Michael Olise Wears Custom Nike Hypervenom Phantom 3 Boots by Matty Boy
Jun 17, 2026, by Phan Tich Giay
Michael Olise took to the pitch for his first 2026 World Cup match against Senegal wearing a unique pair of custom football boots. Rather than opting for one of Nike's current mainline models, Olise laced up in a personalized version of the Nike Hypervenom Phantom III boots.
The boots were customized by artist Matt Digiacomo, widely known as Matty Boy. The design features a distinct hand-painted aesthetic, applying personalized graphics and details directly onto the classic Hypervenom Phantom III 'Just Do It', released in 2018. This choice by Olise highlights a continuing trend of players showcasing bespoke, artist-customized footwear during major tournaments.
The custom Matty Boy edition serves as a striking blend of high-performance football gear and individual streetwear-inspired artistry.

Unai Simón Forced to Modify Gloves at 2026 World Cup
During Spain vs Belgium, the Spanish goalkeeper played in a modified pair of Reusch gloves, with the brand's signature "R" logo completely removed. This adjustment was made to meet strict FIFA rules. Big thanks to @jerseystory_vn for spotting this interesting detail.
According to section 18.4.1 of the FIFA Equipment Regulations, a manufacturer's logo on goalkeeper gloves must not exceed 20cm² and can only appear once. Because the full "Reusch" text logo was already printed on the index finger, the additional "R" logo on the back had to be removed.
However, likely due to a referee oversight, Simón still managed to play with his original, unmodified gloves - featuring both logos, during Spain's final group stage match against Uruguay.
Alongside Unai Simón, several other high-profile goalkeepers, including Álisson Becker and Gregor Kobel, are also wearing similar Reusch gloves at the 2026 World Cup.
