Cristiano Ronaldo has accomplished a lot in his 19-year-spanning professional career. From five Ballon d’Or awards to the most goals scored in the UEFA Champions League (134), the 36-year-old has had one of the most impressive on-pitch careers the sport of football (soccer) has ever seen, but his work off the pitch has also been note-worthy. Most recently, the Portuguese superstar has lent his upscale taste to the Nike Air Force 1 By You “CR7” customization program.
The Swoosh’s partnership with Ronaldo began in 2003 when the then-18-year-old signed with Manchester United. The face of Nike Football’s Mercurial line, the current-Juventus forward has donned countless Nike Sportswear classics in his off-time throughout the years, including the timeless Air Force 1. For its “CR7” (Ronaldo’s initials and jersey number) edition, Bruce Kilgore’s design boasts a bevy of top-tier materials and accents – including smooth grain leather and gold mirrored chrome underlays that slightly resemble one-of-one versions made for the man himself. Color palettes are mostly limited to “White” and “Black” stylings, but “Chile Red” and “Total Orange” flair is available through certain components.
