Thierry Henry Debuts On LightSpray Prototype Football Boots
Thierry Henry has provided the best on-pitch look yet at On's upcoming football boots during Robert Pires' jubilee match at Stade Saint-Symphorien in Metz. The French legend, who serves as On's Director of Football, laced up an ultra-clean prototype pair of the brand's revolutionary silhouette as he took to the pitch alongside former teammates and fellow icons.
The prototype boots highlight On's cutting-edge LightSpray manufacturing method, which uses an automated robotic spraying technique to create a seamless, ultra-thin one-piece upper.
Bearing the development code ON-DCPT-KM210, the all-white boots feature contrasting black On branding on the integrated tongue, subtle LightSpray text along the lateral side, and a semi-translucent soleplate built for modern speed.
On's high-profile entry into the football market is gaining serious momentum, bolstered by the involvement of both Henry behind the scenes and Kylian Mbappé as a headline partner.
While Henry's appearance in Metz offers a glimpse of the technology in a real match setting, the brand's first retail football boots are scheduled to hit the market in 2027.
