The strangest boots of Euro 2020

Euro 2020 showcased not only exceptional football but also a remarkable variety of football boots. Players opted for retro models, exclusive colourways, and lesser-known brands, creating a fascinating subplot to the tournament. This article highlights the most distinctive boots worn by some of the biggest stars.

CR7’s Spark Positivity Mercurials

Cristiano Ronaldo’s tournament ended in controversy after he discarded his captain’s armband, but his performances were record-breaking. Nike marked his dream start—two goals and the competition’s top scorer status—with a unique boot colourway reserved solely for the Portugal captain. The Mercurial Spark Positivity edition paid tribute to Ronaldo’s mental strength. Unfortunately, his early exit meant these eye-catching boots were only seen briefly on the pitch.

The Netherlands captain, eliminated in the round of 16, puzzled observers by wearing fully black boots throughout the tournament. They were later identified as an unreleased adidas prototype—the next generation of the X. Wijnaldum tested a model that has since been launched in a different colourway.

Raheem Sterling’s New Balance Furon

New Balance created an exclusive edition for England forward Raheem Sterling. The brand’s speed boot, the Furon, received a white base with blue and red accents, helping Sterling stand out among the many similar silhouettes on the pitch.
