The new exclusive boots for Mbappé

We had no doubt that France would be among the favourites, as would Donatello's presence among the top scorers. However, we were surprised by the absence of an exclusive football boot designed for the French player, especially after seeing the one designed for CR7. Did you think Nike would let Kylian wear just any football boots? Well, they did! Until the last day of the group stage, we saw him wearing Nike Mercurial from the 'Generation Pack', the standard collection worn by most athletes sponsored by the American brand. 

Once the group stage is over, the knockout stages begin and the truly important matches start. This is where the true champions take to the field. In the qualifying match against Poland for the round of 16, the Blues' number ten wore exclusive boots that he will be the only player to wear from now on. When we think of exclusive football boots for a player like Mbappé, we imagine incredible designs and special colours that tell a story and represent the player. Well, forget all that. This time, Nike has merely added a few details to the boots Mbappé was already wearing, creating what could be termed a 'special edition' replica. I am particularly dissatisfied and quite disappointed with them, so my opinion is very negative. But let's move on and take a look at the features that set Mbappé's new Mercurials apart from the Generation Pack and justify their status as a special edition.

The French flag on the sole is undoubtedly the element that makes the difference. As expected, the player's logo is on the Dynamic Fit Collar, as well as the letter ‘M’, which is usually followed by the name of the boot model. This time, however, the player's surname has been added. The other elements of the boot remain unchanged from the previous model. What do you think about this?
