Details about NIKE WOMENS MERCURIAL SHOES SIZE 6.5 atomic 553632 333

You might have noticed that the latest range of Nike releases all feature the very recently developed ACC technology. ACC is something we were first introduced to with the CTR360 Maestri III, but no other boots have been exposed to its benefits – until now. It has caused quite a stir and has a lot of people talking, especially since Nike hasn’t released much information about its inclusion, instead taking the quite approach.

Eagle eyed spotters would have noticed ACC emblazoned across the tongue of the new Soar Tiempo Legend, the brightly colored Crimson T90 Laser and the?extremely visual Retro Vapor VIII. Of course, it will also be added to the new CTR360 Maestri III that will be released later this week. Without further ado, here are more details on the new advanced technology.

What is ACC?
“All Conditions Control” is a new coating added by Nike to the upper of its boots. Its purpose is to add a more uniform level of control in all weather conditions. Think of it as Rain-X, the liquid you apply to the windows of a car. A very thin layer covers the surface and acts as a light buffer in dry conditions without being slick in wet conditions.

Performance – What affect does it have?
None – you won’t notice much difference in how the upper actually feels. It doesn’t cause any stiff feel or change the fit of the shoe – it is simply a “treatment” applied to the upper.

How useful is it?
There is a definite benefit to its inclusion and Nike must be pretty confident about it if they are bringing it into their entire range. During testing the CTR360 Maestri III, I had the following comments on how it works out in play:

The concept behind this advanced addition is optimal control in dry and wet conditions. This is a bold statement from Nike as they continue to produce an even more advanced Kanga-Lite upper. To put it to the test, I did test these out with some extra water and they worked out pretty well. It is tough to say whether or not the control is the same in both weather conditions, but there is definitely a positive feel when the boots are wet.

There are actually more boots than just those featured above that will feature ACC technology – you can see the current available line-up right now at Soccer.com.

Ah, how bittersweet this award will taste for Cristiano Ronaldo, and he showed true emotion when accepting the award. The Real Madrid striker is absolutely deserving of the 2013 Ballon d’Or title, one which he thought he should have taken the previous year having lead his club to a La Liga title. In 2012/2013, Barca took the title, yet this is the year he takes the world’s best player title.

We all remember the grimace CR shared with us after hearing Messi’s name being announced last year, and this has somewhat been a redemption year where he set out to prove his value.?66 goals in 56 games for club and country later, he is the man most deserving of the personal award. He also bagged an incredible 9 hattricks in that period also, dynamite!

Side note; what about that suit Lionel Messi had on? If it was a ploy to steal some of the spotlight, it definitely worked!
