What Cristiano is able to achieve on the field is something that we felt was limitless. So we took that direction and focused on creating a highly luxurious finish fused with modern print and color choices," added Dekovic.</span></span></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioY_OHs-bSYY8IyiTJGvZ2Y2Ir-LiACAa9ZQZluZJhXy_pTJSA_-s1WDju9xusYO64atmVxPrPgjmqNcJc9Z9E2bIdFcQeQ0ogUWuB-5A0wVmlvOvaLIP0mm5cMqTcz7pggjBgF1RdC1k/s1600/nike-cr7-mercurial-ix-soccer-boot-d.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="456" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioY_OHs-bSYY8IyiTJGvZ2Y2Ir-LiACAa9ZQZluZJhXy_pTJSA_-s1WDju9xusYO64atmVxPrPgjmqNcJc9Z9E2bIdFcQeQ0ogUWuB-5A0wVmlvOvaLIP0mm5cMqTcz7pggjBgF1RdC1k/s640/nike-cr7-mercurial-ix-soccer-boot-d.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Mercurial IX boot features an all-over digital print of the Star Vela Supernova and includes a seven star path print, paying homage to Cristiano's shirt number. The supernova print is juxtaposed with a chrome swoosh flecked with silver fleck and a Blue Glow outline. </span></span><br /><blockquote><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“It’s great to collaborate with Nike. It gives me added confidence to know that they take my thoughts to create the best boot for me,” said Cristiano Ronaldo.  “In addition to the way the boots perform, it’s also cool when we create something that represents my personality and style of play.  It's a very special relationship." </span></span></blockquote><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Since its original launch over 10 years ago, the Mercurial has always stood out.
