However, between now and then, the six-time Ballon d’Or winner has sported some iconic boots such as the <a href=”https://www.unisportstore.com/blog/10993-nike-mercurial-vapor-xv-r9-chrome-just-15-pairs-worldwide/”>Nike Mercurial Vapor “Chrome”</a> — which he wore during the early stages of his career — and the <a href=”https://www.bootsfinder.co.uk/product-page/nike-mercurial-vapor-sl-fg-orange-peel-size-uk-7-5”>”Orange Peel”</a> iteration of the same boot which he wore to smash in his first-ever Manchester United hat trick at home to Newcastle in 2008.</p><p>Now, these newest boots come in a “White/Concord/Medium Blue/Metallic Copper” colorway and take inspiration from the Portuguese icon to show what can be achieved when one dedicates themselves to the craft of the beautiful game. Also designed with a copper trim and enamel-like coating, each speckle of detail represents the culmination Ronaldo’s legacy, with each graphic symbolizing how CR7 carries the story of his boots — along with the heritage of his nation — to the World Cup for the fifth time in his career.</p><p>Rounding off the design, the boots are also loaded with a football-specific Zoom Air unit, allowing players to maintain high speeds on the pitch throughout each match. Tri-star studs are also used to provide multi-directional traction with every step — this allows ballers to change directions quickly and confidently. Flyknit is used to wrap the ankle and the upper is made from Vaporposite+, which uses a grippy, grid mesh for optimal ball control at high speeds.</p><p>You can take a look at the new Nike Zoom Mercurial Superfly 9 Elite CR7 FG above and it is available on the <a href=”https://www.nike.com/gb/t/zoom-mercurial-superfly-9-elite-cr7-fg-football-boot-XwSmW9/DQ5293-182″>official Nike website</a> now.</p><p>In other news, <a href=”https://hypebeast.com/2022/11/nike-air-max-95-3-lions-fifa-world-cup-release-info”>take a look at the Air Max 95 “3 Lions.”</a></p><p><a href=”https://hypebeast.com/2022/11/cristiano-ronaldo-nike-zoom-mecurial-superfly” title=”Follow Cristiano Ronaldo’s Career With Nike’s Zoom Mercurial Superfly 9 Elite CR7 FG” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener”>Click here to view full gallery at HYPEBEAST</a></p><p> <a href=”http://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad/jump?iu=/1015938/Hypebeast_RSS_300x250_Rectangle&sz=300×250&c=34342″ target=”_blank” rel=”noopener”> <img src=”http://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad/ad?iu=/1015938/Hypebeast_RSS_300x250_Rectangle&sz=300×250&c=34342″ /> </a></p>
