Sneaker News hit you up with a bunch of images of basketball shoes from other up-and-coming brands, one of them being Li Ning. The company was founded by Li Ning, an Olympic national hero of China, and his company of the same name will make its official American debut this coming Monday in Portland, where they have opened up their U.S. headquarters. One of Li Ning’s headlining endorsees is Baron Davis, who has picked up the “Beardman” nickname, as well as a signature shoe, the Li Ning BD Doom. The shoe will release this Monday with the first 50 BD Doom buyers also receiving a Beardman vinyl toy figurine autographed by B-Diddy himself. If you’ll be in the Portland area next week, stop by and get yours. More info after the jump.
