Michael Phelps’ shoes include reminder of newborn son

Aug 4, 2016, 10:42 AM

Michael Phelps is competing in the Olympics — again — and he is sporting some stylish kicks along the way.

The 31-year-old American swimmer, who holds the all-time record for most Olympic medals, now has custom Under Armour shoes. But it’s what’s on the inside that made these extra special for Phelps:

Boomer is the name of Phelps’ son with his fiancee Nicole, who can both watch Michael swim next week in Rio.

In addition to being a new father, Phelps is also now a swim coach with Arizona State University.
