Cristiano Ronaldo’s new boots recall his shift to number 7
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
On August 12, 2003, 18-year-old #cristianoronaldo arrived in Manchester, England, to join his new team. He expected to wear number 28 as he had with his previous club, but his iconic manager had other ideas. “Alex Ferguson said to me: 'Listen, I want you to take number seven,'” recalls Ronaldo. “I was surprised because I knew the guys who had worn that shirt.”
Ronaldo quickly proved himself worthy of the seven shirt and forged his game and physique during his years in Manchester.
“It was the beginning of my success in football,” says Ronaldo. “I improved not just my skills, but my body too.”
In the five years that I was there, I learned the art of football.
- Cristiano Ronaldo
Ronaldo contributed mightily to the team’s three consecutive league titles and earned the world’s best player award in 2008. “In the five years that I was there, I learned the art of football. We won many things together. It was a dream for me,” says Ronaldo.
These transformative years provide the inspiration for Ronaldo’s Chapter 4: Forged for Greatness boots. The design is a nod to hot iron being forged into shape. Molten-esque orange and red gradients on the plate transition into metallic tones of the color-shifting upper. The #cr7 logo on the medial side features a prominent 7 against tonal CR lettering to highlight his shift to the number seven shirt during these years. The heel counter features the Roman numerals for 28, Ronaldo’s previous number, with the VII of the XVIII highlighted to reference the emergence of seven from 28.
CR7 Chapter 4: Forged for Greatness boots will be available in Superfly, Vapor and NikeFootballX versions on April 10.
