Remember those awesome adidas baseball cleats the company made for Chicago Cubs’ slugger Kris Bryant? Well now you have the chance to purchase the entire pack.
adidas Baseball revealed the new “Celebration Pack” of cleats that celebrate the teams advancing to the 2016 MLB Playoffs. That includes Bryant and the Cubs, who wrapped up the NL Central and home field advantage in the NL Playoffs recently.
The pack includes two signature cleats, the 2017 adizero Afterburner 3 and 2017 Energy Boost Icon 2, in some awesome colors. Yep, even in the “champagne” colorway that we showed you for Bryant:

Here’s more on the adizero Afterburner 3 via adidas:
Engineered for the game’s fastest 5-tool players, the adizero Afterburner 3 is the lightest cleat in the game at 9.3 oz. This iteration features a textured droplet anodized upper that looks like it’s still wet and covered actual drops of liquid – as if it were straight from the scenes of locker room celebrations. The droplets are so realistic, they look like they actually change color and shape in different lighting.
The shoe also features cork on the tongue, three stripes on the side and midsole. The smooth green and gold colorway finishes off a sleek design.
Then there is the Energy Boost Icon 2:
The new Energy Boost Icon 2 features a redesigned upper with a street-inspired, TECHFIT bootie and a molded heel clip with a metallic bubble treatment that pops off the championship inspiration into the pull tabs, which are infused with cork. Additionally, The front pull tab hosts “Millesime” in metallic gold, a French term meaning “a good year or a great vintage.”
adidas will make the pack available on Oct. 3 online and at select retailers. The pack includes five different colorways in both the Afterburner 3 and Boost Icon 2.
