I saw the new Nike catalog and here is the low down They will be releasing a totally new boot the Tiempo Ronaldinho. It will be priced at 150.00. The upper is K-Leather and it will only be offered in a black with white trim. The design is very retro, the nike tick looks like the one from the late 1970's. The outsole is a round stud and blade hybrid like the current AZT's. There are some pics floating around on a www.bootnr.com thread of an early production smaple of these boots titled the super legend. They are basiclly the same with a little bit different tounge. FG and SG will be offered The AZT's will come on a Red with grey and white trim and the other model will be a Black with red and white trim (picture the current Rooney colorway and then reverse the colors). The Black will come in SG as well as FG. The Vapor will have a new R9 color way which is a really odd shade of metalic dark blue, its not quite navy but not quite purple either. Then there is a White model with a Black tick and Sliver on the heal. Nike really didn't do too much with these colors. The white looks like every other white Vapor that is out now. The Legend will stick around but be limited to the Black color way and a new White colorway with Black trim. The White was avaliable on Nike ID. for a while. The Brasilian will be replaced with a mock up of the new Ronaldinho boots, I can't recall the name of these but is had Brasil something or another in the title. The indoor/sala line is just adding new colors to the new boots that will be coming out this fall which are the new AirZoom Control(aside from the fact that the lime green color dropping this fall is awful, this will be one of the top two indoor boots of the season) and First Touch models. I will get the info on these tomorrow but I know one of the flat bottom ones is a marronish color.
Yeah, I checked everything out on Nike.net the other day. I might get around to posting pictures...if I know I can avoid a slap on the wrist...or worse...from Nike. The Ronaldinho's are kinda a mix of the black Legends and and old school style of classic boot. Pretty dope.
Forward me the pictures, and I can do an 'artists impression' of the boots using photoshop/paintbrush. That will get around anything Nike has to say.
You have to be a Nike dealer to get a login+password. I got on using my store's login...I get on Nike.net so I can put products into our computer system before they get in...but I also check out the new products.
There was a minor error on my part the R9 Vapor isn't really dark blue, I got a more solid look at the catalog today and it is more like a chrome with blue tint and neon yellow on the heel. They are close to the Chrome and Lime Vapor's in color but like I said the the chrome has a blueish tint. The indoor models are the Air Zoom Control 2 in a turf style bottom and a flat the turf is white and the flat is marron and red. The other is the First Touch, the turf bottom model is navy blue and the flat is white and yellow. Both these indoors look great, Nike has give the Controls a proper tounge and an external heel counter they have a KNG-75 upper and the First Touch has a lower quality synthetic called Trophy which is used on the current Steam model shoes. They don't feature Zoom Air or the heel counter but they also look very nice.
I remember a few months back, someone posted some supremacy's in white and chrome color like the AZT 90 III's. ARe those coming out anytime soon?
The White and Chrome colorway(reported by me as well) will be out in Oct. according to the Nike info I have at my store. As for these K-Leather AZT's I have not seen them and they are not in the Nike book I have at my store, I am not saying they don't exist but I know nothing of them.
The new shoes sound cool - especially the Ronaldinho's!!! Are there any new soccer inspired lifestyle shoes coming out in 2007?
They aren't in the Nike catalog...(I'm guessing the one you're talking about has C. Ronaldo on the cover?)...they're in a print-out that came along with ours. I have no reason to lie about it.
JC and Its Swanny, have any of you seen the new Reebok line? Especially the ones Henry would be wearing
Bro I wasn't saying you were lying, I just haven't seen them and they werent in the CRonaldo catalog at my work. I havent seen the spring print out, I know Nike does do print outS though becasue I have seen the fall 06/winter 07 one with the new first touch and control models in it as well as the white and sliver azt's
Yeah, that's the white/black colorway. I didn't see the red contrast stitching in the catalog though.
I think that's a useless post! It seems wierd that they're releasing another White colour combo for te Vapor's, I was surprised that there wasn't a Chrome MVIII knocking about at the World Cup, instead there were three R9 Vapors, strange!
