Park Perfect: The Fall 2015 Nike F.C. Collection
Inspired by the memorable “Park Life” football advertisement, Nike F.C. celebrates grassroots football.
Gigantic stadiums are nice — as are perfect grass, referees, regulations and tactics.
Nike F.C commemorates this devotion with the Fall 2015 Nike F.C. collection, which also nods to the classic 1997 Nike advertisement “Park Life.” Made to celebrate the league’s commitment to the beautiful game, the ad places the era’s superstar strikers, including Ian Wright, on London’s iconic Hackney Marshes alongside faithful weekly players.
Items from the Fall 2015 Nike F.C. collection are now available at select Nike retailers and on nike.com/nikefc.

and his dog rather than 100,000 fervent fans, but at Sunday league
football, a grassroots English institution, the stakes are the same.
