Madrid's Asensio Surprises Boot Experts By Cutting Off Collar Of Nike Mercurial Superfly 360 Boots
Real Madrid's Marco Asensio has posted pictures on his Instagram channel today that reveal that he is wearing cut-off Nike Mercurial Superfly 360 football boots.
Asensio Wears Cut-Off Nike Mercurial Superfly 360 Boots Instead Of Using Nike Mercurial Vapor 360
Marco Asensio has cut off the collar of the Nike Mercurial Superfly 360 football boots, as the picture reveals. His boot is the same as the standard Nike Mercurial Superfly 360 apart from the cut-off collar.
Standard low-cut Nike Mercurial Vapor 360
It is quite strange that Marco Asensio cut off the collar of his Nike Mercurial Superfly 7 football boot. He could have achieved a similar effect if he would have taken the low-cut Nike Mercurial Vapor 360.
He has been worn the boots in a few matches already
In case your are wondering, Asensio's second picture features the writing "Tobillo loco" (that means crazy ankle).

Adidas Launches Special 26-27 Dog Kit for Real Madrid
Adidas has released a dedicated kit for dogs linked to Real Madrid. The designs adapt the club's new 2026-2027 home kit.
The collection lets fans outfit their pets to match the team's look. It builds on Adidas's growing range of pet products, including similar jerseys created for select national teams ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
Arsenal Sends Kit Without Adidas Logo & Arsenal Crest
Arsenal shirt collector @NathanPanter_52 has posted images of the 26-27 home shirt bought for £136 that is missing both the Adidas logo and the club crest. The item is an official product - it is very uncommon that something like that happens.
LEAKED: Adidas to Upgrade Leeds United to Local Elite Tier
As spotted by @theadelites, a new customisation option on the Leeds United club shop website allows fans to chosse between replica and authentic kits (added by error too early). This probably means that Adidas has upgraded the club from the B Premium tier to one of the Local A Elite tiers. The move gives fans the option to select authentic kits built around advanced Climacool+ performance technology.
Reports from February indicated similar upgrades for clubs including Ajax and Lyon ahead of the 2026-27 season, but Adidas apparently postponed/scrapped these. Adidas previously already upgraded British teams Celtic, Aston Villa, and Newcastle United.
A quick color analysis of Newcastle's 26-27 home kit. It are not the colors that make this shirt bad, unlike the Madrid 26-27 kit.
