Nike has given Cristiano Ronaldo a diamond encrusted gold boot to play in
the next game as a gift for winning the Ballon d’or.
Ronaldo is due to wear the boot for today’s game against Atletico Madrid.
This boot is named the Mercurial CR7 Rare Gold and is a gift from Nike to
reflect on Ronaldo’s remorseless work ethic’. The company explains:
“The micro-diamonds are remnants from larger stones that are
painstakingly perfected by craftsmen. As the diamonds are refined & the
details sharpened, tiny pieces are cut away, leaving micro-diamonds behind
as evidence of work in progress.
He commitment to keep chipping away at something already impressive
reminded Nike’s design team of Ronaldo’s work ethic. While many see
Ronaldo as the best in the world, he sees room for improvement”
Ronaldo beat out leo Messi and Manuel Neuer to win his third Ballon D’or
after an amazing 2014 season.
