No More Hypervenom? Adriano Switches to Nike Tiempo Legend Boots
Nov 14, 2015, by Chris
FC Barcelona full-back Adriano has become the next player to switch from the Nike Hypervenom Boots to another silo after various players such as Aubameyang, Jordan Ibe, Isco, Kovacic and Mandzukic also ditched Nike's agility boot.
Adriano laced up in the high-cut Nike Hypervenom Phantom Boots at the start of the season, while he debuted the low-cut version of the boots in FC Barcelona's Copa del Rey match against CF Villanovense on October 28.

Adriano wore a non-modified version of the Anthracite and Volt Nike Tiempo Legend 5 Boots. Featuring a Kangaroo leather upper, the Nike Tiempo Legend Soccer Boot is made for ultimate control and comfort.
However, it's not certain if Adriano will complete the silo move. It's well possible that he will switch back to the Hyper Grape Nike Hypervenom Phinish Boots in a similar fashion as Thiago Silva, who also returned to his previous boots (Nike Magista Obra) after he laced up in the Nike Tiempo in some training sessions.
He didn't like the collar, and he apparently also doesn't like the low-cut version of the boots. Do you think Adriano will complete the silo switch? Let us know in the comments section below, and read more about Nike's problem with the Dynamic Fit collar.

T90-Inspired Nike Barclays WSL 26-27 Ball Released
Nike and the Women's Super League have officially revealed the official match ball for the 26-27 Barclays WSL and WSL2 seasons.

The design features vibrant multi-coloured rings and graphic lines in red, pink, blue, and black against a white base. These accents are arranged to create a subtle strobe effect when spinning in flight, aiding visibility for players on the pitch. The Barclays WSL version features a gold Nike Swoosh inside the signature circular ring, while the WSL2 edition showcases a silver Swoosh paired with bright pink detailing.
Underneath the graphics, the ball utilizes Nike Control technology with debossed grooves and engineered paneling designed to deliver stable aerodynamics and consistent touch in all conditions. The new ball will be used across all 26-27 WSL, WSL2, and domestic cup matches.
