Nike sent the rare collectible for Speed to keep, and he loved every bit. Appearing on Complex’s Sneaker Shopping, he said, “I just smelt the entire boot because like I thought about it right. I think Ronaldo touched those before it got sent. It really didn’t make sense because, like theoretically, it just can’t happen. So that was my theory, and it was just an amazing feeling.”

Then, the show’s host, Joe La Pruma, revealed how Ronaldo himself could have signed it off. He said, “Because he gotta sign off on someone getting them early, I’m sure.” Speed realized this and explained how he failed to realize this theory.
Speed stated, “Wait, I didn’t even think about that. So in that case, Ronaldo was like you know what, let’s have Speed get the boot. I never thought about that. Ronaldo approved them.” It became a memorable day for Speed, who received one of the best Ronaldo boots on the market.
