euro – Boots Vault

New addition!

Nike T90 Laser II Euro 2008 and they are match worn by “Christoph Metzelder” in Euro 2008 for Germany.

This Nike T90 Laser Euro 2008 edition was actually never released to public, only in the cheaper version T90 Shoot. I managed to hear from a friend of mine that there was some early releases of this boot but Nike had to recall them mainly due to the stiching material used. This stiching material started basically to rotten when the boots got wet, and this caused a bad smell that would stay on the boot regardless of what you tried to clean them with.

I’m not sure if the these boots worn by “Metzelder” had the same problem or not, but usually proffesional worn boots are made with slightly better components. And these dosen’t smell bad 😛

One thing is for sure that this Euro 2008 colourway is the best colourway by far! The dark leather with a white Nike swoosh and a bright blue soleplate is just a perfect combination.

The Euro 2016 has started and it’s time to look back at some old boots released during Euro’s! The old boots really bring back old memories and stories.

I have picked the following boots as they remind me of the Euros 1996-2012:

Adidas Predator Touch Fg 1996
Nike Mercurial Match Fg 2000
Adidas Predator Precision Sg 2000
Nike Mercurial Vapor II Fg 2004
Adidas Predator Pulse Sg 2004
Nike Mercurial Vapor SL Fg 2008
Adidas Predator Powerswerve Sg 2008
Nike Mercurial Vapor VIII Fg 2012

For me the favourite boots are the Adidas Predator Precision Sg from Euro 2000 in Netherlands and Nike Mercurial Vapor SL Fg from Euro 2008 in Austria & Switzerland!

These vapors were released during Euro 2008 and are made in leather. Pair I’m showing is not a public released boot as it’s a SL model, with carbon fibre soleplate! This model was only used by some of the proffesionals during Euro 2008 tournament!

In my opinion best looking Tiempo and T90!

Piece of art! You can’t have a more classy boot than this Nike Mercurial Vapor IV SL E08 edition, only for proffesionals. Nike combined black K-leather with carbron soleplate and gave it a blue studdpattern 👌
