February 26th, 2018
A few weeks ago, Nike Football presented the new generation of the Mercurial silo, unveiling the new Vapor 360 and Superfly 360 to the world. For the new model, the Swoosh selected a particular category of footballers, those that embody the spirit of the Nike boot, those that are #BornMercurial. The Beaverton-based company wants everybody to know which ones of its testimonials have this particular spirit. Ahead of the Classique between Marsiglia and Paris Saint-Germain, in fact, Neymar and Mbappé showed a special Nike Football jersey with the Mercurial logo placed instead of the “M”s in their surnames.
Realized for two of the best Mercurial silo’s testimonials, this particular shirt is almost identical to the one that Paris Saint-Germain wear for every game at the Parc des Princes. The peculiarity is the very font used for the naming on the shoulders, that sees the Mercurial logo placed instead of the two “M”s of Neymar and Mbappé. Of course, because of the Ligue 1 regulations, this shirt can be worn for an official game, but you can purchase it at Nike’s Jersey Shop for €85. We won’t ever see this shirt on the pitch anytime soon, but if you want to take the Mercurial spirit with you at the stadiums and 5-a-side football, that the jersey for you.
