Nike Phantom Ultra Venom: A Nostalgic Fusion of Hypervenom and Flyknit

The “Ultra” designation in Nike football boots often hints at future silo developments. From the 2017 Nike Flyknit Ultra to the Air Zoom Ultra that preceded the Zoom Mercurial, these models signal what is to come. The latest example, the Nike Phantom Ultra Venom, revives the beloved Hypervenom upper with a Flyknit construction.
A Return to the Flyknit Ultra Formula
If the 2017 Flyknit Ultra reimagined the Mercurial Vapor in a full Flyknit upper, the Phantom Ultra Venom does the same for the Nike Hypervenom Phantom 3. The result combines one of the most praised uppers with a classic plate that players have long appreciated.
Upper Design and Feel
The shell is identical to the 2017 Flyknit Ultra, but uses the Hypervenom silo’s signature weave. Instead of foam pods across the striking area, the Phantom Ultra Venom features exposed thread that mimics the original pattern. After a few uses, the upper softens and becomes exceptionally comfortable, delivering the sensation of wearing a thick sock.
Grip and Hold
Because the material is exposed and lacks a protective coating, the grip is outstanding. These are among the most high-grip boots currently available in this style.
Toe Box and Plate Performance
The toe box is slightly wider than the 2017 model, thanks to the Hyperreactive plate borrowed from the Nike Hypervenom Phantom 3. This plate combines semi-conical and laminated studs, providing excellent responsiveness and a very lightweight feel.
Width and Comfort
The lightness and width of the plate make the boot feel roomier, more comfortable, and adaptable to a wider range of foot shapes compared to its 2017 counterpart. The striking, fit, and comfort sensations remain the same. Among current boots, the closest comparable model is the Nike Phantom GT II.
Conclusion: A Glimpse of What’s Next?
The Phantom Ultra Venom brings back the Hypervenom silo—a favourite among Swoosh fans—paired with the iconic Flyknit Ultra upper. As a special edition that sold out quickly, it raises questions: Is Hypervenom making a comeback? Will future releases use this same material? The coming months will reveal the Swoosh brand’s next move.
