Back in November 2012, Nike rolled out a pretty good-looking signature footwear/apparel collection for Cristiano Ronaldo. Well it looks like the Swoosh is at it again in ‘13 with the unveiling of yet another exclusive line inspired by the world-class striker for Real Madrid.

Drawing inspiration from speed and style, the CR7 Summer ’13 collection features a new-look CR Mercurial Vapor IX boot, along with a variety of performance training gear and apparel.

Cristiano has (foot)balled up a lot of defenders in the Mercurial Vapor IX boot over the past year or so. The latest version of his go-to cleat features a White/Neon Orange/ Neon Yellow, with an Orange safari print first seen on his 2010 Mercurial Vapor Superfly II.

As far as performance, the cleat still has all of its innovative features like the All Conditions Control (ACC) technology for all-weather play.

The rest of the collection carries the same color scheme of the Vapor IX, including the CR7 Mercurial Lite shin guards, CR7 Prestige ball, and the CR7 Cheyenne backpack.

Rounding out the line are a few lifestyle pieces like the CR7 Pique Polo, and the CR7 V-neck T-shirt—all clad with Cristiano’s “love to win, hate to lose” logo.

The latest Nike CR7 Collection will be available starting April 11 at Nike.
