Update: We get a closer look at the special Ballon d'Or shoes that Nike dedicated to Spain and Manchester City midfielder Rodri. They have been custom-created for him and are not for sale. Big thanks to Soccerbible for the images.
According to AS, Nike focused on Rodri and Vinicius Jr. as possible Ballon d'Or winners and "prepared unique designs as tributes for both of them."

Nike Rodri 2024 Ballon d'Or Boots
Based on the boots Rodri held in his hands, we've created a mock-up version to give you a full look at the Nike Phantom Luna 2 2024 Rodri Ballon d'Or boots.
The special Nike Phantom Luna 2 Rodri Ballon d'Or boots are predominantly white with a metallic gold soleplate for a luxurious look that matches his achievements.
Rodri is wearing the high-cut Nike Phantom Luna soccer cleats. He is out with an injury for the rest of the season, so we won't see the special boots until the 25-26 season on the pitch.
