The Miami Marlins 10-1 beatdown of the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday night was worthy of a celebration. After missing 38 games with a right turf toe injury, MLB All-Star Jazz Chisholm returned to provide three RBIs in the winning effort.
With all eyes on Chisholm's feet, Jordan Brand made sure their star athlete looked good in his first game back. The Marlins center fielder debuted never-before-seen cleats in a player-exclusive ice cream colorway that left sneakerheads drooling.
To celebrate Chisholm's return to action, Jordan Brand designer Ryan Smith and his team cooked up a pair of Air Jordan cleats that have a legitimate claim as the best footwear ever worn on a baseball field.
The Air Jordan 1 cleats contain a waffle pattern that wraps from the heel to the toe, with a pink leather upper and Swoosh logo featuring a sprinkle design. The white leather midsole and laces provide the icing on the cake.

Chisholm is one of a select few Jordan Brand athletes in MLB, and fans can easily understand the perks of joining such an exclusive club. The "Sundae" colorway appears to be a one-of-one and will never release to the public.
While that is disheartening, there is a silver lining for sneakerheads. There are plenty of Air Jordan 1 sneakers available in different styles and colorways on the Nike website. Fans can easily find a style that fits their team's colors for their next trip to the ballpark.
Luckily for baseball fans, the season isn't even halfway over. Jordan Brand is guaranteed to cook up more fire colorways as the season heats up. Stay locked into FanNation Kicks to learn more about what your favorite athletes wear on and off the field.
