Nike Mercurial Superfly V Cristiano Ronaldo Chapter 5 'Cut to Brilliance' Boots Released
Sep 20, 2017, by Pat
The new Nike Mercurial Superfly V CR7 Cut to Brilliance football boots have been revealed this morning. Inspired by Cristiano Ronaldo's brilliance on the pitch, the Nike Mercurial Superfly CR7 Chapter 5 cleats are set to be available from September 29 2017.
In the summer of 2009, Cristiano Ronaldo joined his current club for what was then a world record transfer fee of £80 million (€94 million). Ronaldo scored in his first game with the club and hasn’t stopped scoring since, becoming the fastest to score league goals at every imaginable milestone: 50, 150, 200, 250 and counting.
“When I arrived, there were many people around — not just inside the stadium, but outside too,” recalls Ronaldo. “It was an unbelievable day and I felt the power of Madrid.” “The details of the white boots — the color, the diamonds — they are beautiful; they are cool,” says Ronaldo. “I am sure, 100 percent, people are gonna like it.”

Nike has chosen 'Blue Tint' as the base color for the Nike Mercurial Superfly CR Chapter 5 17-18 boots. A very light shade of blue, it is paired with white and black accents to create the diamond theme of the Chapter 5 Nike Mercurial Superfly Cristiano Ronaldo cleats.
As always, the iconic CR7 logo is visible on the instep of the Blue Tint Nike Mercurial Superfly V Chapter 5 soccer boots. Finally, multicolor Flywire strings along the sides of the boots offer contrast and a truly unique look.
Made for wingers, the Nike Mercurial Superfly V soccer cleats have a one-piece Flyknit upper with a Dynamic Fit collar and Flywire strings for improved lockdown.

In the grand scheme of things, Nike is nearing the conclusion of its massive, seven-chapter series of Cristiano Ronaldo Nike Mercurial boots with Chapter 5. Chapter 7 should be launched in late 2018.
The inner sole and the gym bag read: "Fastest to score 50, 100, 150, 200, 250 League Goals, First to Score Against Every Team".
The Nike Mercurial Superfly V Cristiano Ronaldo Chapter 5 Cut to Brilliance boots will be released on September 29. The RRP will be the same as usual, slightly above the USD 300 (EUR 290, GBP 250) of regular Superfly V colorways.

What If Adidas Made Barcelona Kits?
Kit collector and insider @memorabilia1899 has shared an intriguing concept imagining how FC Barcelona would look if Adidas were the club's technical sponsor. Despite Barcelona having a long-term partnership with Nike extended through 2038, the fantasy of the German sportswear giant designing the Blaugrana's kits continues to spark conversation among football shirt enthusiasts.
The Adidas Barcelona concept leans heavily into retro aesthetics, combining classic vertical red and blue stripes with the iconic Trefoil logo on the chest. A dark blue polo collar, styled with 'BARÇA 1899' detailing, is paired with gold-orange accents seen across the Three Stripes on the shoulders and the centered Spotify sponsor logo. The full look is completed by navy blue shorts and matching socks.
Would you like to see Adidas manufacture Barcelona kits in the future, or does Nike remain the perfect fit for the Catalan giants?
