Since then, he wore it throughout the remainder of the 2009-09 NBA season and throughout this season. However, Ellis wore a new AND1 sneaker a couple of nights ago. Monta Ellis wore a PE version of the AND1 Disciple Mid in a game against the Chicago Bulls a last week. This newly-designed AND1 basketball sneaker features a red patent leather finishing around the toe area, collar and heel panel. On the contrary, red leather makes up the entire midfoot. Other features include Ellis’s logo on the sides of the shoe and other various white accents throughout the base. Unfortunately, this shoe will not be available for purchase. If so, what you grab a pair? Click here to view more photos. | Read the rest of AND1 Disciple Mid Monta Ellis PE

| adidas TS Supernatural Commander “Magic Beast” Posted: 11 Dec 2009 12:28 PM PST  Dwight Howard may have taken the “Superman” nickname from Shaq a few years back, but the Magic team colors have kept him from wearing the same colors as The Man of Steel. That will all change on Christmas Day though, as Dwight is scheduled to debut these adidas TS Supernatural Commanders against the Boston Celtics. The first attribute you’ll notice is the set of bright yellow and red stripes on the midfoot. The red outlines compliment the outsole and area near the ankle, which is done up in suede. The black leather upper, which is complimented itself by blue on the lower portion, features speckled print in white. The print is reminiscent of stars in the sky, an ode to the “Supernatural” name. Finally, Chinese text is featured on the tongue. | Read the rest of adidas TS Supernatural Commander “Magic Beast”
