This coverage may begin with an intriguing Lionel Messi shrine at No. 74 Berlin. Sure, the quirky cool folks at No. 74 think that Argentinia football player, Lionel Messi is perhaps one of the greatest football player ever lived, but the shrine, while filled with admiration and good intentions, sing praises in a little strange, creepy way. However, the shrine also attests to Germany’s obsession with football, very much like the heated adidas adiCup to take place in Berlin does. There you go, Lionel Messi Shrine and adiCup Berlin are evidence that the German folks love their football. After closing off the fiery foot action in New York City and Tokyo (winners are the Diner Old Boys and C.A. Real Tokyo respectively), the competition moved back to the land of adidas, Germany. In Berlin, the creative types gathered on a sunny Saturday afternoon at Wrangelstr, Berlin to kick and score for a chance to compete in the adiCup finals and also for the opportunity to watch 2010 FIFA World Cup live in South Africa.
As Nike sponsors the World Cup 2010, new releases were revealed including the soccer shoe, Air Zoom Tiempo. This pair is exclusively designed for the soccer players and it was given the name “Write the Future”.
The Nike Air Zoom Tiempo – Write the Future edition features premium black leather covering the whole upper with detailed stitching forming diamond pattern on the side panel. An accent of bright pink composes the Swoosh and the number “78″ that prompts on the folded tongue. A hit of bright yellow steals a fragment on the collar giving away additional flair.
A remarkable design appears on the sneaker’s insole that features a cartoon illustration of Tsubasa Yokotake, a Japanese football player. The concept of the insole colors jive with the pink accent on the exterior.
If you love soccer and you are one of those waiting for the World Cup 2010 to commence, give yourself a break and sneak in for this pair of Nike Air Zoom Tiempo which is now available at selected shops in Tokyo, Japan.
It isn’t foolhardy belief, but common sense that a tennis player should be more apt at table tennis than a soccer player. However, from the latest video to drop from Nike’s extremely well-received and raved about “Write The Future” campaign, the sportswear giant believes the otherwise can happen. Yes, when English football hero Wayne Rooney is pitched against tennis star Roger Federer, Rooney could give Federer a pointer or two. And who knew, that Federer wanted to play doubles with Wayne Rooney and seems to have a little bit of a man crush on the football player. Indeed, anything is possible for the future.
