Nike is celebrating the iconic Mercurial Vapor 1 football boots in 2024, launching once again the famous "Chrome / Lime" colorway worn by Ronaldo in 2002.
UPDATE 11/24/2024: Nike released official images of the new Mercurial Vapor 1 "Chrome / Lime" today, and in one of the images showing a keychain we can see that the pair is limited to 4,500 units, with each keychain individually numbered (the image shows pair 3288 of 4500).
Information about the release of the Mercurial “Chrome” football boots first appeared on Footy Headlines, where they mentioned the possibility of launching the “Chrome” and “Gold” color schemes. According to ghetefotbal.ro, the Nike Mercurial Vapor 1 “Chrome” is releasing again during the Winter of 2024. The football boots originally appeared in 2002, being the first pair of boots under 200g. The 2025 pair comes in a “Chrome / Lime” color scheme, which will most likely be identical to the 2002 version. The price for the limited edition football boots will be 300 dollars (approximately 1349 lei). For now, the release date has not been announced, and Nike has not yet confirmed the release rumors. In general, Nike avoids confirming rumors about limited edition releases. Follow Sneaker Market on Google News for more news about limited edition football boots.
