In
honor of a memorable season, Nike celebrates one of the world’s greatest
footballers with a new, limited edition Mercurial. The Mercurial Vapor IX CR7 Special Edition
commemorates Cristiano Ronaldo's remarkable season, in which he averaged more
than one goal a game; became the quickest player in his club’s history to reach
200 goals for the club; and was officially recognized as the best player in the
world.
The
boot features a clean and simple white upper — a nod to Ronaldo's affinity for
white boots — and a special gold plate. Premium detailing and a numbered heel
highlight the limited run of this special boot.
“Cristiano
Ronaldo is such an exceptional player, and we wanted to celebrate all his
accomplishments this season with a unique boot to honor his amazing success,”
said Denis Dekovic, Design Director for Nike Football Footwear.
Ronaldo
will wear the new Mercurial Vapor IX CR7 Special Edition on April 16.
