Earlier today, King James was highlighted in today’s edition of?Kicks of Court for rocking the “Fairfax” Nike Zoom LeBron VI. This isn?t the first time a high-profile athlete has rocked one of their previous signatures on court. In fact, a large number of players have gone back into their signature sneaker arsenal and given fans a blast from the past. Here’s A History of NBA Players Lacing Up Their Previous Signatures<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Michael Jordan<\/h2>\n Michael Jordan in the Air Jordan 1 1995 Retro\n Michael Jordan in the Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” & Black\/Cement\n Michael Jordan in the Air Jordan 9 “Cool Grey” (image via Sneaker News<\/a>)\n Michael Jordan in the Air Jordan 11 “Cool Grey” (image via Underground Soles<\/a>)\n

Kicks:<\/strong> Air Jordan 1 White\/Red-Black, Air Jordan 3 “True Blue,” Air Jordan 9 “Cool Grey,” & Air Jordan 11 “Cool Grey”<\/p>\n

Michael Jordan’s signature line stands the test of time, so why wouldn’t the G.O.A.T. go back to some retros during the later part of his career? Rocking the Retro 1s and the Cool Grey 11s in the Garden proved particularly priceless.
\n<\/p>\n

Kobe Bryant<\/h2>\n Kobe Bryant in the adidas The Kobe 1 PE (image via NBA.com)\n

Kicks:<\/strong> adidas The Kobe 1 PE<\/p>\n

Kobe Bryant rocked the adidas The Kobe 1 during his first trip to the NBA Finals, and to keep the magic, he went back to that signature. Not only did Kobe Bryant return to wearing his adidas signature during the 2001 NBA Finals against the Sixers, but also against the Nets in 2002 to cap off the three-peat.
\n<\/p>\n

Allen Iverson<\/h2>\n Allen Iverson in the Reebok Question (image via Hoopedia<\/a>)\n

Kicks:<\/strong> Reebok Question<\/p>\n

Allen Iverson playing overseas this year wasn’t the first time he brought the Reebok Question to the hardwood. During his stint with the Denver Nuggest, A.I. brought out a white and baby blue colored Question against the Milwaukee Bucks.
\n<\/p>\n

Scottie Pippen<\/h2>\n Scottie Pippen in the Nike Air Pippen 2 PE (image via Sounds White On the Phone<\/a>)\n

Kicks:<\/strong> Nike Air Pippen 2 PE<\/p>\n

Michael Jordan rocking the Air Jordan 11 “Cool Grey”? Sorry MJ, this one is for your old teammate Scottie Pippen. Whether this was planned or not is still up in the air, but Scottie and Jordan were both playing with new teams while rocking old kicks. Pippen brought back the Air Pippen 2 in PE form while playing for the Blazers in a game against the Wizards.
\n<\/p>\n

Gary Payton<\/h2>\n Gary Payton in the Nike Zoom Flight ’98 The Glove PE (image via Palm Beach Post<\/a>)\n

Kicks:<\/strong> Nike Zoom Flight ’98 The Glove PE<\/p>\n

Yes, Gary Payton has a ring, and he got it in Miami. He also rocked the Zoom Flight ’98 The Glove PE. With rumors of the The Glove returning this year, will we possibly see this PE hit retailers?
\n<\/p>\n

Alonzo Mourning<\/h2>\n Alonzo Mourning in the Nike Air Alonzo PE (image via Palm Beach Post<\/a>)\n

Kicks:<\/strong> Nike Air Alonzo PE<\/p>\n

The Nike Air Alonzo first hit retail shelves in 1997, but during the end of his playing days Mourning decided to lace these signature kicks up one more time.
\n<\/p>\n

LeBron James<\/h2>\n LeBron James in the Nike Zoom LeBron VI “Fairfax”\n

Kicks:<\/strong> Nike Zoom LeBron VI “Fairfax”<\/p>\n

LeBron James and Cleveland have had some of the best times the city has ever seen. Taking the Cavs to the NBA Finals and multiple trips deep in the Eastern Conference Playoffs, LeBron James brought those memories back back donning a previous signature last night. In the latest edition of Kicks on Court, The King rocked the “Fairfax” edition of the Nike Zoom LeBron VI. Eventually, the King would change into his latest signature, but that still hasn’t stopped Cleveland fans from wanting him back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
