Next-Gen Nike Mercurial Vapor 11 Euro 2016 Boots Released
The next-gen Nike Mercurial Vapor XI football boots introduce a bold look, unveiled today ahead of Euro 2016 and Copa America Centenario. There, the new Nike Mercurial Vapor 11 Spark Brilliance boots will be worn by some of the world's best players such as Dani Alves, Eden Hazard or Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Nike launched the current generation of the Nike Mercurial Vapor, the Nike Mercurial Vapor X, ahead of the 2014 World Cup. As an alternative with a heightened collar, Nike also dropped the next-gen Nike Mercurial Superfly V boots in the same paint job.
Next-Gen Nike Mercurial Vapor XI Euro 2016 - Total Crimson / Volt / Black / Pink Blast
This is the bold Nike Mercurial Vapor 11 boots for Euro 2016 and Copa America Centenario.
Closely following the look of the next-gen Nike Mercurial Superfly V soccer cleats, the next-gen Nike Mercurial Vapor 2016 boots are predominantly red (Total Crimson), fading to black at the rear. The sockliner, one-piece tongue and the laces of the 11th-generation Nike Mercurial Vapor football boots are also colored in black.
The other visual element of the next-gen Nike Mercurial Vapor 11 Euro and Copa America 2016 soccer boots are the uber-bold Volt elements, such as the lateral Swoosh, the sole plate and all other Nike brandings. To highlight the all-new speed rib texture, black and pink (Pink Blast) lines run along the top of the Nike Mercurial Vapor XI Spark Brilliance 2016 cleats.
Made for ultimate ball control at high speed and impeccable traction, the red and black Nike Mercurial Vapor 11 football boots introduce the all-new speed rib structure on the upper. Designed to be the new trademark element of the Nike Mercurial silo, the speed ribs are placed on the upper of the next-gen Nike Mercurial Vapor 11, as well as the new Nike Mercurial Superfly V cleats. They work towards improving lockdown and touch on the new red and yellow Nike Mercurial Vapor XI 2016 boots.
Other than that, the Nike Mercurial Vapor 11 Euro 2016 boots largely echo the look of their predecessors, including both the unique one-piece upper construction and a similar, ultra-thin Teijin microfiber upper. The upper of the next-gen Nike Mercurial Vapor football boots again features Nike's ACC (All Conditions Control) technology.
The next-gen Nike Mercurial Vapor 2016 boots also come with a totally new outsole design. While the positioning of the studs is almost exactly the same as the one of the previous generation, the new Nike Mercurial Vapor 11 Spark Brilliance soccer cleats come with cleats that feature a remarkable triangular shape, designed for ultimate speed on firm ground surfaces.
Set to be available from May 28, the striking next-gen Spark Brilliance Nike Mercurial Vapor XI football boots retail at 200 Euro (200 USD, 160 GBP), a similar price as the current-gen Nike Mercurial Vapor X boots.

Ezeta and Daniel Norris Reveal New Tivoli Calcio Logo
Italian creative sports brand Ezeta has officially presented a brand-new logo for Tivoli Calcio 1919. Designed in collaboration with graphic designer Daniel Norris, the updated crest aligns perfectly with Ezeta's established reputation for blending modern design aesthetics with deep local history, providing the Italian side with a highly bespoke and culturally resonant identity.
The newly unveiled emblem intricately weaves several of the city's most recognizable historical landmarks and symbols into a single, cohesive design. The crest prominently features a traditional eagle, the historic Rocca Pia fortress, a classic three-arched bridge, and the flowing waters of the Aniene River. These carefully chosen elements have long safeguarded the historical identity of Tivoli, and their inclusion ensures the club's badge remains deeply connected to its geographical roots.
According to Ezeta, the updated logo was specifically created to celebrate the city's rich heritage and highlight the pride of the local "Tiburtini" people.

Leaked: Official Look at Nike x Palace England Jacket and Boots
Following the announcement of the highly anticipated England x Nike x Palace World Cup collection, we have the first detailed images, courtesy of sneaker insider @vladieboi.
The image shows a striking full-zip Enfland Palace track jacket paired with matching pants. The tracksuit features a two-tone grey and silver colorway, dominated by a geometric, repeating cross pattern that serves as a subtle, stylized nod to the St. George's Cross. The defining detail, however, sits on the right chest: a bespoke co-branded logo that sees the iconic red Nike Swoosh slicing directly through the famous Palace Tri-Ferg emblem, sitting opposite the traditional England national team crest.
Also visible is a pair of retro-inspired Nike x Palace footwear. Bearing a strong resemblance to classic heritage silhouettes like the Nike Premier, the black shoes feature a nostalgic fold-over tongue adorned with bold red "PALACE" text and a small white Swoosh. The boots come with a cage, making it easy to wear them on the streets.

River Plate Unearth Previously Unknown 1914 Crest
Argentine giants River Plate have officially unveiled a previously undiscovered crest from 1914. The historic emblem was revealed by the club's Museum, Trophies, and History Department as part of their 125th-anniversary celebrations. With the official recognition of this newly found design, the total number of crests used throughout River Plate's extensive history has now risen to 24.
The vintage logo features a circular shape characterized by striking Art Nouveau typography, perfectly reflecting the popular artistic trends of the early 20th century. This unique piece of footballing heritage was discovered on an original membership card belonging to Esteban Fortunati, the club's fourth-ever member and a key figure who served as vice president and treasurer during their formative years. The historic document was recently brought to the River Plate museum by his great-granddaughter, Florencia Gilardón, allowing the club to officially preserve the forgotten emblem.
This discovery offers a rare glimpse into the early visual identity of River Plate, showcasing a completely different aesthetic long before their iconic "CARP" monogram became a globally recognized symbol.

Hertha Berlin Announces Sparda-Bank Berlin as New Front-of-Shirt Sponsor
German 2. Bundesliga side Hertha BSC has officially announced a new front-of-shirt sponsorship agreement. Starting July 1, the logo of Sparda-Bank Berlin will feature prominently across the chest of the club's kits. The cooperative bank is stepping up its involvement with the capital city club, having already served as Hertha's official sleeve sponsor during the previous campaign.
The new primary sponsorship contract is set to run for four seasons, keeping Sparda-Bank Berlin on the front of the shirts until the end of the 2029-2030 season. This long-term agreement marks the official end of the club's relationship with previous main sponsor Checkcars24, whose branding will no longer appear on the club's uniforms. Checkcars24 did not pay Hertha for more than half a year, which led to the end of the deal.
Hertha Managing Director Peter Görlich praised the expanded partnership, highlighting the bank's strong regional roots and the proven success of their existing relationship. According to the club's official press release, the new deal will extend far beyond matchday visibility, with both parties committed to tackling specific social initiatives over the next four years. These upcoming community projects will include promoting financial education, supporting partner clubs in the Brandenburg region, and funding campaigns in the fight against cancer.
