Today, the game of baseball is yielding a bumper crop of excellent young shortstops, and Houston Astros superstar Carlos Correa stands out as one of the most talented. The 2015 American League Rookie of the Year, Correa was instrumental in leading the Astros to their first ever World Series title during the 2017 Postseason. Correa experienced his best season as a pro in 2017, making his first career All-Star team and showcasing his rare power for a shortstop (29 home runs in the regular and postseason combined) while consistently putting balls in play for a .315 batting average. The 6’4” native of Puerto Rico is a rangy fielder with a cannon of an arm and the savvy to remain one of baseball’s best players for years to come.
Correa wore these Adidas cleats during the 2016 season, his sophomore campaign in the big leagues. The cleats are black and white, with a fearsome lion design applied to the outside of the front of the cleats. The laces are orange, and an orange Adidas logo is applied to the tongue. The soles of the cleats are black and white, with seven stainless-steel spikes and two rubber cleats. An orange Adidas logo is applied to the heel of the cleats. Correa has signed the toe of each cleat in black marker. These cleats show excellent use, and come with a COA from JT Sports and a signed LOA from Carlos Correa, Sr. for game use, and a LOA from SGC for the signatures (AA03109).
