The latest edition of Sneaker Watch captures some creative colorways. It’s hard to deny Gilbert Arenas’ diversity in choice of footwear this season but somehow he was able to outdo himself against the Lakers. Arenas set foot on the floor of the Staples Center in a pair of Dolce & Gabbana sneakers, while his teammate John Wall unveiled a unique colorway of Reebok Zig Slash. Other impressive sneakers this week include J.R. Smith’s bright yellow Nike Zoom Kobe V ID and rookie Derrick Favors’ and Brook Lopez’ adidas TS Heat Check Player Exclusive colorways looking very similar. Last but not least, Jordan laced Mike Bibby and Nate Robinson in upcoming colorways of the Jordan Retro 13.
Check out some of the photos from around league below courtesy of Yahoo.

Hot to see the XIIIs in action!
Dolce & Gabanna??? WTF???
The “Thriller” Heat Check belongs to Brook Lopez (note the white ankle in the photo).
Original caption… “ATLANTA, GA – DECEMBER 07: Derrick Favors #14 and Brook Lopez #11 of the New Jersey Nets get their feet tangled during defense against the Atlanta Hawks at Philips Arena on December 7, 2010 in Atlanta, Georgia.”
Nates Altitudes are the 05 release.
@b21- Thanks for the heads up!
Good catch on the Heat Checks. Why is Brook called Thriller?
Why would Brook Lopez’s left shoe say D-Fav then???
So Brook and Favors each swapped one shoe?
Nate Wins!!!
I love the M7s in the all black colorway. The alts by Nate are nice too.
@LOVEtheXIV you’re right, good catch. Those altitudes and Smith’s Kobe IDs go hard. Don’t know what to think about those D&Gs, though…
Favor’s Heat Checks are so sick. Feeling the XIIIs here too, especially the Altitudes
nobody swapped shoes. those are two right feet. unless one of the players plays with two right shoes. : D
besides, i don’t think a normal person could hold his feet like that. unless one of them is broken…
I’m loving the Dolce’s
Hmm, Nate Robison Throwing up illuminati signs? …. truee.
Or maybe Nate just sank a 3 pointer? Ya’ll need to stop with the illuminati junk…..
The Adidas Adizero Rose look nice.
