The Nike Mercurial Black History Month are back

It has been 2 years but it was worth the wait, the exclusive BMH collection is back with Mercurial Vapor.

12 January 2018 - Written by Fernando Ortiz

Just in case you missed the last two editions of Nike Football's BHM, they first arrived with a super exclusive version of the Mercurial Superfly IV in black and white and one year afterwards with the Magista Obra, one of its best decorations up to that moment.

For 2018, Nike has decided to use the Mercurial Vapor model for its Black History Month collection, which pays tribute to the fight of black athletes. Nike will set aside part of its benefits for the Nike Ever Higher Foundation that struggles to offer second chances to marginalized young people. post card _DSC1643_2.webp

This exclusive version of Nike Mercurial Vapor BHM boots will only be launched in this version, they won't be seen on Superfly or mid tiers and, as usual, very few units have been made for the public and will only be worn by two players: Dani Alves and Kevin Prince Boateng.

The technical characteristics haven't changed given that Nike has focused on the decoration in which the dominant colour is black. Over it, there are curved lines of different colours that are distributed all over the Teijin upper of the Nike Mercurial Vapor. The BHM logo is also included in the laces and the message "Equality" can be spotted on the sole of both boots.

 

As with any Nike exclusive edition, very few units have been made and in Fútbol Emotion we have some available by clicking on the following link:
