Blom in classic adidas boots
Njabulo Blom whipped on of the most iconic football boots, the adidas Copa Mundial, during St Louis City's training session yesterday.
The glistening leather stunners are more than just boots, they are a work of art, an artifact if you will.
The Copa Mundial boots were first released back in 1979 and have worn by icons such as the late Diego Maradona, Zinedine Zidane, Franz Beckenbauer and Michel Platini among countless others.

As mentioned by Bleacher Report, the Copa Mundial is the best-selling boot of all time and is still being sold to this day, going for as much as R3 387 at places like Goalinn.com.
Made of kangaroo leather, the Copa Mundial may just look like a black boot with adidas' three-stripes logo on the sides, but they were regarded as the first "modern" boots of its time, due to how light they were compared to other boots in the 70's.
