It is 2021, and many things in football are like never before currently, especially because of the COVID-19 pandemic. One thing that has not changed is, however, the only red boots rule of Liga MX club Xolos from Tijuana. We take a look at the newest creations of Club Tijuana's players.
As you might already know, the red boots only policy was introduced by Tijuana's club owner Jorge Hank Rhon. The rule has been active since the creation of the club in the mid-2000s.

Recent weeks brought us some new creations by some Xolos players. In example, with Puma having released the next-gen Puma Future Z in Hi-Vis Yellow, Fidel Martinez had to paint the boot red to align with the rule.

Other custom boots include hand-painted Nike Mercurial Superfly 7 and Tiempo Legend 8 paint jobs as well as cleats created using Nike's customization service 'Nike By You'.

Some players opt to keep things easy. They do not recolor their boots but choose to wear cleats that are red by default, such as goalkeeper Jonathan Orozco, who is wearing the Umbro Velocita 5 Pro FG from the Red Alert pack.
