Nike announces Mike Trout Signature Cleat

[Richard]

First baseball player since Ken Griffey Jr. to have his own Nike signature line:

Will it smell like Trout's feet?

 

Asking for a friend, of course

does your friend rhyme with PDAWG87? 

[Second Base]

Nike Lunar Vapor Trout. That's a lot to say, but this cleat looks awesome. I remember having the second generation Griffey's with the huge silver and green Nike swoosh across the front that protected the laces. My second favorites ever.

I wonder if the next generation of ball players will marvel about the "Trouts" they used to wear.

The money just keeps on coming ... nice

So does this mean Trout will be wearing neon green under his Angels uni?  

[QuinlansMinion]

Guaranteed to make you a champion.

 

Until your bullpen comes in and blows it.

Garbage cleats. If only Asics or New Balance offered up the $$$$$ to sign Trout.

He got some customs for his Angels uni

Okay, those look cool. 

[gotbeer]

and those need to be raffled/auctioned at fanfest.

Would you guys think I was weird if I just bought those for normal non-baseball use?

But seriously, I have a vivid memory of being 10 years old, and watching my brother walk up the street at dusk, coming home from baseball practice, still wearing his cleats, and watching the spark fly with every step. Not sure why I wrote this, just a baseball cleat memory.

Would have been sick if they just made these again and put his name on them:

 

[TooCool]

Attaboy Trout. Congrats.

[Fresh Catch Trout]

These are sick !

[Michael Pellicciotti]

Do we still have to pay him??

Get used to it guys, plenty more where that came from.

 

I can already see him endorsing arthritis medication and a new form of Viagra in 20-30 years.

Those kicks look great, and the design seems pretty sound.  I like the directional-cleat for faster push-off, the accordion-design for longer-wear, and the covered-toes for durability.

 

I'll check them out (the red would be perfect for us LB Angels!), but the $140 price-tag is a bit high.  Luckily, I just bought some new Under Armours..

He should have a street/running shoe, or a molded version, or both.
