See all the amazing custom cleats and causes spotlighted by your Detroit Lions.
The NFL runs a regular community outreach campaign called My Cause My Cleats each season that allows players to wear non-regulation shoes during games in the later part of the season which are then auctioned off to support charitable causes important to those players. This year, My Cause My Cleats runs during Weeks 13 and 14, and the Detroit Lions players participating in this fundraising and awareness drive are wearing their custom cleats in Week 13 against the New Orleans Saints.
The Detroit Lions’ media folks have a number of pieces up to highlight these fantastic cleats and their associated causes. The team’s official web page has a 27-picture photo gallery showing most of the cleats that will be worn by the players. The gallery posted by the team is unfortunately missing some of Jeff Nguyen’s photos, but thankfully MLive’s Ben Raven has us covered with a more complete photo gallery (including some alternate angles of some pairs).
Info about the players and staff on this year’s squad taking part is in the table below. This table incorporates some information on the league’s event web page and some “educated guesses” based on photos of the cleats:
