the 27-year-old NFLer J.D. McKissic, Washington Football Team running back is showing love to West Coast rap legends Nipsey Hussle and Tupac Shakur by honoring them with an awesome design.
So he asked California artist Joe Castro to make it happen.
Castro did an excellent job and came though with an incredibly detailed finished product. it is pretty impressive that you can easily notice Tupac’s nose ring and Nip’s famous “Prolific” tattoo. Of course, that kinda detail takes a lot of time. Joe Castro knew it would be fire on McKissic’s feet.
There is no information if the cleats will be worn on the field, but keep an eye out.
Check out Castro’s clear work here:

I remind you, that back in august 2019, Snoop Dogg compared Nipsey Hussle to Tupac Shakur
“The spirit Nipsey had was the spirit Tupac had as far as being up close and personal with the people and just… trying to give back, I think Nipsey did what Tupac could not do. I think [Nipsey] was the extension, like running the 440 relay and you pass the baton.” – Snoop explained.
