If your favorite school is signed with the Jordan Brand, expect your favorite plays to be wearing some heat.

Ahead of the 2024 college football season, the Florida Gators have received some interesting apparel from their uniform partner — including two custom cleats featuring a Gators-themed colorway.

They now have their very own version of the classic Jordan 1 Low and Jordan 3 Force in football cleat version. Check them out below:

The Jordan 1 features blue as it’s main color in what appears to be a suade version of the cleat while featuring an orange swoosh with the classic ‘Air Jordan’ logo with the basketball and wings in the back. Orange is dotted across the heel.

For the Force’s, they feature a main blue color as well. This shoe was positioned differently from the 1, and Florida’s logo can be seen on the Jordan 3’s tongue. The grey and white elephant print adds flavor at the heel and toe cap. An orange Nike tag finishes off a look that would look great in any Florida fan’s collection — or on the feet of some Gators football players (without the tag, of course).

Most recently, Florida unveiled another version of a low-cut Jordan 1, this time with an EA Sports collab on July 19, the release day of EA Sports College Football 25 to help promote the game. It’s just one of many ways the Jordan Brand and Florida have come together to make some unique apparel since joining forces in 2017.

If you look good, you feel good and you play good. That’s the theory, anyway. Given that the Gators boast the toughest schedule in the NCAA this fall — an added boost in appearance doesn’t hurt anyone.

Florida will kick off its 2024 slate against Miami, the Gators will also do battle with UCF and Florida State in non-conference action. They will play Samford during Week 2 as their lone FCS matchup this season.

As for Florida’s SEC schedule, they match up against the likes of Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia, Texas, LSU and Ole Miss during the final six-game stretch of their conference slate heading into the season final against the Seminoles. Florida will begin its SEC schedule against Texas A&M and at Mississippi State during Weeks 3 and 4.

After 2023’s 5-7 finish, the Florida Gators will certainly have their work cut out for them during the 2024 season.
