adidas Baseball Unveils Special Edition Jackie Robinson Cleats

adidas Baseball celebrates the revolutionary career of Jackie Robinson with two special cleats for Jackie Robinson Day on April 15th. The adidas Afterburner 2 and Energy Boost Icon 2 each get special premium makeovers featuring graphics that include Jackie himself sliding into second base and newspaper style headlines from his game-changing career on and off the field. Each also features heather wool paneling inspired by the wool uniforms players wore in the 1940s, while Robinson’s universally retired #42 is embroidered at each medial heel. Each special edition cleat will release April 15th in limited quantities at adidas.com and be worn by adidas-sponsored MLB players on Jackie Robinson Day.
