Stefon Diggs, wide receiver for the Houston Texans, launched his signature shoe on Wednesday. Diggs has collaborated with ASICS and will debut his shoe, ASICS GEL-NIMBUS 10.1.

The star receiver shared a post on Instagram.

"This moment for me is truly special, I have to give a shoutout to @asics for allowing me to truly expres myself with my first signature shoe. This just feels right on many levels, designing my own shoe was truly gratifying. I really leaned in on family and my brothers being my biggest motivators growing up.

Fans took to social media on both Instagram and X, expressing their opinions about the star receiver's signature shoe. Most comments were positive, with many people thinking Diggs' shoe is a must-cop. Others said this may be the first pair of ASICS they will buy.

Stefon Diggs was traded this off-season for the second time in his NFL career.

After playing four seasons with the Buffalo Bills, Diggs was traded along with a 2024 sixth-round pick and a 2025 fifth-round pick to the Houston Texans this off-season in exchange for a 2025 second-round pick.

Before the 2020 season, Diggs was traded from the Minnesota Vikings to the Bills. This season, Diggs will be on his third NFL team.

Entering his 10th NFL season, Diggs will look to make a fifth-straight Pro Bowl. He's made the Pro Bowl all four years he was with the Bills and recorded six-straight 1,000-plus-yard seasons.

Diggs will join a loaded Texans offense. Quarterback C.J. Stroud was named Rookie of the Year last season, and he joins a talented receiver room that features Nico Collins and Noah Brown.

In his first year with the Houston Texans, do you think Stefon Diggs will have another 1,000-yard season?
