The 26-year-old Mali international has completed his move to the Eagles, we look at the attacking midfielder’s love for luxury footwear. Other than his dazzling skills and eye for goal, Sako is most remembered for the incredible set of boots he used for his 100th appearance for Wolves.
The former Wolves man had a pair of custom-made Swarovski crystal-encrusted boots specially to mark the occasion. He posted a picture of the eye-catching boots across his social media along with the following message:
“I will be playin my 100 games for Wolves this weekend so a special day deserve a special boots ?? Big Thanks to @orravan_design the best handmade.#football #fit #swarovski #boots #100 #nike #picoftheday #photooftheday #wolves #best”
Based on the Laser Orange Nike Mercurial Superfly, the boots featured the Wolves logo on the heel and the number 100 on the instep. Crystals surrounded the boot, including the famous Nike Swoosh. His shirt number (10) was placed on the Dynamic Fit collar of the left boot.
Football boot obsessed website SoccerBible.com decided to write a feature on the midfielder’s love of a new set of “wheels” in their monthly magazine, posting a picture on their Instagram account showing his large boot collection. —> See it on Instagram here
Other examples of the dazzling boots played in by Sako can be seen throughout his time at Wolves, these include:
Golden “Neymar” Nike Hypervenom
Golden Nike Mercurial Superfly
With Bakary Sako leaving the gold/orange & black of Wolves, we’ll have to wait and see whether he ditches his love for golden boots for the colours of Crystal Palace.
