Pure Class: Diadora Brasil 'Made in Italy' Remake Boots Released
Worn by some of the greatest players in the 1980s and 90s, Diadora has brought back the iconic Brasil boot, 'Made in Italy'.
Diadora used to be one of the biggest football boot brands around back in the day, and even Ballon d'Or winners such as Roberto Baggio in '93 and George Weah in '95 wore the Italian brand's boots.
