While Vardy's and Mahrez's Boots seem to be identical upon first glance, the boots boast subtle but very important differences that reflect the players' complementary play. Vardy's right boot is predominantly white and his left is black, while Mahrez's left boot is white and his right boot is black. Additionally, each boot features its respective player's national flag: the Algerian flag on Mahrez's and the English flag on Vardy's.

Apart from the two-colored style, the new Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez are nothing very special. Boasting the colors of Leicester City, the new white, black and blue Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez Special Nike Hypervenom Soccer Cleats are the same as the boots players can create using Nike's customization service NikeiD.

Mahrez explains, "Jamie and I took unusual routes to get to here and this helps our partnership – I'm honoured to wear these boots as symbols of our achievements this season."

Vardy underscores his teammate's respect, stating, "I've worn some special boots this season and these stand out. The last game of this season is going to be an occasion, and I appreciate the understanding have with Riyad – it's something I'm proud of and the boots reflect that."
