The 2012 MLB All-Star Game had some stylin' moments, thanks to Under Armour unveiling their Spine Highlight Collection.

A total of eleven UA sponsored athletes took to the field at Kansas City’s Kauffman Stadium, including rookie phenom Bryce Harper (currently the official reviewer of the cleat).

Embellished with brilliant detail for baseball, the flashy design draws inspiration from Kauffman Stadium itself. The gilded cleat is based off the gold crown in the stadium’s outfield, while the sock liners are imprinted imagery from the iconic stadium fountain— Pretty fancy stuff. The high-top design makes this a unique cleat, along with the UA Compfit upper for a snug fit and increased mobility, and the much anticipated spine-like outsole for maximum support.

Unfortunately the cleats only worked for Harper on a visual level on Thursday night, as he went 0-for-1 at the plate.

The kicks will be available on November 1st in 5 colorways at UA and select retailers.
