Incidentally, the SL’s come in soft ground (metal) studs, but these were generally restricted to the sponsored professionals. They can be found, but are very rare in new condition.
I guess having the world’s best player wearing the vapors, as opposed to the SL’s, means that nike can sell more of the standard boots as well!

I guess they'll start doing the rounds soon though... and as nice as the Lime / Citron ones are, eh, they're a little too over the top for me.<br/><br/>The carbon SL's, now your talking!<br/>I have no idea why he wouldn't want to wear them... somehow, I think Nike have the $ay in that! ;) thans for that Ulrik, I didn’t know Nani was wearing them already… I guess they’ll start doing the rounds soon though… and as nice as the Lime / Citron ones are, eh, they’re a little too over the top for me.

But Ronaldo didn't don these against West Brom. I like the citron ones though.<br/><br/>Btw, do you have any idea at all why he never wears the SL versions of the vapors i.e black(carbon)soles? I just find it weird. Seen Nani wear these ones before. But Ronaldo didn’t don these against West Brom. I like the citron ones though.

Btw, do you have any idea at all why he never wears the SL versions of the vapors i.e black(carbon)soles? I just find it weird.
