1995 Ken Griffey Jr. Seattle Mariners Game-Used & Autographed Cleats
(JSA • PSA/DNA)
Ken Griffey Jr.’s Iconic Game-Used Nike Cleats
A Legendary Career Highlighted by Historic Achievements
Ken Griffey Jr., a name synonymous with baseball excellence, was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2016. His induction was nothing short of historic, as he shattered Tom Seaver’s record for the highest percentage of votes received. This remarkable achievement underscores Griffey’s enduring legacy in the world of baseball.
The Cleats: A Testament to Griffey’s Greatness
Among the most coveted pieces of baseball memorabilia are the Nike-manufactured black cleats with northwest green trim, worn by Griffey. Each cleat is adorned with a white Nike logo on both sides, while the tongue proudly displays “JR.” The number “24,” Griffey’s iconic jersey number, is embroidered in silver stitching on each heel. The back of each cleat features the word “AIR” with a Nike logo above, embroidered in white stitching.
Authenticity and Provenance
These cleats are not only visually striking but also come with impeccable provenance. The right-footed cleat bears the PSA/DNA sticker “D43618,” while the left-footed cleat carries the sticker “D43617.” Griffey himself signed each cleat in silver pen, with the signatures rating a 7 overall in our expert opinion. These cleats are properly tagged, were presented to us as game-used, and in our opinion, show appropriate use. They are accompanied by an LOA from JSA, two PSA/DNA COAs (one for each cleat), a photo, and an additional LOA.
