Celebrating the driven athletes of the future, the Swoosh powerhouse and Manchester United star have joined forces for the first time, to deliver the Nike x Marcus Rashford Collection.
It’s not shocking that Nike have partnered with renowned baller Marcus Rashford for a all-new capsule collection. Recognised for his tekkers as well as his impact beyond the pitch, the 26 year old has made big waves for social change, campaigning against child poverty and food insecurity in the UK. Now, the role model joins forces with the Swoosh to present an inaugural dynamic offering of apparel and footwear, delivering steeze that you can flex on and off the pitch. Intended to push boundaries and drive empowerment in the next gen of athletes – let’s take a closer look at what’s on offer!
Kicking things off with the sneakers at hand, the collection utilises the Nike Mercurial Superfly 9 Elite and Air Max Pulse across the Elite, Pro and Academy versions. The Mercurial Superfly arrives in a pristine white palette, embellished with neon hits throughout the exterior. A black lined Swoosh takes centre stage in gracing the sidewalls, consisting of a subtle pink-to-yellow gradient that perfectly complements the shoe’s persona. Bringing an enchanting energy to the model is an iridescent soleplate, sitting below an equally magical slogan. Depicting the line, ‘when you believe in yourself, incredible things can happen’, we’re reminded of the sentimental essence of the capsule. Nice one, Rashford!
Moving onto the collaborative Air Max Pulse, this lifestyle-tailored iteration takes a laid-back, yet dynamic approach. Donning a gentle palette of pale blue, grey and white, the silhouette is grounded by black accents within the tongue, laces and insole. Featuring faint white linework within the upper, the pastel hue sits atop a crisp heightened mudguard. Grey tones ground the model within the rear, midsole and heel, adorned with neon orange ‘MR’ co-branding.
Completing the capsule is a streamlined offering of apparel, consisting of bottoms, t-shirts and a sleek woven tracksuit jacket. Boasting a minimalistic edge throughout the clothing sector, you can take pride in these pieces to deliver versatile style and comfort.
