Just hours after the limited edition Colin Kaepernick jersey by Nike hit the shelves, it officially sold out, according to a new report.
According to Fox Business, the former quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers teamed up with the sportswear company to design the limited edition shirt. Called the “Kaepernick Icon Jersey,” the all-black uniform features No. 7, the number Kaepernick wore as a member of the San Francisco 49ers. The jersey retails for $150. A product page for the Kaepernick jersey said it is sold out and currently unavailable for orders.
““The Kaepernick Icon Jersey is a celebration of those who seek truth in their communities, and those who remain true to themselves. Built with Dri-FIT technology, the jersey is made to keep you dry and comfortable wherever you go,” a description on Nike’s website says.”
The jersey came out just one day after Colin Kaepernick settled his collusion case against the NFL. According to Kaep, the NFL colluded with the 32 team owners to keep him off the field after he took a stand (well, a knee) against police brutality. While the former QB was able to kick off the Black Lives Matter movement as a result of his actions, he hasn't been able to play ball in quite a few years.
The terms of the settlement were bound by a confidentiality agreement, and neither Colin Kaepernick nor the NFL released any statements regarding the nature of the settlement (though there have been some conflicting reports about it).
