After the huge hit of the ‘Voltage Purple’ style in January 2024, flaunted by none other than Mbappé, Nike is back at it again. This March, they’re unleashing a brand new Mercurial, and guess who’s taking the spotlight this time? It’s none other than Vinicius Jr. from Real Madrid. This one’s inspired by the iconic Air Max Plus ‘Sunset’ from ’98.

Celebrating 25 years of the Air Max Plus, this special edition fuses nostalgic vibes with the most advanced features from the Nike Mercurial line.

But hey, if you’re more into the ‘Sunset’ vibe without all the football bells and whistles, you’re in luck! Rumour has it that Nike will be restocking the iconic sneaker in the upcoming months. Let’s dive into the details.

Just like before, these shoes rock the same features as your regular Mercurial football boots. Think a Zoom Air unit and a Nike Flyknit upper, giving you top-notch comfort and control while you’re out on the pitch. But what really catches the eye is the Mercurial Vapor 15 Elite FG ‘Sunset’ colourway. It goes from a deep, intense red to a mellow orange, giving off those classic ‘Sunset’ vibes like the Air Max Plus.

And hey, check out those wavy overlays! They’re a nod to the Air Max Plus, keeping that cool black look from the original. But here’s the twist – instead of the usual ‘TN’ logo, you’re getting a slick ‘ZM’ on these babies.
