Victor Cruz Celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month in Custom Cleats

Cruz wears his pride on his cleats.

Among the many things being observed in October is National Hispanic Heritage Month, a celebration of Hispanic and Latino Americans' rich cultural contributions. New York Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz, whose mother is Puerto Rican, is planning on honoring his heritage with a pair of custom Nike cleats today.

The work of top cleat customizer Kickasso, Cruz's "Hispanic Heritage" cleats feature the flags of Hispanic countries within the forefoot Swoosh logos. As a direct nod to Puerto Rico, the cleats are styled in the island's colors, with its flag printed on the cleat plates.

Look for these festive cleats during pregame warm-ups tonight and possible during the Giants' Sunday night game against the Packers.
