Kobe Bryant was an NBA icon in every aspect of the word and impacted the game of basketball in a way not many other athletes have over the span of two decades.
That’s not where his reach stopped, though.
Tributes have been pouring in for Bryant from all over the sports world, including football. During the biggest week of the league year, NFL players have been paying homage to Bryant since he passed away last week.
The latest player to show Bryant love from the football world is Emmanuel Sanders. Ahead of the 49ers Super Bowl appearance on Sunday, Sanders shared a pair of customized cleats with art honoring Bryant on them.
One shoe has a drawing of Bryant wearing a crown on on it and the other has both of Bryant’s numbers — 24 and 8 — on it. Aside from the great tribute this is from Sanders, these are just pretty dope cleats.
The artwork is fly and they also match the 49ers’ team colors, which means he should be able to wear them for the Super Bowl. Keep an eye out for them.
