Signature sneakers get the showcase treatment on the basketball court and the shoe shelves. Sometimes though, the coveted kicks get cameo credit when rocked on the big screen. In the spirit of April Fool?s Day, we take a look back at some of the best star powered shoes to pop up in funny films.<\/p>\n image via Cineplex<\/a>\n image via Flight Club<\/a>\n

Movie:<\/strong> Drumline<\/em>
\nKicks:<\/strong> Nike Air Garnett III White\/Navy<\/p>\n

Despite the latter success of Wild?n Out, Kevin Garnett is still regarded as a more ruthless trash talker than Nick Cannon. Cannon embodied KG’s attitude by wearing the Nike Air Garnett III in Drumline<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Movie:<\/strong> Mean Girls<\/em>
\nKicks:<\/strong> adidas T-Mac II Red\/Silver<\/p>\n

Tracy McGrady?s best work appeared on the hardwood, not the silver screen. Never the less, the shooting star saw his T-Mac IIs ditch gym class in the movie Mean Girls<\/em>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Movie:<\/strong> George of the Jungle<\/em>
\nKicks:<\/strong> Nike Air More Uptempo Black\/White<\/p>\n

Brendan Fraser channeled fellow swingman Scottie Pippen by getting gifted with the Nike Air More Uptempo in George of the Jungle<\/em>. The cartoony kicks stood out in the live action film.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Movie:<\/strong> The Cable Guy<\/em>
\nKicks:<\/strong> Air Jordan 2 White\/Black-Red<\/p>\n

The Air Jordan 2 ?95 Retro proved a funny man favorite in cinema, with Bill Murray breaking them out in Space Jam<\/em> and Jack Black sporting them in The Cable Guy<\/em>. There?s plenty of golden-era Nikes in this hilarious hoops scene.<\/p>\n

Movie:<\/strong> Alley Cats Strike<\/em>
\nKicks:<\/strong> Reebok Answer 1 White\/Red<\/p>\n

Were you expecting The Luck of the Irish<\/em>? While Disney?s take on Teen Wolf<\/em> meets Celtic Pride<\/em> featured another pair of Reeboks, it was Alley Cats Strike<\/em> that saw the original Answer 1. Much like the commercial for the Allen Iverson signature, this movie also featured an impossible spin move.<\/p>\n

Movie:<\/strong> Little Monsters<\/em>
\nKicks:<\/strong> Air Jordan 3 “Fire Red”<\/p>\n

Howie Mandel may have worn some loud Nikes in his standup days, but co-star Fred Savage brought the heat in Little Monsters<\/em> by rocking the ?Fire Red? 3s.<\/p>\n

Movie:<\/strong> Malibu’s Most Wanted<\/em>
\nKicks:<\/strong> Reebok X-Beam White\/Red<\/p>\n

While Jamie Kennedy got star credit in the guard-geared Nike Zoom Flight Turbine, it was co-star Kal Penn that stole the show on foot with the Steve Francis-endorsed Reebok X-Beam. Don?t be hatin?.<\/p>\n

Movie:<\/strong> Dodgeball<\/em>
\nKicks:<\/strong> Reebok Answer IV Slip On Red\/Grey<\/p>\n

Guarding Allen Iverson in a pair of shoes without laces is a bad idea. The Answer?s slip-on signatures were still enough to lift the Average Joes over Globo Gym in Dodgeball<\/em>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n image via Cineplex<\/a>\n

Movie:<\/strong> Like Mike<\/em>
\nKicks:<\/strong> Air Jordan 9 White\/Black-Red<\/p>\n

Is it the shoes? Bow Wow thought so. Morris Chestnut may have too, lacing up the retro version of the Air Jordan 9 in Like Mike<\/em>. Much like Jack Black’s Air Jordan 2s, this colorway also popped up in Space Jam<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Movie:<\/strong> BASEkeball<\/em>
\nKicks:<\/strong> adidas KB8 White\/Black<\/p>\n

Some games bring out the best in athletes. BASEketball<\/em> is not one of those games. While Coop and Remer may not have won any sportsmanship awards, they did earn their stripes in the adidas KB8.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
