Pope Francis' sneaker game is about to be on point ... 'cause the pontiff just got some dope custom Nike Blazer kicks featuring The Coat of Arms -- and a one-of-a-kind wooden shoe box.
TMZ Sports has learned ... Father Jim Sichko wanted to gift Pope Francis something "special and unique" while visiting the Vatican this week ... and not the same ol' kinda present he gets all the time.
So, he hit up True Blue Customs out in Lexington, Kentucky a few weeks ago to put some kicks together for the Pope .
