Recap: A Further Look At Nike's Hi-Vis Collection - Football News

With the release of yesterday's Incyte Ball for the winter months, Nike capped off just over a weeks worth of hi-vis releases. The days are getting duller and the nights darker so it was only a matter of time before someone dropped some kit to brighten up our lives which is exactly what Nike have done.

Kicking off proceedings was last week's release of the 'Hi-Vis' pack, a brand new set of lively colour updates spread across all four of Nike's boot silo's. The FC247 collection continued the trend with new colourways for the Bomba Finale II, Elastico Finale II and Lunargato II, followed swiftly by the a hi-vis version of Nike's top end Incyte match ball.



Nike's Hi-Vis pack saw four new colourways added to the HyperVenom, Mercurial Vapor IX, CTR360 Maestri III and Tiempo Legend IV. The HyperVenom received its loudest colourway to date with a stylish Electro Purple/Volt/Black update. The Mercurial's Purple/Black/Volt paint job was the quietest of all the updates but still loud enough satisfy the Mercurial faithful and a definite winner in the style stakes.

The CTR360 and Tiempo's new do's were by far the brightest in the bunch with Volt/Green colourways dropped on both. It was a refreshing change to see the brighter options given to the boots that are usually a bit more understated, especially the Tiempo Legend IV.

Next up was the FC247 Collection, Nike's series of Futsal shoes that covers all the bases wherever you take your game. In the small sided game you can be a bit more creative with your shoes without the stigma that comes with bright boots and the FC247 has regularly supplied us with daring colourways since its inception. Needless to say the updates given by Nike were once again bright and bold.



The Bomba Finale II's Black/Volt/Electric Green colourway is mostly black and therefore not the loudest shoe we've seen but there's definitely no missing the big bright Nike stamped on the side and the rest of the Volt and Electric Green detailing. We were also fans of the stylish Purple/Volt/Electric added to the Elastico Finale II, but the pick of the bunch was definitely the Lunargato II with its fresh new Green Glow/Pink Foil update that has seen us donning them for way more than just a kick-about.



Finally came the winter update of Nike's innovative Incyte match ball that is played across the EPL, Serie A and La Liga. A predictable seasonal hi-vis update with a less predictable addition of a new Pink swoosh. So there you have it, a sound collection of autumn updates to see you through the winter months.
