As was the case with some of the previous Cristiano Ronaldo-exclusive football boots, it turns out the new Nike Mercurial Vapor VIII CR was only the beginning!

Nike and the' Portuguese' superstar have collaborated on a whole host of slick apparel for Winter 2012/13, which is sure to please even the most style-conscious fashionista.

The new CR7 on and off-pitch collection blends the uncompromising attitude of one of the world's most iconic players with an irreverent bold style that symbolizes his approach to life.

Unified by a striking graphic logo of a heart (symbolizing a love of winning) slashed by an X (representing a hatred of losing), śLove to win, hate to loseť is a philosophy that informs and appears on every piece of the collection.

This mantra also reflects a collection that reveals two distinct sides of CR7 ” one the relentless, focused footballer at the peak of his power and a more irreverent, playful and spontaneous style icon with a love of music that lives life full on.

Performance inspired pieces feature premium fabrics and rich detailing that incorporate a classic color palette of blue, black and grey with a thoroughly modern twist of blue and pink detailing on key performance items marking CR7's individuality.

The grey crew neck sweatshirt features suede elbow patches as well as a subtle embossed leather patch logo, while the clean, button-down Saturday Jacket (in off white and blue) boasts a similar logo, leather drawstrings, button closures and front pockets. The water-resistant fabric and zipper keep wet weather at bay.

The Track Jacket incorporates advanced front blocking, and each piece within the collection is precisely cut. The CR7 t-shirt confidently proclaims the Ĺ›Love to win, hate to loseĹĄ attitude with a bold emblem, while the core t-shirt takes a more literal approach, writing out the mantra in ornate Portuguese calligraphy that speaks to Cristiano's heritage.'  A Wardour Max 1 chukka boot takes a running classic and adds an urban twist with fresh colors inspired by the Mercurial Vapor VIII boot.

The CR Collection will be available at retail from November 15th.
