Performance basketball is about to look very different this season. While Nike, adidas, and JB still dominate the NBA hardwood and most amateur levels beneath, new entries are sure to shake up the scene. Even if you’re a loyalist to the big three brands, this competiton will do more than just create diversity on Kicks On Court, it will also increase innovation and make prices more competitive.

Igor Vovkovinskiy should be a happy man; Reebok has fulfilled its promise to the gentle giant who lays claim to being the tallest man in America and gifted him a pair of custom-made sneakers costing a cool $25 thousand.

Igor has not been able to wear comfortable football sneakers since he was in sixth grade and at 7.83 feet tall, he dwarfs NBA players including those of the Minnesota Timbervolves, his favorite NBA team. Igor is confident that the specially designed tennis shoes will give his feet some much needed relief; the tall guy has had to undergo sixteen surgeries because of foot-related issues arising from his height, weight, and strain on his feet.

I had the chance to visit Packer Shoes and meet with Mike Packer in person earlier this week. I’m fan of what they’re doing over there, namely the return of the Ewing line and this “Practice” Reebok Question.
