Nike To Discontinue Nike Tiempo Boots - April Fools!

It was a prank. Nike will continue the iconic Nike Tiempo Legend Boots in 2016, and will launch the much-awaited Nike Tiempo Legend VI Football Boots in December 2015. April fools!

It's over. After more than 20 years, Nike will stop making the widely popular Nike Tiempo Legend Soccer Cleats, according to exclusive Footy Headlines information. What's the future of Nike's leather football boots?

On July 17, 1994, Brazil and Italy battled for the 1994 FIFA World Cup in Pasadena, California. While all players shared the same dream of winning the title, ten players laced up in the same soccer boot - the Nike Tiempo Premier. Since then, the Nike Tiempo has become a football icon.

Nike to stop making the Nike Tiempo after more than 20 years

Last year, Nike celebrated the 20-years anniversary of the iconic Nike Tiempo Soccer Cleats with a limited edition Nike Tiempo XX Collection. The Nike Tiempo XX Boot Collection included a special Nike Tiempo Legend V Boot and a Nike Tiempo '94 lifestyle shoe.

In fact, the last new generation of the Nike Tiempo Legend Cleat was revealed in December 2013, when Nike launched the Nike Tiempo Legend V Boots featuring a premium Kangaroo leather upper. In early 2015, Nike revealed the classy Nike Tiempo Legend V Premium Boots with a classical fold-over tongue, exclusively made for Francesco Totti.

Nike to release leather Nike Hypervenom, Magista and Mercurial

As Nike will discontinue the Nike Tiempo Legend Boots, Nike will release leather versions for the cutting-edge Nike Hypervenom 2, Nike Magista Obra and Nike Mercurial Superfly Soccer Cleats. With the new leather cleats, Nike offers players a leather boot matching their style of play, and give players a greater selection of leather boots.

Some weeks ago, it already emerged that Adidas will stop making the Adidas F50 Adizero, Predator, Adipure and Nitrocharge Boots.
