1. David Beckham - King of Bling
It cost around £600 per pair for his boots and he wears a new pair every game. Adidas have made only 723 pairs and only in his size. He has even had feng shui symbols sewn into his football boots in a bid to improve his football performance. The design which he helped with, is strongly based on David’s interest in Eastern mystic culture, saying “I’m very proud to wear these football boots because they represent the idea of yin and yang.” They are personalized with stitching of the names of his three children, his initials, his favored number 23 and Beckham’s printed signature for the ultimate Bling factor. Beckham put the Bling-Bling into football boots as no one has done before and he reigns supreme as the King of Bling
