Air Jordan Men's Retro III D Football Cleats (and other AJ cleats)

I can't even tell you how jealous I am of anyone that is playing high school or college football this season and has a chance to rock either pair of the above Air Jordan III football cleats.  To be honest, I don't even think I would wear these on the field because they would get too f'd up.  I'd probably just put them in a case and stare at them every day after practice.  This has me salivating for the Air Jordan 20/3 Countdown Pack that is going to be released in October.  That's just in time to give myself a nice little 30th Birthday present.  It sounds like the black/cement/varsity red version will be part of the pack.

The idea for creating cleats (baseball or football) from Air Jordans must have begun when MJ requested they be made for his short stint in the Minor Leagues after his first "retirement".  I remember him rocking the AJ IX's to match the Birmingham Barons uniforms and they looked SICK!!!  I wanted a pair to wear myself during the baseball season but they just didn't exist back then.

Over the years, many players were chosen to wear custom versions such as Derek Jeter, Terrell Owens and Randy Moss to name a few.  The best looking cleat (and Air Jordan in general) was the XI in my opinion.  Here are some more examples of Air Jordan cleats over the years:











Deion Sanders - Washington Redskins Colorway

Donovan McNabb - Philadelphia Eagles Colorway
