CUSTOM NIKE MERCURIAL VAPOR SUPERFLY "APOLLO"

Created: April 2016

As a kid, I always had a strong admiration for space. I would gaze up at the moon, stars, and galaxies in awe trying to imagine what it was like out there. 

I was just getting started with MCEW Football and had received the "Urban-Lilac" Superfly IV's from Soccer.com. They seemed a little plain, so I decided to incorporate a distinctive design inspired by the first manned mission to the moon, Apollo 11. 

I first added a white layer and then threw some black paint splatter. The goal was to create something that has never been seen before- similar to how the Astronauts would feel stepping on the moon for the first time. 

This custom was also the first "professional" edit I had ever made and sparked my interest in producing viral soccer videos. I strongly encourage you to watch it.
