The revolutionary anti-clog outsoles developed by Nike lead the american brand's innovations for 2016. A revolutionary addition launched back in March, 2016; you can take a closer look here: NIKE ANTI CLOG TRACTION.
At this point, you may be wondering why it has taken this long for professional players to shape up their boots with this technology. For a very simple reason, as this becomes specially adequate in the colder months, when the pitches are more likely to remain damp or even damaged due to adverse weather conditions. Now we have the perfect scenery to both test these boots and to take advantage from this revolutionary feature.
In this line, Sergio Ramos and Dani Carvajal already wore their anti-clog models at the Club World Cup final that took place last Sunday between Real Madrid and Kashima Antlers. The defenders had the opportunity to examine in first person the benefits from their habitual Nike Tiempo Legend, this time featuring the latest Nike innovation.
As seen in the picture, the outsole delivers as promised and no grass appears to be sticked to it, thanks to its lubricant effect. One important thing to bear in mind, though, is that this outsole performs best when being moisten on the first place.
On the other hand, Cristiano Ronaldo stunted on the final using his habitual mixed stud pattern from his Nike Mercurial Superfly; this outsole doesn't include the anti-clog technology whatsoever, and judging from the picture it seems that it doesn't perform as well on this matter, when tested in the same pitch and under the same conditions -as seen on the pictures above-. So we don't find it exaggerated to confirm that the anti-clog feature fullfils its function, to prevent mud from clogging the sole plate while providing the best traction possible in adverse playing conditions.
