Pope Leo XIV has been spotted wearing a pair of white Nike sneakers with the signature black Swoosh peeking out from under his cassock. The footage appeared in a trailer for "Leone a Roma," a Vatican News documentary marking the first anniversary of his papacy, and the internet lost it immediately. Sneaker enthusiasts spent hours trying to identify the exact model and landed on the Nike Franchise Low, a tennis shoe originally released in the 1970s that has been out of production for years. The fact that the first American pope is rocking a deep cut vintage Nike silhouette only added to the obsession. Born Robert Prevost in Chicago, Leo grew up during the Michael Jordan era Bulls and is a lifelong White Sox fan. He was previously spotted wearing a White Sox cap shortly after his election last May. From the Sox cap to the Nikes, this is comfortably the most stylish pope in modern history. One commenter summed it up perfectly: just got blessed." #Nike #pubity #viral
