Nike is set to release new Air Max 1 FB colorways under the "Mercurial" pack. Taking direct inspiration from specific eras in the Mercurial soccer boot's history, the pack consists of four vibrant colorways—Polarized Blue/Total Crimson (2014), Atomic Violet/Total Orange (2010), Vibrant Yellow/Black (2006), and Metallic Silver/Volt (2002). Nike takes the inspiration even further, by constructing the Air Max 1 FBs with the exact material used on the current Mercurial model. Obviously, no studs included on this lifestyle sneaker, though.

The UK is already expected to release this collection on March 28. For us in the States, look for the Nike Air Max 1 FB "Mercurial" pack to release on April 12 at Nike Sportswear retailers and Nike.com.
