Details & story
Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 Sunset Pulse Vini Jr
The boot that never made it to the shelf. The Nike Mercurial Vapor 16 Elite FG "Sunset Pulse" Vini Jr Player Edition from 2026 — Vinicius Jr's second Nike signature colourway — wears a vivid pink upper with silver and purple detailing over a bold blue soleplate — style code IM3643-640. Never officially released to the public in Australia: recalled before hitting shelves over a chrome-finish defect, this is authentic, untouched pre-release stock.
The Vaporposite+ upper pairs textured Flyknit with a fused skin overlay for a second-skin fit, with the Air Zoom strobel unit giving explosive energy return. A carbon fibre plate with chevron and bladed studs drives multi-directional traction on firm ground.
