If you’re looking for a mark of quality on a boot, then you need look no further than the ‘Made in Italy’ stamp that accompanies the return of one of the most iconic boots of all time: the Diadora Brasil 1984. It’s been missing for a few years, but it’s back with a bang, taking on a classic colourway that celebrates its namesake’s success at this summer’s Copa America.
The Diadora Brasil is back, and using the Selecao’s success at Copa America this summer as the perfect excuse, they bring it back in the classic colour way of yellow on black. Honestly though Diadora, you don’t ever need an excuse to bring this colourway back, you already had us at Brasil 1984. Still boasting that glorious Diadora logo down each side and on the soleplate, along with the fine stitching and Italian flag on the collar, it’s the fine details of the Brasil that continue to stand it out as pure class.
Diadora have a long and prestigious history in the game, fitting out European Footballers of the Year Marco Van Basten, George Weah and Roberto Baggio in the exquisite comfort of their range. And the ‘Made in Italy’ callout on the tongue is testament to the years of experience they have in producing some of the finest boots ever.
While the Italian brand undoubtedly enjoyed their greatest success through the 80s and 90s, players such as Christian Vieri, Roy Keane and Filippo Inzaghi ensured the brand remained as a class option well into the new century. Now the the iconic 1984 Brasil boot is back once more, still crafted by hand from the finest kangaroo leather in Montebelluna, and still carrying the ultimate hallmark of quality: Made in Italy.
