On Valentine’s Day, Nate Robinson told us he’d be wearing “green shoes” for the dunk contest. During the All-Star Dunk Contest, Lil’ Nate broke out a pair of lime green pair of Nike Foamposite Lite a.k.a. “Kryptonates”, hopped over Dwight Howard and took the competition. The shoe released a month later at House of Hoops in NY, and predictably, sold out in minutes. The Nike Basketball shoe surfaced in limited numbers in Asia, and is accompanied by a t-shirt. Quantities moved quickly so your best bet for a pair is to try eBay.

Sported by Amare Stoudemire and Caron Butler, the inventive Nike Foamposite Lite is the latest installment in the brand’s venerable ‘Posite stable. Featuring an armour-esque Polyurethane upper, and external heel counter, the Lite is augmented by a Carbon Fiber shank plate and 5mm Zoom Air bag embedded in the heel. The Nike Basketball shoe is available now in a black/anthracite colorway (Expect a bevy of team-oriented schemes to drop later in ’09!) at Eastbay for $154.99.
