Did you know that the boot was not always part of football? At the end of the 19th century, men and women played with leather boots, typical of the time, which gradually proved to be inefficient for sports. Thus, with the passage of time and the popularization of the modality, shoes needed to be adapted to better meet the needs of athletes.

This virtual exhibition held at Google Art & Culture tells the story of the evolution of sports shoes, from the beginning of football to the most modern times. The show explores the changes that boots have gone through, from material to colors, in addition to the disputes between brands and the latest technologies.
