CRISTIANO RONALDO has revealed his incredible new Nike Mercurial boots… and they’re certainly easy to spot.
The Real Madrid star, 33, showed off his latest pair of bright orange Mercurials on social media, complete with what appear to be leopard spots.
Ronaldo‘s new boots may in fact have been made in collaboration with Louis Vuitton, after he tagged their artistic director Kim Jones in his social media post.
Grinning to the camera, CR7 gives a 360-degree look at his new boots, captioning the clip: “My new boots. #BornMercurial @mrkimjones.”
Last month, Ronaldo showed off the “plain” bright orange version of the Nike Mercurials – and he seemed thrilled with them.
He revealed: “Hi guys, I’m so excited today. I got something very special to show you.
“As you know, I’m a Mercurial player. Today is the launch of the new Mercurial boots.
“Wow. I’ve never seen something like that before.”

Nike describe Ronaldo’s latest Mercurial boots – costing around £230 – as perfect for close-ball control and speed.

The footwear giants claim: “The Nike Mercurial Superfly 360 Elite Firm-Ground Football Boot wraps your foot for a perfect fit and exceptional ball touch, while the forefoot plate provides explosive acceleration on the pitch.”
Nike first launched the Mercurial range in 1998, with Brazilian star Ronaldo the poster boy.
Ronaldo then became the first player to have his own signature Mercurial shoe – the R9 – recently relaunched as the Mercurial Puro Fenomeno, now worn by PSG’s £198million star Neymar.
