Argentina Rugby Player Debuts Unreleased Nike Tiempo Legend VI Boots
In an interesting and unpredicted move, Argentine player Juan Martín Hernández debuted the all-new Nike Tiempo Legend VI Football Boots in today's Rugby World Cup game against Namibia. Thanks to Tommy JR Payne for the hint.
Nike Tiempo Legend VI Pure Platinum | On-pitch Debut
Hernández is seen scoring Argentina's first try versus Namibia wearing the stunning Nike Tiempo Legend 6.
Hernández, who previously had been wearing Nike Tiempo Legend Cleats from the Summer 2015 Silver Storm Pack, laced up in the unreleased Pure Platinum Nike Tiempo Legend VI Boots launch colorway, almost two month before the scheduled unveiling.
The Tiempo Legend 6 is Nike's highly-anticipated update of its heritage silo, introducing a totally new support skeleton in order to reduce stitching and increase longevity. For the debut paint job, Nike combines an understated light grey upper and black accents with striking orange details such as the outline to the bold lateral Swoosh.

Premium Material Returns to the World Cup Champions Badge
Alongside the second star above the crest, Spain officially unveiled a new 3D embossed World Champions badge during their recent 3-2 victory over England in the UEFA Nations League. This badge previously appeared on Spain's jersey after their 2026 FIFA World Cup triumph.
Compared to the heat-applied plastic version seen on Argentina's kits, the new badge from Cromotransfer offers a significantly more premium look, featuring an embossed surface and a multi-layered structure. Before that, Adidas has increasingly shifted to pre-applying tournament and champions badges directly in its manufacturing facilities.
However, this upgrade will be exclusive to the authentic player-version jerseys. The fan-version replica shirts will continue to feature the standard heat-transferred plastic badge.
Big thanks to @whatthekit_x for the collage.
