Nike Sportswear took one of their soccer imprint’s most iconic boots of all time and transformed it for casual use. The Nike Air Max Mercurial R9 pays homage to the boot that legendary Brazilian soccer star Ronaldo spent most of the late 90s playing in and now the original colorway lands atop a simple Air Max base. An updated metallic silver fused upper sees Brazil-inspired accents of royal blue mesh and varsity maize piping for a look that will bring back vivid memories of El Phenomenon’s time spent dominating on the pitch. Get with us after the break for a better look at this remixed Mercurial pair and stay tuned for a release date right here on Sneaker News.
