Luka Modric Shows Off Odd Modified Nike Mercurial 360 2018 World Cup Boots
Update: Luka Modric wore the brand-new Nike Mercurial Vapor 360 2018 football boots in the Champions League final against Liverpool. However, his boots featured a remarkable difference to the standard edition of the first Flyknit Nike Mercurial Vapor soccer cleat - Modric cut the collar of his Nike Mercurial Vapor 360 boots (except the font area, creating an quite odd look).
Luka Modric's Custom Nike Mercurial Vapor 360 2018 World Cup Boots
Real Madrid's Luka Modric has not adopted the next-generation Nike Mercurial Vapor 360 football boot and laced up in the old last-gen Nike Mercurial Vapor XI cleats in Real Madrid's biggset matches. Now the Croatian midfielder has trained in odd-looking Nike Mercurial Vapor 360 2018 football boots.
Luka Modric has trained in his custom Nike Mercurial Vapor 360 football boots in all of Real Madrid's training sessions after the Bayern Munich Champions League clash so far, making it quite likely that he will also wear them on Sunday in El Clásico against Barcelona.

Up-close with Luka Modric's boots.
The obvious difference between Luka Modric's custom boot and the retail edition of the Nike Mercurial Vapor 360 2018 cleats is the collar area - it seems like that Luka Modric's cut the collar of his Nike Mercurial Vapor 360 boots, except of the font area, creating an quite odd look.
Apart from the tongue construction, Luka Modric's custom boots seem to be the same as the standard edition of the Nike Mercurial Vapor 360 2018 football boots.
