It’s Monday afternoon, as everyone knows the worst day of the week, and in nss sports office we were only waiting for the kickoff of Brazil-Mexico, to take our heads off writing about the World Cup for actually SEEING the World Cup. And like a bolt from the blue, Nike forced us to take our eyes off the laptop - well, one laptop - to write something about its latest creature, dropped just in time for the kickoff: the Nike Mercurial Vapor 360 “Meu Jogo”.
As happened for Cristiano Ronaldo's “Edição Especial”, the Swoosh released the boot just for the last sixteen game, probably hoping that it could bring more luck to the Brazilian star that it did for the Portuguese champion. From the technical point of view, the “Meu Jogo” (My Game) is a regular Mercurial, the sock-less Vapor model that is preferred by ‘O Ney’. From an aesthetic perspective, the shoe presents a ‘canary yellow’ colorway that perfectly matches with the underfoot graphic that leverages the 360 construction of the Mercurial. The “Meu Jogo” is dedicated to Neymar’s enthusiastic game that, as he said, “if it made me conquer the things I did, then I don't need to change.”
