Named after the two cities that were of great importance in the former playmaker's career, Porto Alegre is the name of the city in which he was born and first kicked a ball, and Paris is where he enjoyed his time with PSG in the early 2000s.
Written on the inside tongue of each sneaker is the phrase: "I play with music in my head", written either in Portuguese or French.
The shoe itself is a trendy leather low-top with rubber soles that can easily go with a number of different dress codes.
