Boot Spy > Drogba & Özil Trains in Nike Superfly III Football Boots




Prior to the official unveil of the new Nike Superfly III football boots, Chelsea's Dider Drogba was spotted testing out his new boots during Chelsea's training session ahead of their Champions League match against Copenhagen.

Being one of the Superfly's biggest wearers, it was no surprise to see the Ivorian striker breaking into a pair of the new Plum Red/White/Neon Nike Superfly III football boots...



As you can see from our close-up images of Drogba's new Superfly III soccer shoes, the Chelsea hit-man has already had his pair personalised! Featuring ''Drogba 11'' on the side, he switched boots from his old Superfly II's mid-way through Chelsea's training session at their Cobham training complex yesterday.



Upon further inspection, our close up images of Drogba's new Superfly III football boots also reveals his familiar custom sole-plate. Drogba has become known for wearing a custom sole-plate similar to the one used on the Nike Mercurial Vapor II boots. He has become one of many professionals who chooses against wearing the NikeSENSE studs incorporated into the new Superfly boots.



Drogba's new Superfly III football boots weren't the only new soccer shoes on show! Chelsea's Ramires and Josh Mceachran were both spotted wearing the new White/Black/Tour Yellow Nike CTR360 Maestri II football boots. Ramires was showing his patriotism with a personalised Brasil flag on the inside of his CTR boots.



While we expect to see the likes of Ramires, Ashley Cole and Mceachran wearing the new CTR360 football boots during Chelsea's Champions League match tonight, it will be a surprise if Drogba steps out wearing the new Superfly III boots. But as we all know with football professionals, you never know what they're going to wear. We'll certainly have a close eye on Drogba tonight!



Drogba wasn't alone in using a Champions League training session to test out the new Superfly III football boots. Real Madrid's Mesut Özil was spotted wearing the new Red Plum/White/Neon Superfly III soccer shoes during Madrid's Champions League preparations yesterday. The former Nike CTR wearer is still only 22 years old and is on his way to becoming one of the Superfly's biggest players!



Our friends at Nike have told us to be on the look-out this weekend when most Superfly pro's are expected give the new Superfly III boots their official on-pitch débuts.

The new superflys are great I don't mind so muchbthat they just changed the colors cause there cool, I thought the purple would look good on the pitch and they do. Soccerbible noticed the soleplate but they missed the tongue at the toop of the boots its the vapor III style tongue

I feel soooo behind but I just bought Superfly II's for half price and can't wait for em.  Luckily for me, the III's only seem aesthetically different.

im curious as to why drogba still has the original tongue from vapors I-III? anyone else notice that?

March 16, 2011 10:02 PM
 

CRR125 said:

 hhhmmm...i wonder y drogba chose against using the nikeSENSE studs... maybe because they dont really help with traxion and just add extra weight!!!

March 16, 2011 10:14 PM
 

gerson10 said:

Be fast, Be seen??? i dont really see the hilighted part at the back, like nike says

March 16, 2011 10:40 PM
 

Madridmanfan792 said:

@crr125 how do you really know that they don't work? You can't tell really it's such a slight difference. But I find it funny how you slam the Nike studs when your profile pic is of adizero primes where they changed stud color and said hey there for different reasons....

ozil great player

i think drogba does most of his training on the diving board. u dont really need $400 boots for that, just a snorkel and some flippers!!!

March 16, 2011 10:44 PM
 

pcm19 said:

actually u can actually see him getting ready to jump!!!!

btw he has his custom SL sole plate.

barc4b0y said:

they look really good on the pitch very eye catching but in the case of Drogba i dont think he will wear them alot cuz he prefers Mainly Black Shoes like the orange/Black SPII but lets see what happens.

white-yellow Ctrs look good too.
