Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has added to his impressive boot collection by commissioning Handmade Customised Footwear Designer SWithADot to work his magic on a pair of "Black Lux" Nike Mercurial Superfly VI football boots. Bespoke as they come, with Auba identity all over.
If Aubameyang can customise it, he will. Whether that's his headphones, his cars, his clothes or his boots, the Arsenal striker has a serious signature collection. His latest addition of custom flavour comes via his boot choice and features genuine 18k gold leaves on the upper. Because of course it does; this is a man who wraps his Lamborghini in gold.
This isn't the first time @SWithADot has landed on our radar – he created an equally as impressive pair of Hulk-themed boots for Armenian international Tigran Barseghyan last year. As for Aubameyang's latest custom job, the boots have been transformed using a Black Panther theme along with his squad numbers for Arsenal (14) and Gabon (9). An Avenger piece is the key call-out as it splits into a portrait of the striker on the right boot.
Aubameyang is one of Nike's leading Mercurial men so it's unlikely that he'll wear them in a competitive game, but he does have a tendency to wear lots of custom, throwback and limited edition Mercurials in training.
