NFL player gets custom Nike Skittles shoes

Shoes worn by Marshawn Lynch in Seahawks game

Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch has been working overtime to adopt the nickname the Candy Man, downing handfuls of Skittles after every touchdown. But now Nike has honored his sweet tooth with a new pair of custom Skittles shoes.

Nike posted an image of the shoes, featuring fruit-flavored candy graphics along their sides, on its Twitter account @usnikefootball.

According to the blog Seattlepi.com, Lynch wore the shoes Saturday in the Seahawks game against the San Francisco 49ers.

However, it doesn't seem like the Seahawks have "experienced the rainbow" of good luck offered by the Skittles shoes, losing at home 19-17.
