I have those plus T-Mac's jersey sittin' in the closet.

Next Magic game I go to I might rock that 'fit, it's just extra baggy since it's from that early 2000's era :lol: .

Ha great thread. I'll be following this for sure.

I've noticed he wore different shoes so far. Kinda cool.

A little OT, but it reminds me when Artest wore a few different pairs mismatched at the '04 All-Star Game, (oh and who can forget the Red/Blue combo T-Mac wore. I got the blue pair of them. So comfy, much like the II's)

I had the air uptempos 15 years ago and they were the third best pair of shoes I owned. They were awesome shoes at that time.

I loved those too!

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



I had these ones, one of my favorite basketball shoes. An I agree Dev, they were great to play in. Very comfy.

He needs to wear the shoes that make him chuck the less.

We need him to get shots up. If we got him just to pass and play D, this would be the worst trade ever. His talent as a scorer is the weapon we have been lacking the last few playoff runs.

Arrived a bit late to the game since my gf was taking too long to get ready, but here are some pics from her phone at the Bucks game. I'm not a big sneaker guy, but they looked like Iverson's to me. Might be completely wrong. Not sure. It would be nice to get a timeline of what shoes he's worn...

Yeah, I may be a huge Grant hill homer, but I was never a big fan of their designs. They did come up with one good style for him though, but the rest, were pretty meh.

Yup, you are Exactly right. Arenas rocked Iverson's shoe he wore as a rookie, the Reebok "Question" against Milwaukee on Wednesday. In the first half he wore the all blue colorway shown below but actually changed into a different colorway of the same shoe at halftime.

Against the Golden State Warriors on Monday, Gil wore the Nike Zoom Flight 95

Yeah I could've sworn the ones I saw were white. I didn't catch the blue ones he wore in the first half on TV. Someone also mentioned that he switched from Penny I's to CMFT 12's in the second half vs. Dallas. It looks like Gilbert is switching his shoes whenever he has a bad half, because those two games were his worst :D

I'm also a little confused by the blue Questions he wore though. Is that a player exclusive? I have never seen that colorway before.

Well Done, Gil

Just did a search to see if anyone else was following his shoe lineup and stumbled across this site...

Definitely expecting to see him sport the Foamposites again...
