Will any ‘Pack’ release top the 2012 All-Star Collection? The 2013 Pack is a worthy effort, but the ‘Galaxy’ still reigns supreme as it introduced a whole new set of concepts for basketball shoes in terms of graphic options, colorways, and the sheer abuse of details. In China, during the “Battle of Guangzhou” event, Nike Basketball released a super-limited edition Nike 2012 All-Star Galaxy Pack that included all three shoes, an incredible three-tiered box, and a gold hangtag that individually numbered all fifteen units. We’ve never seen a pair up for sale until now, so check out the gallery below and check out the asking price from this listing from iglootrailercenter on eBay.

Throughout the history of the NBA, no other ‘sneaker history’ is as eventful and engrossing as that of Kobe Bryant. Sure, MJ had the Air Jordan line and LeBron James is currently etching out his own legacy, but Kobe Bryant’s timeline of kicks goes up and down, left and right, covering two signature lines with two brands and a jaw-dropping load of Player Exclusives. Starting with his iconoclastic adidas The Kobe signature line, his stint rocking Nike Basketball and Air Jordan PEs, the relatively unknown period during which Kobe rocked Reebok PEs (yes, the Answer IV and the Question), and stopping at his current Nike Kobe 8 model, there’s a lot to talk about. This sick showcase of Kobe Bryant’s kicks covers a good portion of what’s been laid out, and what’s more impressive is that these shoes are not only game-worn, but also autographed. Flip through below and let us know which of the shoes featured below gets you excited the most!

For better or worse, 2012 was a defining year for the sneaker world and all that it encompasses. It was a year that saw certain shoes throw the laws of supply and demand so out of whack, that brands and retailers had to completely rethink the way they sell shoes to the public just to keep the peace. If you were willing to put in some legwork or, better yet, had the right connections, it was a banner year for sneaker enthusiasts. “Must-have” releases seemed to be at an all-time high and nearly every weekend offered up some sort of temptation for consumers. 2012 saw the release of some of the most eagerly anticipated and passionately sought-after sneakers the game had ever seen and it’s safe to say that things will never be the same again.
In between those, there were plenty of other desirable targets along the way, from the special limited editions and collaborations to beloved Retro returns and promising new designs and innovations. There were even a few certified sleeper hits that organically carved out their place among the year’s best releases. Due to an exponentially expanding consumer base and a heightened level of product awareness, you might not have been able to get your hands on every shoe you hunted for in 2012, but there was certainly no shortage of solid alternatives ripe for the picking in their absence.

Two different colored shoes? That’s as much of a ‘What The’ as the actual What The Kobe shoes. We’ve seen Kobe rock these in-game a few times already, mesmerizing defenders with his feet thanks to the yin-yang organization of yellow and purple on opposite sides. These were initially called the ‘Snakepool’ joints due to its resemblance to the first Hyperdunk from 2008 that earned that name, but considering that applies to just half of the pair, Yin Yang seems to be a more appropriate moniker. Whatever the nickname you decide, be sure to cop them tomorrow at Nike Basketball retailers, or right now from 2xwashoes on eBay.

The second night of Opening Games for the 2012-13 NBA Season went down last night, but it could it be up to par of Tuesday night’s showcase of Gold LeBron X PEs, Pink Foamposites, and Ray’s XVI? You tell us. Starting off, we saw the Metallic Red Foams on the feet of Lamar Odom as well as J.J. Hickson, while Kobe rocked a PE/iD colorway of the Zoom Kobe VII. Nate Robinson wore three (yes, THREE) different Air Jordan Retros, Demar DeRozan whipped out the Air Jordan IV ‘Black Cat’, and Jared Jeffries (not pictured), wore the Air Jordan XI ‘Bred’. There’s plenty more to see, so check out a recap of last night’s game and stay tuned to Sneaker News for more NBA Feet coverage!

Basketball is back! Sneaker News already gave you the low-down the LeBron’s ‘Gold’ PE, Rajon’s Pink Foams, and Ray’s Air Jordan XVI PE, but what about the rest? Only three games went down, but there was plenty to cover; Dwyane Wade debuted the Li-Ning Way of Wade ‘Dynasty’, while Kobe rocked the Court Purple/University Gold Kobe VII in a losing effort against the Mavericks. His teammate Steve Nash wore the Lunar Hypergamer Low, and Dwight wore the adiPower Howard 3 in a Lakers colorway. In match-up between up-and-coming Cleveland and Washington, Jordan Crawford of the Wizards didn’t miss a beat from last season and wore the Air Jordan XI Low. Kyrie Irving got down with the Lunar Hyperdunk PE. A complete look at the first night of 2012-2013 NBA Season is right ahead, so take a look!
