Aug 8, 2019, by Chris
Around one month ago, a film about German and Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos was launched. The movie starts with a scene in which he scrubs his classic iconic Adidas 11pro football shoes, showing off how important they are for him. In the days of the release of the movie, Toni Kroos revealed some details about him and his football boot witness.
Toni Kroos Needs Perfectly Cleaned, White Boots
Toni Kroos is famous for wearing the same six-year old Adidas 11pro football shoes since ever the were released, in early 2013. He only trained a few times in other boots, but he never wore another boot than the White / Sky Blue Adidas 11pro football shoes in an official match since 2013.
"My football boots are the most important thing when I go out on the pitch. I have to play in white shoes, that's a little tick of mine. Even the smallest bit of dirt disturbs me. That's why I clean and care for my shoes myself."
In fact, Kroos' boots used to be very dirty until some time ago, but since a few months they are always perfectly cleaned.

Burnley have officially terminated their front-of-shirt partnership with prop trading company Finotive One just weeks after announcing the deal. UK automotive retailer Vertu Motors has stepped up to become the club's new Official Front of Shirt Principal Partner for the 26-27 season, covering the men's, women's, and academy teams.

Supporters also have the option to return their shirts for a full refund or exchange them for the updated version.
