For the first time since the start of this series, the 2018 Nike Mercurial Superfly VI CR7 soccer boots will be inspired by Ronaldo's national team career and quite possibly the Euro 2016 win.

Tied in nicely with the Portugal 2018 World Cup kits and inspired by the Euro 2016 winning teal jersey color-wise, the boots feature gold Swooshes. A specially designed logo can be seen towards the back of the Nike Mercurial Superfly 6 Cristiano Ronaldo cleats and will also appear on the inside neck of the World Cup kits. A black Dynamic Fit collar rounds off the look.

Tech-wise, the Nike Mercurial Superfly Cristiano Ronaldo Chapter 6 Pride of Portugal 2018 football boots are the first CR7 signature edition to be based on the new Nike Mercurial Superfly VI 360 cleat model. They introduce a number of key changes but retain most of what the previous generations stand out.

The boots have a one-piece Flyknit upper with a slightly lower Dynamic Fit collar and are built on the Flyknit Ultra model that was debuted in Fall 2017. The 3-D upper structure that has been compared to what could be found on Adidas' X 16 model, is one of the most prominent new features of the Nike Mercurial Superfly 6.
