Fashion tips from football stars New Sport Side

Bw Boots Uk is an English portal. If you register on it, you have access to a room where you can buy football boots. The peculiarity is that there are some of the most rare and vintage Nike and adidas models: from the Nike R9 to the legendary Predator of the German brand. Keep this in mind for the next match with friends.

Even Assou Ekotto, left-back now in force at Saint Etienne (dressed Le Coq Sportif), has - several times - told he’s used to buy the boots he plays with on Bw or Ebay. His most careful followers will have of course appreciated the beautiful photo exhibition on his Instagram account. "I do it because I don't want to be a slave of sponsors, and because beautiful things are made to be purchased". Assou is a true sneakerhead, as confirmed by the many limited editions that appear on his Instagram: from the Jordan x Supreme, passing through all the Yeezy 2 versions. All bought with his salary (which is not small). Because streetwear is a serious matter, and as such should be supported.

It is obviously not the only stylistic oddity which one can face browsing through the Instagram profiles of football champions. Quirks that we can interpret as advice: how to dress according to the most famous players in the world? The one, more than anyone, attracts the attention in Italy is definitely Paul Pogba. The Juventus number 10 has always been stuck on the label of the next crack of world football, but not only. Pogba has become known for his extravagant look, the love for gold and for the ultra-pop. Such as dab dance, which is ultimately an integral part of his repertoire. What his Instagram did however say is the meticulous care of the hairstyles. If you are an enthusiast you can take note of his favorite models: Lion coat and the Batman logo. Even the starry sky version, however, is not bad.

That of the "Barber shop" is a deeply felt tradition, and still carried on, in Naples. I say this from experience, no doubt that in other cities it does too. It is strange indeed to see the players of Napoli mutate quickly look once enrolled in SCN. Elseid Hysaj escaped in part the Neapolitan stereotyping (thank goodness) but not to the tradition. Here then, all his favorite selfies have been taken on the barber chair, also accompanied by a true Neapolitan like Lorenzo Insigne. Despite with proud Albanian origins, he needed not so much time to get used to the Neapolitan life, including fish dinners, good coffee and getaways.

There are times when Gregory Van Der Wiel looks more like a model than a footballer. The strong defender of Paris Saint Germain has in fact everything you could wish for "doing a great Instagram" putting your face: a beautiful girlfriend, a perfect body, many, many tattoos. Not least, Gregory knows how to choose the best accessories: hats, hoverboard and ... perfumes. One in particular, that of his captain Zlatan Ibrahimovic. It is easy to believe that the perfumes line, launched by Sweden last summer, was almost forced to the dressing room. Nothing to take away from Gregory, who remains the most accredited to take it better than everyone else.

Demy de Zeuw is, along with Van Der Wiel (and Elia) the creator of a line of luxury fashion brands: BALR. BALR - after starting with shirt - took to brand essentially everything from covers for iPhone, to the glasses, via the Playstation to the suits. De Zeuw, which of the three seems to be the more active in the promotion of the brand, has a clear idea what to make something work, nowadays, must know how to sell it on Instagram. Obviously he’s not very busy in the fields, he features an incredible collection of cars, watches, breathtaking views, all accompanied by a clearly visible BALR logo. His touch, the advice that you can not miss, is Vin, his beautiful little dog. A teddy bear 2k like a photo, which accompanies Demy in all the moments of his life.

There is something in Spanish, or at least some Spanish, which gives them an incredible aura of elegance. Then it happens that the same Spanish elegant on the pitch is able to effectively transfer this property in private life; in these cases the results are surprising as we have seen for Xabi Alonso. In England, however - in the real England, the industrial Manchester - to dispense touches is Juan Mata. The Castilian, also marketing and communication student at the University of Madrid, can effectively show you how to bring a camel coat from a unenviable height of 170 cm (I say this because I’m too). Juan never denies a shirt, it's sporty or more elegant, and he can always show you how to be flawless in every situation without falling into formalism.

To opt for an urban style, however, is Karim Benzema. The French striker of Real Madrid is certainly very attentive to the fashions of the moment. Yeezy, Balmain, NBA cap, Benzema tries to keep pace with the times and not to fall in trash. Sometimes it happens, sometimes less. From his Instagram profile for the full truth of game photos, you can learn a good lesson in style, useful for every day: how to match the sweatshirt to sneakers; of course, under the  condition of having a sufficient number of sneaker. Black with black, red with red, the Yeezy with everything, although it is not revolutionary, that of Karim is advice to keep in mind.

Extras: be cool without even trying. All the tips listed above, would be useless without the right dose of naturalness in following them. Take Ricardo Kaka: he probably is not updated on the latest adidas release, or more brilliant on the clock, yet taking a photo at random from his Instagram there is only one comment to make: ok. Kaka is ok with wine red shirt, ok with the nail skin, ok with Steph Curry, with Kobe Bryant and even with Rihanna. If you do not have time or other availability to follow all the advice, we have one last: Be like Kaka.
