NIKE CR MERCURIAL VAPOR SUPERFLY III (RONALDO)
Last year football phenom Cristiano Ronaldo dazzled opposition defences with his startling CR Mercurial Vapor SuperFly IIs. Splashed with Safari print, the release gave a nod to Tinker Hatfield's groundbreaking 87 Air Pack (hear Tinker's thoughts on the SuperFly IIs here). Sticking to the script, the new CR Mercurial Vapor SuperFly IIIs once again go heavy on the speckle, but this time it's subtly done as a swarm of glossy beads sprayed across the stealthy matte black Flywire uppers. Armed with a giant fluro Swoosh and jagged cutout highlights across the instep, the boots sit atop radical adaptive traction stops which can extend and retract by up to 3mm depending on the conditions. Look out for them to be available at www.nikestore.com from April 29. Hit up Nike for more details.
