Academy Pack Phantom II released. Not everywhere.

Black Pack called officially Academy Pack was surely one of best 2015 Nike collections. Enough to say, that video showing most of the pack was one of our most viewed. It was released in limited quantities (without telling how many) and was a really cool thing to have. Not everyone managed to get them. Even we don’t have a pair of our own. Gladly it seems that will re-release the Academy Pack once in few months. With this we will sometimes get a new colorway of a model that was released in the meantime. In this case it’s off course the Hypervenom Phantom II.

When in theory this blackout (almost) collection is released for ones who lay in academies that don’t allow colorful boots, truth is that everyone seek for these colorways because of many reasons. Mostly because they are just beautiful. Despite that few of them weren't completely one-color (for example Superfly had green studs) they looked just fantastic. You could check that out in our galleries of Superfly IV, Magista Obra, Legend V or Magista Opus.

Releasing a fifth synthetic colorway of Phantom II (and sixth in total with leather one) is exciting news, especially when it’s a blackout and a true one, because there are no colorful elements in this one. Maybe Nike listened to few voices of complains about that and made their product perfect? We wrote many times about Nike newest football boot, much has also been said about the colorway itself. Many of us will want to buy these just to feel like Naymar when months back he was testing and fitting similar prototypes before the official launch.

Good that Nike has made some changes and made the color perfect, but sadly there is also something bad to say. As far as we know Nike Academy Pack re-release was limited to few markets. Or at least we know that we don’t have it in Poland and when you see some, than that means that there are sold by shops from outside of our country. Too bad that when a company leads in terms of design and innovation, it doesn’t also show a good example in not treating markets differently. Recently that was also the case with pink EvoSpeed SL and numerous times with adidas. Just do it Nike!
