Ivan Perisic Trains In White / Gold Nike Tiempo Legend II Cleats

The Croatian winger Ivan Perisic trained in a pair of Nike Tiempo Legend IIs from the mid-2000s (2005) that directly reminded us of the iconic white / gold Nike Tiempo Air R10 Ronaldinho boots. However, a closer look at the tongue reveals that it is not the R10 version. This can be seen in the tongue which has reversed colors compared to the model worn by Perisic.

What are the reasons for Perisic to lace up in the classic Nike Tiempo Legend II instead of his regular choice, the Nike Mercurial Vapor 360? The Croatian was injured since early February 2020 with a fracture of the right lateral malleolus, which might led him to wear the more comfort choice of boot, the Tiempo.
