Ultra-rare Nike Mercurial Superfly IV ‘Natural Diamond’ CR7 Signature model, match worn by one of the greatest footballers in history, Cristiano Ronaldo, during his Ballon d’Or-winning 2015/16 season with Real Madrid CF.
- The 2015/16 campaign stands as one of the most defining in Ronaldo’s legendary career — he led Real Madrid to their 11th UEFA Champions League title (La Undécima), scoring a staggering 16 goals in just 12 matches and being crowned Player of the Tournament.
- Later that year, he captained Portugal to their historic UEFA Euro 2016 victory, before being awarded his fourth Ballon d’Or, cementing his status as one of football’s all-time greats.
- This pair represent the signature CR7 model worn exclusively by Cristiano himself, as Nike never permitted any other athlete to wear this edition on the pitch.
- Authenticity fully guaranteed with the BC Boots UK Certification Package.
- Player Modifications & Customisation Details:
- Specially custom made to measure at Nike’s world-renowned Montebelluna Athlete Services factory in Italy, tailored precisely to Cristiano’s anatomical and performance specifications.
- Unique Dynamic Fit Collar — Ronaldo’s pairs were fitted with a completely bespoke, lower-cut version that was thinner, more elasticised, and less restrictive than the retail variant, offering him a closer and freer fit around the ankle.
- Toe boxes have been significantly raised to accommodate Ronaldo’s distinctive foot shape, a signature adjustment seen throughout his career-issued footwear.
- Custom reinforced heel counters built into each boot for improved structure and stability under explosive sprint loads.
- Each boot features embossed personalisation of the player’s initials and number, ‘CR7’, to the medial side of the upper.
- Due to their bespoke construction, these feature no internal size labels — instead, the player’s custom foot last (mould) ID number is handwritten inside each boot by the Montebelluna craftsmen.
- FG full-length carbon fibre soleplate configuration consistent with Ronaldo’s match preference, designed to optimise traction and acceleration on elite natural grass surfaces.
- Colourway: Deep Royal Blue / Metallic Silver / Racer Blue — the official ‘Natural Diamond’ finish celebrating Ronaldo’s rise from humble beginnings to global stardom.
