premier League kit regulations, the official competition badge and "No Room For Racism" patch must be applied to the player's right sleeve, while the left sleeve is reserved for the club's commercial sleeve partner. On Cunha's long-sleeve jersey, however, the configuration was flipped: the sponsor logo was applied to his right arm, leaving the Premier League badge positioned on his left sleeve.

Side-by-side images comparing Cunha's jersey to teammate Marcus Rashford clearly showed the contrast between the standard layout and Cunha's swapped sleeves. Whether caused by a mix-up in the kit room or an accidental printing error during match preparations, the subtle mistake provided a unique talking point for shirt collectors.

River Plate 26-27 Away Pre-Match Kit Leaked

Official images of the River Plate 26-27 away pre-match kit have surfaced, revealing a clean retro-inspired look produced by Adidas. Following the release of the club's tricolor away strip in August, this warm-up top expands River Plate's heritage-driven collection for the 26-27 season. Big thanks to @KamilBerberler.

The Adidas River Plate 26-27 away pre-match jersey features a crisp white body paired with bold red raglan sleeves and a matching white collar. Emphasizing the classic aesthetic, the shirt showcases the iconic Adidas Trefoil logo in red on the right chest, opposite a vintage circular CARP crest in red on the left. Across the upper back, large red block lettering spells out "RIVER" to complete the minimalist, old-school design. The shirt is paired with white shorts sporting black Three Stripes on the sides.

The new River Plate 26-27 away pre-match jersey is scheduled to be worn by the squad during warm-ups for away fixtures and will be available to purchase in the coming weeks.
