We’ve been inundated with more soccer footwear than we can handle lately as we get set to enter World Cup season, but sometimes, a soccer release is just, well, a soccer release. For Erling Haaland, the star Norwegian striker who plays for Manchester City, the Phantom 6 has been his go-to cleat for some time now, and his latest signature colorway is a self-referential shoutout to a Nike soccer pack from the last decade.
The Nike Phantom 6 Low Elite AG-Pro Erling Haaland Hot Punch is a bright mix of lime green and hot pink that should look familiar to Nike Soccer diehards. The neon Hot Punch color combo is a direct callback to the Nike Soccer Radiation Flare Pack from 2017, which featured a Hypervenom 3 cleat in the same colorway that Haaland wore when he first signed with Nike.
