Belatedly rounding out the pack, Nike drop the Mercurial Vapor 14 and Superfly 8 ‘Black x Prism’, wrapping the next-gen boot in a corresponding black base with flashes of red and yellow throughout.

Nike launched the ‘Black x Prism’ pack last week, with the black look with pops of colour for the Phantom GT and Tiempo Legend 8 arriving shortly after the debut of the impressive new next generation Mercurial. Now that it has soaked up the attention of the world, the Swoosh release an alternate look for both the Vapor 14 and Superfly 8 to complete the ‘Black x Prism’ pack.

In case you missed it, the ‘Black x Prism’ pack took the science behind the separating the colours contained within sunlight, highlighting that by placing it on a black base, hence ‘Black x Prism’. See, makes sense when you think about it. 

The pack sees these colours flash through the Swoosh on each silo, transitioning through blue to yellow on the Phantom and blue to red on the Tiempo. And for the Mercurial Vapor and Superfly, it’s red to yellow, noticeable again on the Swoosh, but even more impressively executed on the redesigned soleplate. A slightly more understated design than the launch look and the new on-pitch ‘Spectrum Pack’ version, which has also looked today, but it’s no less appealing for it, and is sure to be favoured on grassroots pitches.
