This image shows the latest Nike MercurialX Proximo football boots.
Based on the unique silhouette of the MercurialX Proximo II, the new colorway fades from black in the rear to grey at front. The sole consists of a solid white midsole and a partly translucent grape outsole, with the latter color also being used for the lateral MercurialX branding.
Aiming to bridge the gap between pitch and street soccer, the Nike MercurialX Proximo II brings the technologies of the advanced Mercurial Superfly V model, worn by players like Cristiano Ronaldo, to the small-sided game. A special grip texture on the inside was added to further improve ball control capabilities.

Portuguesa 2026 Third Kit Released - Tribute to Portugal Ahead of 2026 World Cup
Brazilian club Associação Portuguesa de Desportos, commonly known as Portuguesa, has officially launched its new third kit for the 2026 season. Produced by technical sponsor Joma, the new uniform pays direct homage to the Portuguese national team, celebrating the club's deep historical roots as Portugal prepares to compete in the upcoming 2026 World Cup.
The new Portuguesa 2026 third jersey closely mirrors the classic look of the Portuguese national team, featuring a vibrant crimson red base enhanced by subtle jacquard detailing that provides a sense of movement to the fabric. The shirt is structured with a classic polo collar adorned with red and white edging and a green front point insert. The sleeves remain red with contrasting green underarm panels, while the cuffs match the collar's red and white trim.
Further solidifying the international tribute, the official coat of arms of Portugal is prominently displayed on the nape of the neck above the white player numbering. The alternative uniform is completed by green shorts and red socks, finalizing the classic Portuguese color scheme.
The kit is set to make its on-pitch debut this Saturday, May 16th, in a match against Água Santa.
