Eden Hazard’s Boots: Refined Weave and Inner Lining

A change in the weave of the Nike Mercurial football boot is visible. The material appears slightly finer and features certain indentations that look like they are on the inside. These are likely part of a new inner lining that is radically different from the current design.

Fede Valverde’s Modified Sole

Real Madrid’s Fede Valverde has also been seen wearing a similar all-black model. The collar remains high, but there is a slight modification to the sole. The studs appear either more numerous or longer, although the available photo does not reveal much more detail.

Renán Lodi’s Dimpled Upper

Atlético Madrid’s Renán Lodi was spotted in the same all-black prototype. The side dimples are clearly visible on his pair, suggesting a very thin upper along with significant internal reinforcement. This appears to be Nike’s new football boot.

Kylian Mbappé’s High-Top Prototype

PSG’s Kylian Mbappé, a prominent Mercurial player, was also seen wearing this new all-black prototype. On this occasion he wore the high-top version. Apart from its unique construction, little else can be deduced about the specific model Mbappé is wearing.
