    Dwight Howard signed with the Houston Rockets this summer in free agency, but business rolls on. Howard’s shoe sponsor is rolling out his new shoe that features red and yellow, the colors of Howard’s new team the Rockets.

    From Adidas:

    “The spiral wave design on the shoe’s upper is inspired by Dwight’s playing style and how he circles the paint protecting the rim by blocking shots and grabbing rebounds. The bright color palette of this Yellow-Gold-Blue colorway was selected to match Dwight’s personality while the tongue and three-stripes branding both feature a chrome treatment to stand out on the court.”

    The shoe is called the ‘D Howard 4′ and will be released on November 1st as the season gets under way.

    The black lifted hole looks like a huge mole on an otherwise good-looking shoe.

    The parrot comparison is pretty good. Whoever is wearing these will definitely stand out like a sore thumb.

    Wait, Dwight Howard plays for the Astros? Didn't think that owner could afford a salary like that.
