- Headline Features:
- Nike Phantom GX Elite match issued to & dual hand signed by one of the most technically gifted and decorated midfielders in Premier League history, Kevin De Bruyne.
- Match issued to the player for fixtures during the 2023/24 season with Manchester City, a season that cemented the club’s place in English football history as they became the first team ever to win four consecutive Premier League titles.
- De Bruyne was instrumental in this record-breaking campaign, contributing 26 goal involvements in just 28 appearances across all competitions, further solidifying his status as one of the finest playmakers of the modern era.
- This pair are an exceptionally rare dual hand signed issue, with each boot bearing a beautifully clear, unhurried autograph — an extremely uncommon occurrence for Kevin De Bruyne, who very rarely signs boots, let alone both.
- Created bespoke for KDB in the combination seen here of the Dynamic Fit Collar variant with the Anti-Clog soleplate – a specification which was not available to the public.
- Authenticity fully guaranteed with the BC Boots UK Certificate of Authenticity.
- Player Modifications & Personalisation:
- Specially made to measure inside Nike’s Athlete Services division, produced in Bosnia to the player’s exact specifications.
- SG-Pro Anti-Clog soleplate configuration, identical to those supplied for KDB’s competitive use across both domestic and European fixtures.
- Right boot features personalised detailinh of his children’s names and dates of birth: ‘MASON MILIAN 10.03.2016’ & ‘ROME 31.10.2018’ – accompanied by the Belgium national flag.
- Left boot features ‘SURI 03.09.2020’ along with the Belgium flag.
- The player’s custom foot last (mould) ID number is handwritten inside each boot, confirming their bespoke manufacture for De Bruyne himself.
- Each boot has been hand signed by De Bruyne across the toe box area, displaying large, perfectly executed, and matching autographs — an incredibly rare occurrence, making this pair one of only a handful of dual-signed De Bruyne player-issue boots known to exist.
- Anti-Clog soleplate + Dynamic Fit Collar specification created exclusively for KDB, never madd available to the public on this ‘Peak Ready’ pack.

2023/24 Achievements:
- Premier League Champions (historic 4-in-a-row).

- Dual hand signed by Kevin De Bruyne — a feature almost never seen on his issued or match-worn boots, making this pair exceptionally scarce and highly desirable to elite collectors and investors alike.
- Personalised with his children’s names and birthdates, connecting the boots directly to the player’s personal life and grounding them in authenticity.
- A true 1-of-1 issued and signed artefact from one of football’s most consistent and respected professionals.
