Nike Mercurial Superfly

Yes that right chumps… the Droog and CRon were wearing unmarked versions of the Nike Mercurial Superfly’s in training earlier this year and Daniel Alavez even wore them in a match against Villareal, but I’ve been a little reluctant to write about them, mainly for the fact that now I truly believe Nike are taking [...]

Charcoal/Orange/Silver

So the latest installment of the Nike Vapor cleats is this fairly modest colourway of charcoal, orange and silver… they’ll go perfect with my gold plated, diamond encrusted shin-pads! I’m a modest kind’a guy you know.
So it turns out Alexandre Pato will be wearing these shortly, but I’d suspect sooner rather than later of course, that C.Ronaldo will be running around in them… and I’m even going to go as far as saying that he might wear them against West Brom tonight.

Alright, we get it! Nike have discovered the Hue/Saturation button in Photoshop and now they’re pumping out colors quicker than you can actually guess what’s gonna be next. These lime beauties were the latest ones doing the rotation during this weeks Champions League matches and they’re not too shabby… well not as hideous as the [...]

I’m a big fan of animation, massive even… I love crafty commercials and I live, breath and eat football… so this latest campaign by the clever minds over at Nike appeals to me on so many levels. What throws me off a little is their need for fancy coloured boots, as I laid claim here [...]

Nice boots! Do they make them for men?Finally, Nike answered Nani’s call for a prettier boot and he can now do his ballet moves in the corner, in conform AND style!Seriously though… what are they thinking? The only legitimate reason I can come up with, besides what I already mentioned above, is that they’re preparing [...]

Eh… FIFPro Player of the Year… sound’s more like a video game challenge than an acclaimed award. Anyway kudos to Ronaldo, he had a ripper year… the only thing I’m really impressed about though, is the amount of different coloured boots he has worn since this time last year and the one’s he is wearing [...]

It’s been a week to the day since we last saw Ronaldo take the field with his green Nike Mercurial Vapor’s and it got me wondering if Nike were going to give anyone else a pair of coloured weapons to promote for the finals? I don’t know the answer to that and only time will [...]

…in the MothaF*ing house!! That’s right peeps, you’re eyes are not deceiving you and just when you thought they wouldn’t be shown again, the Mercurial SL’s have appeared from obscurity to grace us with their presence… and hopefully it’s not for one night only. The heads over at Nike are probably grinning with glee in [...]

The Nike Mercurial Vapor IV SL, a by-product of the Nike Mercurial SL, have finally hit the feet Cristiano Ronaldo and will soon be hitting stores as well. Weighing in at 210 grams, these are by far the lightest boot out on the market at the moment. Designed to be fast, there’s no wonder why [...]

Both Adidas and Nike have launched new national team kits for a bunch of teams they sponsor, but most prominently for the teams that’ll be seeing some action in Austria and Switzerland next year.Among some of the surprises, the Netherlands and Turkey will now have turquoise in their away strips, which I rate highly. Adidas [...]

Lost in obscurity over the last couple of weeks, the Nike Mercurials haven’t really been in the public eye lately; up until a few days ago that is, when they re-surfaced on the feet of who else but Cristiano Ronaldo, for the new Untouchables campaign. Even though they’ve officially been released, the boots still haven’t [...]

Finally, the world’s fastest boots have been unleashed into the world! They’ve been in the works since 2004 and are made up of a number of high tech components by the best craftsmen or their respective materials. I can’t wait to see them in action against their unsuspecting Premier League opponents and tonight Manchester United [...]

Nike has marketed these carbon rippers as ‘fast boots for fast players’. My question is, how much faster could someone like Cristiano Ronaldo possibly run!? His pace and featherweight feet make him one of the quickest players in the world at the moment… what kind of chance do defenders have in keeping up with him [...]

For my entire life I have wondered the face of this planet aimlessly reading and writing about guys that get paid the big bucks to design garbage like this and this. On one fateful afternoon though, I was going about my day-to-day business, dreaming of a time when black football boots reined supreme and contemplating [...]
