Premium Kangaroo leather; Nike Tiempo IV Elite Teaser...


Chicharito fans will you please stand up! After looking at this color way i could only help but think of Manchester United and the Mexican savior Chichi...So without any further anticipation, i would like to introduce the The new Nike Legend IV Elite WHT/RED color way.  

The boot is made of Premium Kangaroo leather, only available in the Tiempo IV Elite, which is why many of you footy fans are wondering why the elite version is so much more supply/softer then the regular Tiempo. The reason is because it is elite so Nike gives you a little more premium joey.  The upper is made from the softest and strongest high performance k-leather available. The same premium leather was first used by Nike in the 10R collection back in the day as i am sure many of you footy fans remember. Now however the boots have changed and for the Tiempo Legend IV Elite, further advancements have been made making the leather stronger and softer.


Vamp stitching on the upper is one of the key factors in providing the soft touch and feel the Nike Legend is famous for. The boot is all about being simple, classic, and preaches touch. The new diagonal stitching in the new Tiempo Legend IV prevents the boot from over stretching while the clean minimal-stitched area at the front of the boot creates a clean surface for great touch. In addition, the carbon fiber sole-plate on the Nike Tiempo Legend IV Elite features a combination of elliptical and bladed studs that are injected on the composite carbon outsole. Nike's famous carbon fibre sole plates have become an integral part of their Elite range and are scientifically proven to give players an edge in the final stages of a game. However, at first the carbon fiber can be very stiff and actually takes time to break in...



As a top level Nike football boot, the new Tiempo IV Elite's will be priced at around  $350. To be honest with you, this boot is truly a hybrid and a concept boot that is very special and offers a lot of class and style to your game. The boots are around 9.4 which is decent due to the K-Leather upper. The boots drop 1/1/2012 so if you are a heritage/simple guy and can deal with the white upper this could be your next boot!
