To mark Cristiano Ronaldo's third Ballon d'Or (hence 333 pairs) Nike dropped an exclusive signature Superfly, which including micro-diamonds applied by hand to the CR7 logo of the boot. The micro-diamonds are remnants from larger stones that are perfected by craftsmen. As the diamonds are refined and the details sharpened, tiny pieces are cut away, leaving micro-diamonds behind as evidence of work in progress.
