While Nike Discontinue Leather, Charly Release New Leather Football Boots, and It Brings Back Memories of Nike's Tiempo
Apr 25, 2023, by Chris
From summer 2023, Nike will stop the use of kangaroo leather for their football boots, which mainly affects the Tiempo silo. Now Mexican brand Charly have launched their latest leather soccer cleat, and it could be a good alternative to Tiempo aficionados. Introducing the Charly Legendario 2.0 football boots.
The Charly Legendario soccer boots are endorsed by Mexican national team players Hector Moreno and Greta Espinoza.
It brings me back to the days of playing when I was younger
"These cleats are the real deal. Charly really created something special with this new Legendario 2.0. It brings me back to the days of playing when I was younger. The full grain leather really holds up well on the pitch,” said Mexican National Team soccer star Hector Moreno.

Check out the new Charly Legendario 2.0 boots below.
The new Charly Legendario 2.0 football boots have a "full-grain leather" upper. Charly do not mention which exact type of leather is used, but we expect it to be cow leather as it is "locally sourced" (and the boots are produced in Leon, Mexico).
Indeed, the whole upper and stitching of the Charly Legendario 2.0 2023 football boots remind us of the Nike Tiempo Legend 4 and 5 football boots, which are players' favorites back then.
The full-grain leather is used from the toe box to the heel cup. In addition, the Charly Legendario 2023 soccer cleats feature a breathable synthetic lining and a single-layer leather tongue.
Meanwhile, the TPU sole plate has a virtually identical stud configuration to the Nike Mercurial Superfly 6. This surely can't be a bad thing, as it is already top-level approved by Nike's best players.
Design-wise, the Charly Legendario 2023 football boots are very classic. The Legendario 2.0 is available in white, black, red, and gold with black.

Italian Serie C side Novara FC and technical partner Erreà have officially released the club's new third kit for the 26-27 season. Following the release of their traditional azzurro home strip earlier in the summer, the new third shirt delivers a stealthy, understated alternative aesthetic for the current campaign.
The Erreà Novara 26-27 third jersey is built on a solid black base and adopts a full monochrome palette. Instead of the standard club crest, the chest features Novara's historic crossed shield rendered in clean white embroidery. Erreà's logos on the right chest and shoulders, alongside long-time front-of-shirt sponsor Igor Gorgonzola and secondary partners Cristanini Viaggi and Intesa Pour Homme, are similarly applied in monochrome white.
Completing the strip, matching black shorts and black socks with white accents and crest detailing round off the uniform for the 26-27 Serie C campaign.
