Portuguese legend Luis Figo stood out on the field wearing the iconic Nike Total 90 III football boots.
Klose laced up in the classic Adidas Copa Mundial
The Nike Total 90 Laser III boots are renowned for their innovative combination of leather, nylon/synthetics, and plastic. They are considered the most iconic boots of the Nike Total 90 Laser series. These third-generation football boots boast a specially designed upper made of premium lightweight Teijin synthetic leather that is known for its durability. The side lacing system, along with the alternate eyelet holes, creates a cleaner surface for kicking.
Two other famous retired players, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Robert Pires, wore the latest high-end football boots from Nike and Puma, respectively. Meanwhile, in big contrast, Germany's Klose donned the classic Adidas Copa Mundial.
What makes Klose's boot choice remarkable is that he had been sponsored by Nike for the majority of his career. Klose even was not allowed to wear his Nike shoes for Germany due to a controversial boot deal until around 2007. However, after the end of his career as a coach, he switched back to the Copa Mundial he did not like to wear as a player.
Other football boots that graced the pitch were the Nike Premier III in a classic white/red colorway, the 11pro model of Kroos but in the 14-15 black colorway, a blackout Copa Mundial, and the Adidas F50 Adizero IV from the Fall 2013 "Brazil World Cup Heat" Samba Pack.
