It's kind of a cool thing to look forward to each game. I can only assume he'll bring out the Penny II's and Penny Foamposites one of these days, which as a Magic fan will be a great sight to see .

Gilbert also made some headlines earlier this year for wearing a pair of low cut Jordan running shoes and a pair of Dolce & Gabbana sneakers that retail for $400...

I thought he was with Adidas? Are the players allowed to wear their competitors shoes or is it only Dwight who wears Adidas all the time even though he doesn't have to?

Adidas ended their shoe contract with Gilbert in January after the gun incident went down. He's just been wearing whatever he wants since then.

Gilbert Arenas: Shoe Mercenary

Sidenote: 90's sneakers are the best. There's no comparison.

This. Nothing beats 90's kicks. Seeing some of those shoes bring back great memories.

Those shoes alone are almost enough to make me a Arenas homer.

I loved those shoes!

It literally doesn't get any better than the Jordan's chunnyboy had and Devin1L pointed out (among other 90's kicks).

I'd put those up against any shoes from the 2000's and it wouldn't even be a contest.

Man those Scottie Pippen AIR's were/ are so fresh.

Maybe because the players were better in the 90's so the shoes were better lol.

Penny's shoes are still awesome.

Penny I are tight.

Patent leather and probably pretty bad for playing basketball lol. I just checked the website and they are being discounted for only $277 down from $395.

12's are great but the 14's will always be my favorite



guarantee he'll break these out

Until he starts rocking these bad boys not impressed

^^^ I have those in the white version. Black are way cooler

I thought those were the space jam's last night. Man I wish I had a pair. I have some other colors but not those

I loved those too!

Aside from just looking cool those were actually a really comfortable shoe.
