New York Giants receivers Victor Cruz and Odell Beckham Jr. will wear special Nike Cleats designed by Kickasso this Sunday. The cleats are made for the 15th Anniversary of 9/11.
“It’s a special cleat for a couple reasons. I mean opening day is on 9/11,” said Troy Cole, Kickasso’s owner. “And Odell wanted to pay tribute to the heroes of 9/11, and not toward the tragedy aspect, with the falling building and the heroes all around kind of helping and saving people. That is why it’s kind of special and going to be pretty cool.”
The Giants’ coaches and staff also plan to wear special 9/11 pins to honor the fallen and as a reminder of the tragedy that cost thousands of lives. Some players may be wearing special 9/11 gloves.
