Being a retired professional athlete has its perks, with Hall of Fame inductees usually at the top of that list. So, it’s no surprise that Cris Carter, of Minnesota Vikings fame, was blessed with an exclusive pair of the Nike Free Trainer 5.0. Expectedly, the shoe’s upper and woven side panels are cloaked in Vikings purple, with the tongue featuring Cris Carter’s signature etched on the tongue tab. On the insoles we find fun facts about the 8x Pro Bowler and Ohio-native, in addition to the “All I Do Is Catch Touchdowns” phrase coined by sportscaster Chris Berman.
Although a simple rendition of the sneaker, how do you feel about it when given Vikings treatment to commemorate Carter’s induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame? The Nike Free Trainer 5.0 is now available to purchase or ID your own custom colorway at Nike.com.
