WATCH: Aaron Judge’s Stylish Cleats Get Painted For Opening Day At Yankee Stadium

The New York Yankees had one of their greatest starts to the season, winning 2 of their opening three encounters against the Boston Red Sox. And while the streak may not have lasted for too long afterward, their Opening Day encounter was one to remember.

Culminating in a 6-5 win for the home side in an extra-innings face-off, The Yankees walked off victorious. Star player Aaron Judge’s cleats were a topic of discussion for many. Sporting a New York City motif, a video revealed how the cleats were painted for the superstar.

While most superstars would’ve been eager to get going after the lockout lengthened off-season, Judge seemed ready to take the field again, but why should stye ever be a compromise? With the right fielder returning to the Bronx to start the season, he took it upon himself to up the style quotient.

Also, the cleats seemed to be just the luck they needed. With an intricate paint-job to go with some personalization, they certainly are ones any Yankees fan would pay to have.

The painting of the cleats

With the shoes just resembling an ordinary black and white cleat sported by most of the league, these needed something special. These needed something to showcase them being worn by a true Yankee. And that stylization is something they got in due measure.

Personalization on the shoe

With the cleats taking shape step by step, they saw several features being added on. To start off, the New York skyline is added on the sides of the shoe. Moreover, the video also sees a version of the American flag; plastered across the other side of the shoe with prominent stars and stripes. With the city motif in place, the video then moves on to Judge and some personalization.

Also featuring his uniform #99 with a prominent ‘A’ (presumably for Aaron), painted on top of the New York skyline, it’s clear who the shoes belong to. And as if to make it more obvious, a pinstriped #99 too is added to the heel.

All that’s remaining is to add Pinstripes and theme the shoe for the Bronx and make it a piece of art. The cleats are definitely some of the most impressive designs on the show, and could definitely adorn some display cabinets should it so come to it.
