The 2026 World Cup has ignited a new trend in footwear: pink boots. A huge majority of players sported vibrant pink footwear on the pitch, including Jude Bellingham, Harry Kane, and Cristiano Ronaldo, prompting many young fans to seek their own pairs.
Major Brands Launch Pink Boots
Several major brands launched pink boots simultaneously, including Nike, Puma, and adidas. Some options are currently discounted.
The Nike Tiempo Maestro Elite FG boots, usually priced at £240, are down to £175 at Pro Direct. With a £65 saving, these boots feature a new TechLeather upper for a soft, natural touch that 'puts your dribbling technique on full display'. They have a sleek, adaptable fit that follows the contours of your foot, bringing it closer to the ball for 'confidence in possession'. The 360-Wrap allows creative tricks using different parts of the foot. Sizes range from 3.5 to 12, with size 13 out of stock.
Another Nike option is the Mercurial Vapor 17 Elite SG boots, priced at £265 at JD Sports. Available in sizes 6 to 11 (no half sizes), these boots use Nike's lightest Flyknit for an ultra-light feel. Metal studs promise 'supreme grip' on soft ground pitches, and the design keeps the foot close to the ball.
Puma stocks the FUTURE 9 MATCH FG/AG Football Boots Unisex for £75, in sizes 9, 9.5, 10, 10.5, 11, and 12. These boots are made from a lightweight base material, with a stretchy knitted collar and strategic stud placement for flexibility and freedom of movement.
Adidas offers the F50 Hyperfast League Firm Ground Football Boots and the F50 SPARKFUSION LEAGUE Firm Ground/Artificial Ground Football Boots Women's, both at £80. Available in sizes 3.5 to 13 and 3 to 12 respectively, these boots enable fast moves and sharp changes.
