The boots of

Leyendas
It was in 1998 when Ronaldo Nazario stepped onto the pitch at the Stade de France to debut the first Nike Mercurial in history. A boot that revolutionised the market and caught the attention of the whole world for its lightness and the striking combination of colours of the national team. Although the Brazilian did not win the World Cup that year, he did win it four years later, scoring a brace against Germany. Known for his speed and hunger for goal, Ronaldo became the ultimate expression of the Mercurial silo.
