Cristiano Ronaldo's golden boots

The Portuguese player wins his fourth leading individual award and receives a new exclusive pair of boots from his sports sponsor, Nike.

12 December 2016 - Written by Fernando Ortiz

Cristiano Ronaldo is the new brilliant winner from the  FIFA Ballon d'Or 2016 award. A prize that is exclusively awarded by the France Football magazine, becoming the fourth leading individual award from the portuguese striker. After winning the Champions league with Real Madrid and last's summer Eurocup in France, where he was the captain of the portuguese national squad, all bets made him the winner, out from the list drawn up ty the FIFA technical committee.

However, the Ballon d'Or isn't the only prize that CR7 has been awarded with, as his sport sponsor, Nike, who signed him with a multimillion contract a month ago, has also granted him with a surpise that has already left us open-mouthed. An exclusive pair of boots in conmemoration of such a remarkable event, the Nike Mercurial CR7 Victórias, a name that goes in line with the 2016 achievements. 'One of my best years ever', as expressed by himself.

The Nike Mercurial CR7 Victórias have been purposely designed with a clean and elegant aesthetic, with an outstanding manufacturing and close attention to detail.

 The main colour chosen for this exclusive edition is white "Pure Platinum" that immediately draws attention, to represent CR7's flawless season.

Over the Flyknit upper the CR7 logo stands out, along with the characteristic Nike SWOOSH. Both of them are discreet enough, to contribute to the overall elegant design of such an iconic model.

One of the details that really stands out from this exlusive edition is in the back part of the heel where the name "VICTÓRIAS" is printed, as well as the serial number, as Nike has decided to limit the production of this model to 777 pairs in the whole world.

Question is, why 777 pairs? This should come as no surprise as number 7 has been related to the portuguese throughout almost his entire career, while 7 or 77 just seemed to fall short on football fans expectations. We don't have any doubts that these model will become sold out in a matter of minutes.

Finally, the golden outsole is a feature that hardly needs any presentation. It has been designed this way purposely, to resemblewealthness, happiness, luxury and vivacity, all of them describing the life from the highly acclaimed portuguese player.

Fútbol Emotion, as usual, will be able to provide some lucky costumers with these outstanding limited edition model, but bear in mind that they will probably be sold out in a blink of an eye, so you'd better be fast. They will be available on January 10 by clicking on the link: Nike Mercurial Football Boots.
