NBA All-Star Game Heat from Nike


As always, Nike is treating us to some special releases for the upcoming NBA All-Star game. Here's what will be on the feet of Lebron, Kobe and Kevin Durant.


My favorites were the All Star Lebron 8 V2s... just gorgeous.



The Kobe VIs with special All Star box. They don't stand out from his other VIs as much as I would expect, although the hologram on the tongue is cool. (All 3 of these shoes have holograms on the tongue featuring the player's logo and the East/West logo.)



The Nike Zoom KD IIIs (aka, Durants) were extremely lightweight, although the look and feel was too plastic-y for me.



The beauty of the box was hard for this amateur photographer to capture. It has a striped plastic casing, so when you pull the box out of the sleeve, it appears animated! Great use of old school animation technology. Nice touch for a game played next door to Hollywood...

South Beach/PreHeat Lebron 8 midnight drop - Footaction 34st NYC

The line went around the corner for the PreHeat Lebron 8 drop. Just wish someone would have turned on some HEAT! Cold November nights in NYC
Footaction flagship store on 34th St. Down the block from the Mecca of Basketball-Madison Square Garden
A lucky camper shows off the box design
Looking no worse for his time spent on line, this guy makes his way out the store with his new kicks
If you haven't seen this guy out camping for kicks, you probably don't camp or you are wayyyyy in the back of the line. Another successful cop for the man B.
