Veteran UFC commentator Joe Rogan, who has been with the promotion for almost three decades, is known to be passionate about shoes. He’s been seen sporting some iconic sneakers and shoes of other sorts during several of his UFC appearances. And UFC 300 was no different. The mega event holds a special place for the podcasted and he almost broke into tears. Having worked for the promotion from the time when the sport of MMA was vilified by the masses to now when the UFC has grown to be the most popular MMA organization in the world, it was an emotional moment for Rogan. And he made it more special by sporting unique custom-made boots.

The 56-year-old decided to wear special edition boots specially made for him by Origin USA to mark the historic event. He seemed overjoyed to see the craftsmanship and a video clip of his reaction when he received the boots has surfaced on social media.

Joe Rogan was flabbergasted after witnessing the final product

The Origin USA team mentioned that crafting the custom boots for the YouTuber posed some challenges. Despite facing setbacks during the process, they managed to complete the project. Additionally, Joe Rogan expressed his excitement upon receiving the shoes before UFC 300; appreciating the arrow patterns, which were added since he hunted down the elk with a bow, and being pleased with the overall boot design.

“Oh, that’s the arrow hole! That’s crazy [and] that’s amazing. That is so cool, that’s the coolest thing ever,” stated a surprised Joe Rogan. The 56-year-old confidently sported those shoes during the UFC 300 weigh-ins. Surprisingly, this was not the first time he received a custom shoe. A YouTuber known as ‘Marko’ had also presented him with a pair of elk skin shoes tailored to reflect Joe Rogan’s preferences, such as his passions and pastimes before UFC 292.

In a video clip shared by ‘The JRE Companion’ account, a member of Origin USA mentioned that Joe Rogan had hunted an elk in 2023. The UFC commentator approached the shoemakers to make a customized boot for him with the skin of the elk he had hunted. The Origin USA member stated, “Last year, Joe Rogan shot a massive elk and asked us if we could turn the hide into a pair of American-made elk leather boots.”

To add a little spice to the design of the boots, Origin USA team members decided to make use of the arrow holes on the elk’s skin in an attempt to surprise Joe Rogan. “When we got the hide, we noticed that the holes from Joe’s arrow made it through the tanning process, which gave us a unique idea,” they added. It was a moment to remember when Joe Rogan finally got his hands on the custom elk skin boots.

Joe Rogan, besides being a martial arts enthusiast, is also a lover of fashion. Fans have witnessed him sporting different eye-catching outfits during UFC events, especially his range of shoe collections.
