“It’s not about making the most expensive cleat,” Ciambrone told PEOPLE. “Odell’s not only a top player, but he’s a big personality, and he likes fashion, and he likes to stand out, and that’s what I like. So it just kind of all came together.”
The mesmerizing pair of shoes steal the show at a glance. Its royal blue and python yellow color combination embraced the iconic Rams motif. Furthermore, it was studded with 1,494 individual round, brilliant white diamonds that weighed 25 carats to give it a hypnotic shine.
