These offered Nike cleats were worn in college by Titans starting quarterback Marcus Mariota during the 2013 season. As a sophomore for the Ducks, the Hawaii native threw for 3,665 yards with 31 touchdowns and just 4 interceptions, leading #10 Oregon to an 11-2 record and a 30-7 victory over Texas in the Alamo Bowl. The following year, he would win the Heisman Trophy and take his team to the National Title game against Ohio State.
The green and yellow Nike Flyware 'Alpha Pro' cleats exhibit a ton of wear with turf staining and contact marks all over the exterior. The bottoms are covered with field turf remnants and there is obvious sock sweating on the insoles. The size 13 shoes are properly tagged by Nike on the interior. The Oregon "O" adorns the tongues and heels. Mariota's uniform number "8" is handwritten in black marker at the base of each inner-facing heel. For good measure, the Heisman winner has autographed the left cleat on the outer toes in 8-9/10 green marker. This pair was sourced directly from the Oregon team's annual spring sale in 2014. An official Marcus Mariota hologram sticker is affixed to the heel of the right shoe. Autograph pre-certified by PSA/DNA.
