    Cristiano Ronaldo and Nike are celebrating an iconic moment in football history with the release of the Nike Mercurial Vapor 1 "Dark Cinder", a boot that pays homage to the pair Ronaldo wore during his professional debut at just 17 years old. This special edition Mercurial not only honors the beginning of CR7’s legendary career but also highlights his unbreakable connection to the Mercurial franchise, a relationship that has influenced both football boots and the sport itself for over two decades.

    Now, over two decades later, Nike is bringing the Dark Cinder colorway back, reviving one of Ronaldo’s most significant career-defining moments. The rich brown upper stays true to the original, complemented by a crisp white Swoosh and treads that contrast beautifully against the darker base. A Maize-colored sock liner and heel trim add a bold pop of color, mirroring the exact details of Ronaldo’s debut pair and serving as a nod to the early 2000s era of football boots.

    Ronaldo’s debut in the Dark Cinder Mercurials marked the start of a career that would redefine the sport. From his early years as a raw, unpredictable winger at Sporting CP to becoming a five-time Ballon d’Or winner, CR7’s relentless pursuit of excellence has been matched only by his unwavering connection to the Mercurial franchise. With every era of his career, Nike’s Mercurials have been there, evolving alongside him as he shattered records, lifted trophies, and cemented himself as one of football’s all-time greats.

    Set to drop on March 3rd, the Nike Mercurial Vapor 1 "Dark Cinder" serves as both a tribute to Ronaldo’s legacy and a chance for the next generation to step onto the pitch in the same colors that started it all.

    Until then, enjoy official images of the pair below and make sure to keep your eyes locked onto our official twitter for further updates.
