the limited-edition NIKE HYPERVENOM phantom transforms are made with a heat-activated material on the upper, which transforms to reveal a vibrant orange pattern as the boots are worn. shortly after the player removes the boots from their feet they return to all black. the boots upper features ‘nikeskin’ technology, which fits closer to your foot for a more natural touch – along with all conditions control technology which allows for consistent control in dry or wet weather. the sole of the boot maintains the PEBAX nylon plate for support and flexibility.

when cold the boots appear black 

as the boots heat up a bright orange pattern emerges
