Jim Harbaugh wore hand-painted custom shoes to his Monday media availability in honor of the 50th anniversary of Title IX.

Title IX, a 1972 measure that prohibits discrimination based on sex in programs that receive federal funding, is a major force towards women’s athletics in college specifically.

Harbaugh was asked about his shoes, which were designed by Candy Coated Kicks, heading into the media availability.

Harbaugh’s Wolverines are a perfect 10-0 on the season with 2 final tests to pass against Illinois and Ohio State. A path to the College Football Playoff essentially demands the Wolverines to win both.

The Wolverines are set to take on Illinois Saturday at Noon on ABC.
