Global Boot Spotting - 03/08/2015 : Boot Spotting : Soccer Bible

It's Monday, it's boot-spotting. Get stuck in as we bring you our selection of the best boots on show from planet football.

The countdown to kick off speeds up as we recap the final weekend of pre-season action ahead of the Premier League's return. As player make their final preparations so do brands in a busy week that saw a whole host of new, old and custom football boots.

Clinton Njie (Lyon) Nike Mercurial Superfly IV

Nike aren't messing about as they muscle into the new season with a boot pack that punches for full blooded on pitch visibility. The 'Lightning Storm' Pack is headlined by the 'Hyper Pink' Mercurial Superfly IV, an unmissable design as seen on the feet of Lyon's Clinton Njie amongst a number of other high profile players this week.

Alex Greenwood (Notts County) Umbro Velocita

Umbro added another crowd-pleasing colourway to their Velocita this week and Alex Greenwood wasted no time snagging a pair to wear in the 2015 Women's FA Cup Wembley Final against Chelsea at the weekend. The 'Black/Safety Yellow' design packs a traditional feel on Umbro's most advanced speed silo to date.

Shinji Okazaki (Leicester City) Mizuno Basara

Leicester's new £7 million man Shinji Okazaki adds another Mizuno representative to the Premier League. Signed from Mainz the Japanese international will kick off the season at his new club wearing the latest 'Red/White' Basara boot direct from his homeland.

Andres Iniesta (Barcelona) Nike Magista Opus

Andres Iniesta was marketed as the face of the Nike Magista Obra at the launch of the boot in 2014 but since then the Barca midfielder, along with many other Obra players, has switched into the low-cut Opus edition of the boot. Iniesta's latest colour-up saw him don the 'Lightning Storm' version in his side's 2-1 defeat to Fiorentina.

Ronaldinho (Fluminense) Nike Tiempo Legend V

Ronaldinho made a winning return to Brazilian football on Saturday when he assisted the goal that saw his new club Fluminense beat his first ever professional club Gremio. Now 35-years-old R10 has seen a fair few Tiempo colourways in his time, but few as bright as the 'Lightning Storm' designs he wore at the weekend.

Robin van Persie (Fenerbahce) adidas F50 adizero

Robin van Persie came off the bench for his Fenerbahce debut wearing a familiar boot as his new club were held to a 0-0 draw against Shakhtar Donetsk in the third round of Champions League qualifying. The ex-Arsenal and Man United striker was laced up in his adizero/adiPower hybrid design, a boot that he'd blacked out for the final stages of his career in England.

Joe Ledley (Crystal Palace) New Balance Visaro

New Balance have added another robust midfielder to their ranks in the shape of Crystal Palace's Joe Ledley. A Premier League and international regular makes Ledley a safe but reliable addition and a solid platform to offer their new Visaro silo on-pitch time ahead of the new season and in Wales' impressive Euro 2016 Qualifying campaign.

Jean-Kevin Augustin (PSG) Nike Mercurial Superfly IV

PSG's 18-year-old strikr Jean-Kevin Augustin got some game time in the 2-0 win over Lyon in Montreal this weekend. Rather than opting for the bright 'Lightning Storm' Pack Augustin has gone down the complete opposite street by lacing up in a blackout edition of the Nike Mercurial Superfly IV.

Pepe (Real Madrid) Umbro Speciali Eternal

Pepe captained Real Madrid to a penalty shootout victory against AC Milan in Shanghai at the weekend wearing the next colourway of the Umbro Speciali Eternal boot. If you've bought SoccerBible Magazine Issue 3 you'll know all about Pepe's deep connection with the brand, if you haven't, please do, it keeps us in the job.

Mario Lemina (Marseille) Nike Hypervenom Phantom II

With Neymar's exclusive 'Green Strike' Nike Hypervenom Phantom II boot leading the 'Lightning Storm' Pack the Swooshes other Hypervenom players are lacing up in 'Total Orange' edition, which runs in tune with the eccentric design theme. Mario Lemina was sporting a pair this week but you can expect your Hypevenom regulars such as Rooney and Lewandowski to follow come the new season kick off.

Memphis Depay (Manchester United) Under Armour Speedform

Under Armour continue to shower their new star Memphis Depay with gifts as the Dutch international turned out for Manchester United wearing another exclusive colourway this week. Depay laced up in a 'Black/Gold' Speedform boot as United ended their tour of the US with a 2-0 defeat to PSG.

Edin Dzeko (Manchester City) adidas F50 adizero

The blue half of Manchester were also rounding off their pre-season schedule with a 4-2 defeat to Stuttgart. Forgotten man Edin Dzeko bagged one of the consolations for City wearing his adidas 'Battle Pack' F50 boots, complete with Bosnian flag, plucked straight from his 2014 World Cup archive.
