Nike Phantom Scorpion Has Arrived

If you haven't seen the iconic Nike 'Secret Tournament' ad from 2002 which featured the who's who of Nike Football athletes at the time, take a trip down memory lane below. We can describe it to you, but that won't do the masterpiece justice.

Everything about the ad is on point. The location, King Eric on top of the cage, the players and epic music - it is arguably the greatest Nike ad of all time. 

Fast forward to 2020 and Nike has decided to honour the iconic moment with two epic Phantom GT Scorpion boots. A low cut and a DF version for those who prefer the higher cut model. 

The boots are packed with nostalgia and have an embossed scorpion logo which sits on the side of the boot with the words "Engineered for skills - Secret Tournament" on show. Fans will remember the scorpion from the start of the ad with the pair of boots, before the big sliding doors open with the logo seen on the wall which opens up to reveal the players. 

The chrome upper and plate that reference the tournament’s ball, while the yellow and black hazard detailing on the lace tips and collar reference the goals used in the ads.  

We don't really have to explain how cool these are. If you grew up knowing the ad and the players - these boots are going to mean something to you. We'll cherish our samples that we keep in the office for years to come.
