Nike Mercurial Cryoshot Street-Style Shoes -Mercurial Ronaldo's 1998 Inspired
Nike is introducing the Cryoshot line to transform some of its iconic football boots into everyday lifestyle sneakers. One of the first models adapts the classic Mercurial Vapor R9, the boot worn by Ronaldo during the 1998 World Cup.
The design preserves the original boot's upper while adding a transparent TPU midsole housing that reveals the stud pattern underneath. This approach draws from cryogenic preservation concepts to create a modern street-ready shoe that honors its on-pitch roots.

The colorway uses Varsity Royal and Varsity Maize with metallic silver accents along with black and sail details. It carries the style code IQ8160-400 and will retail for $210.
