Update: Luka Modric became the most-capped Croatia player of all time with his start in a 1-0 win against Cyprus in a World Cup qualifier. He wore the special Nike Mercurial Vapor 14 football boots Nike created for him.
Real Madrid and Croatia midfielder Luka Modrić has been spotted wearing a customized pair of Nike Mercurial Vapor 14 cleats in Croatia national football team training.
Modric is set to become Croatia's player with most games ever
In fact, we are pretty sure that Nike created the special boots for Luka Modric as he is set to become Croatia's all-time record player, surpassing Darijo Srna and his 134 Caps (Modric has 133 caps currently).
Custom Nike Mercurial Vapor 14 'Nike By You' Luka Modrić Cleats - Croatia Edition
Inspired by the Croatia national team and its checkered kits, the custom Nike Mercurial Vapor 14 football boots from Luka Modrić are white and red with black applications.
What makes them unique are the upper and the sole plate, which feature a red / white checker design.
Tech-wise, Luka Modrić's Nike Mercurial Vapor 14 soccer cleats are the same as standard Mercurial football boots, with one difference. Luka Modric cut the collar in the front area of the boots, as he has been doing since almost three years.
We were not able to recreate the Luka Modrić 'Croatia' Nike Mercurial football boots using Nike's customization service 'Nike By You' as the checker option was not available. It might be possible in the future, however.
