Nike's new all-black Colin Kaepernick jersey that commemorates four years since he first took a knee during the national anthem sold out in less than a minute, the sports apparel company told CBS News on Friday. The kneeling protests inspired by Kaepernick are meant to bring attention to police brutality and racial injustice.

Nike unveiled the monochromatic Icon Jersey 2.0 for $150 on Thursday morning – and it sold out within seconds. The company said on its website that the number 7 jersey pays homage to Kaepernick's kneeling protests and it has "become an iconic symbol for progress and positive change."

Kaepernick, who wore the number as a member of the San Francisco 49ers, talked about the significance of the jersey in an Instagram post.

"Four years ago, I took a knee to protest against systemic racism and social injustice. It was that day that the number on my jersey would come to represent something greater than football, something greater than me," he wrote on Thursday. "Since then, the number 7 jersey has become a symbol for advancing the liberation and well-being of Black & Brown communities. Thank you for staying True."
