Nike pour a drop of vino on the FootballX collection as Pirlo pulls the cork and soaks the TiempoX in small-sided style. A long awaited tribute from a man who has always done things his own way, at his own pace, without the hunger for recognition, just a thirst for good football and great wine.
The limited edition run of signature Pirlo perfection is transformed from the cleated Tiempo Legend 6 to a street football silhouette equipped with a Lunarlon sole for the smoothest drive possible, typically Pirlo. Using Pirlo's passion for winemaking, the beautifully styled Tiempo series borrows colours from the vineyard he grew up on and bottles it up with inspiration from his family owned winery, called Pratum Coller.
As with the Tiempo 6 edition, the TiempoX Pirlo uses a premium Alegria leather upper for that premium feel to complement the Italian's playing style. Four gold stars, taken from the Pratum Coller logo are used on the heel and box as an extra nod to the winery, as well as honouring Italy's World Cup titles. If that wasn't enough, Nike cap things off with Italian flag lace aglets and a genuine cork sockliner. Bellissimo.
