The correct name of the edition is not "Montblanc Nike" but "Montblanc Marinière for Colette". The striped pattern quotes the then jersey of the French national football team, and the blue corresponds to the colour of the Colette logo. As part of the campaign, the Paris fashion boutique Colette invited several brands (e.g. Longchamp, Montblanc) to reinterpret one of their leading products. The fountain pen was made of white Meissen porcelain and limited to 5 pieces at 2500 euros each.
