The NFL banned “Bane” and “Shredder” facemasks a few years back, but Khalil Mack hasn’t forgotten his favored protective gear.

The All-Pro pass rusher showed off some awesome cleats Sunday, which feature Bane on the heel and a reflective surface running along the bottom.

We all know offensive linemen around the league view Mack as the bane of their existence. He’s one of the baddest dudes on the field, no matter who else is playing.
These sick cleats are just a reminder of that fact, and that the NFL should reconsider its ban on the facemask that would be ever so fitting for the Oakland Raiders defender.
