To celebrate the Italian team's Euro 2020 victory, boot customizer Jordan Dawson created a special boot and glove combo for Italy's goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. Donnarumma played superbly in the Euro 2020 - he was named the player of the tournament.
The celebration boots and gloves come two and a half years after the final
Oddly enough, Donnarumma received his custom boots and gloves in December 2023, while Euro 2020 was more than two years ago. The Euro 2024 is now just half a year away.
Artist and boot customizer Jordan Dawson has also created impressive and meaningful custom boots for other great players such as Darwin Nunez, Mac Allister and Enzo Fernandez.

Special Copa Pure 2 Donnarumma Custom Boot & Gloves
The special Copa Pure 2 Donnarumma custom boot is based on the Copa Pure 2 'Marinerush' boot, with the blue color matching the Azzurri shirt. Dawson added layers of the green, white and red of the Italian flag that run along the wavy body. The three stripes are in gold to commemorate the Euro victory.
The gloves have a simpler design with three stripes in the colors of the Italian flag. They come with special printing to honor Donnarumma.
- Left Glove: 25 October 2015: the date of Donnarumma's debut in his first professional match for AC Milan
- Right Glove: Donnarumma 99: This is the first number Donnarumma wore and is also his current number.
These special boots and gloves were personally presented to Donnarumma by Dawson at Adidas' French Headquarters in Paris.
Footy Headlines expect Donnarumma to wear the boots and gloves in an upcoming match in the new year, even though nothing is confirmed yet.
