Nike Flyknit Lunar1 Mens Running Shoes-Orange Blue White

Introducing the Nike Tiempo II.

The Nike Tiempo II, also known as the Nike Tiempo Air Legend 2 football boots, will be pounding pitches very soon.

Worn by Carlos Tevez, Cesc Fabregas and Joe Cole, this football boot has a lot to live up to, as its predecessor the Nike Air Legend has been a traditional favourite of many a player.

Nike Tiempo II Background

During the 1994 World Cup final in the USA there were 10 players on the pitch, including Brazils Romario and Italys Paolo Maldini, wearing Nike Tiempo football boots.

Designed for the playmaker that relies on touch to control the game, and inspired by the original Tiempos classic looks, Nike has reintroduced the Tiempo using modern materials and techniques, while maintaining its clean traditional look.

Nike Air Legend II Research

Nikes research showed that on average, a player runs almost 12 kilometers in a game. The design and development objective with this football boot was to reduce weight while maintaining strength and protection so the player can run for longer.

This was achieved by reducing the overall weight of the football boot by 15g to 315g by re-engineering the upper and heel counter. This reduces the tongue size, whilst still ensuring it provides great fit and feel for superior performance.
