Remember those rad, “non-conforming” shoes that Mike Clevinger wore last month? The one’s that got him a slap on the wrist from the fun-hating Major League Baseball?
Well, if negotiations between the MLB and the MLB Player’s Association go well, he may be able to wear them — or another creative design — sometime soon.
According to Jeff Passan of Yahoo! Sports, the two sides are working on a deal to “loosen restrictions” on the type of designs that players can have on their footwear. Clevinger is the first player that comes to mind for this, as he was vocal about having his custom cleats and the fine that came afterwards.
