    Is he still with Spalding?

    Why do you want to buy those ugly shoes he wears?

    I remember sitting in PE one day during 6th grade and have one of my best friends turn to me and go "How come Hakeem has such crappy shoes? Spalding?"

    So how exactly did Hakeem end up with Spalding?

    Hakeem signed on with Etonic, Spalding, and maybe other crappy shoes because he thought the prices of basketball shoes were getting too high. This was back when Jordan's were really taking off at $110. He said he wanted any kid who wanted his shoes to be able to afford them. Unfortunately, he probably got quite a few kids beaten up. At least his heart was in the right place.

    LA Gear use to be one of the more popular brands, if I remember correctly. They had a few famous basketball players wearing their sneakers, didn't they?
