Dubai - Kylian Mbappe has made his football debut wearing shoes from Swiss brand On, as the Real Madrid forward joined the company as a global ambassador and equity partner. The 25-year-old, who has been with Nike since childhood, switched from Nike to On during France's UEFA Nations League match against Turkey on September 25, 2026.
Mbappe was closely involved in developing and testing the On prototype boots, including the LightSpray technology designed to create ultra-lightweight footwear. He is now actively working with On's product teams to further refine the football range, which is set to launch its first commercial boots in 2027. Mbappe's appearance in On boots at the Kocaeli Stadium in Izmit marked a significant milestone in On's entry into the football market, with Thierry Henry recently appointed as the brand's director of football.
