The 2014-15 Premier League season finished last weekend. While Chelsea won their fifth Premier League title and Manchester United managed to make the 15-16 Champions League play-offs, it has to be said that Nike won the 2014-15 Premier League battle of the boots.
Already supplying more than half of the players of the Premier League with boots, Nike also tops the goalscoring charts, both as a brand and with the Mercurial silo as a boot line. Adidas meanwhile is 2nd in all 14-15 Premier League brand rankings.

Nike won the Premier League battle of the brands
While Sergio Agüero (Puma evoSPEED) became the 14-15 Premier League top goalscorer with 26 goals, ahead of newcomer Harry Kane (Nike Hypervenom, 21 goals) and Diego Costa (Adidas F50 Adizero, 20 goals), Nike won the brand chart for goals with Nike players having scored more than half of all goals (492).

2014-2015 Premier League Top Goalscoring Boot Silos
A similar picture can be seen when looking at the number of goals scored with different football boots in the 14-15 Premier League season. Nike's Mercurial line (Mercurial Superfly + Mercurial Vapor) lead the ranking in this aspect, with 206 goals. Only the Adidas F50 Adizero comes close, adding 191 goals to its tally, which gives Adidas' speed boot a nice goodbye after more than ten years.
The Nike Magista, Nike Hypervenom and Adidas Predator boot silos follow on the places 3 to 5, while the first boot by a brand that is not part of the big two is the Puma evoSPEED on 7th place.
