Nike celebrates the legendary 2006 “Joga Bonito” campaign with a visually striking take that combines the heritage of vintage soccer with the iconic cushioning of the Air Max line. The silhouette pays homage to the charm of the Brazilian national team of that era and to the legendary Mercurial R9 cleat worn by Ronaldo Nazário.
The synthetic leather upper features gradient shades of Black, Light Graphite, and Anthracite, accented by wavy veins that echo the design of soccer cleats. The color contrast is accentuated by vibrant shades of Neon Yellow on the side Swoosh, outsole details, and visible Air units. The foam midsole with Max Air technology ensures the right balance between support, responsiveness, and maximum everyday comfort.
