Whether we are looking to purchase some timeless Air Jordans or a pair of iconic Converse All-Stars, this reputable retail chain\u00a0continues to deliver. While each storefront carries a certain amount of weight, the marketing efforts of the Foot Locker brand can&#8217;t be understated, over the years they have provided some iconic advertisements that even Don Draper could appreciate. With this in mind, we conjured up a list of our ten favorite Foot Locker commercials. Stroll through the pages below and see if your favorite Foot Locker ad made our list.<\/p>\n<h2>10. Footlocker x Nike Basketball: Nike Hyperize<\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/V_hY1hgj-e0?rel=0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>During the 2009 postseason, Footlocker decided to take things back as they unveiled the &#8220;Hyperizers&#8221; faux music video featuring Mo Williams, Kevin Durant and Rashard Lewis. While things remain uncertain as to who &#8220;wrote&#8221; the actually lyrics to this comical rendition, this commercial definitely garnered some laughs and boosted the innovative <strong>Nike Hyperize<\/strong> model.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>9. Foot Locker x Reebok: Reebok Shaqnosis<\/h2>\n<p>Whether you like Tyga or not, you have to admit this commercial is pretty funny. Picking on the diminutive stature of the aforementioned rapper, Reebok utilized the help of arguably the most dominant player ever as Shaquille O&#8217;Neal made an appearance to help market the retro version of the Reebok Shaqnosis.<br \/>\n<!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>8. Foot Locker x Nike Basketball: Nike KD 5 &#8220;Who is KD&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p>With many pundits calling then ascending star Kevin Durant &#8220;too nice&#8221;, Foot Locker and Nike decided to have fun with that notion as they created the campaign stating how KD is &#8220;Not Nice&#8221;. While the ad provides a ton of humor, much merit is subliminally tossed around as we all know &#8220;The Durantula&#8221; can annihilate any opponent looking to stop him.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>7.Foot Locker x adidas Basketball: Damian Lillard &#8220;No Rings&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vnaZBRumpg4?rel=0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>With much of his career left, Damian Lillard better tread lightly when it comes to poking fun at players that lack championship rings. However, in this brilliant Foot Locker and adidas ad, Lillard is overhead by numerous iconic players that places this budding Portland Trailblazers star in a bit of a conundrum.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>6. Foot Locker x Nike Basketball: Nike Kobe 9<\/h2>\n<p>This advertisement is arguably the most interesting because it featured a player that saw limited action during its initial run. As many hoop addicts understand, Kobe Bryant has been battling a variety of injuries within the past two seasons. However, that didn&#8217;t stop Nike as they partnered with Foot Locker to produce this\u00a0wonderfully eclectic ad that paints\u00a0<em>The Black Mamba<\/em>\u00a0as a master craftsman.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>5. Footlocker x Nike: &#8220;Tear Away&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p>Recently becoming ex-teammates back in late 2012, James Harden and Russell Westbrook connected one final time as they produced this hilarious commercial for Foot Locker. Whether James can actually horde gear under his clothes is a mystery in itself, but there is absolute humor with anything involving a &#8220;tear-away&#8221; beard.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>4. Foot Locker x Nike: Harden Soul<\/h2>\n<p>Now look, if anyone came to me with the idea of listening to a James Harden ballad, I would calmly and politely, instruct them towards the nearest exit. However, Mr.Harden is solid when it comes to marketing, as his musical skills are unveiled within this Foot Locker advertisement; and to be honest, it is as awful. Stick to gettin&#8217; buckets, James.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>3.Foot Locker x Jordan: Melos<\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9xXZTVyDk94?rel=0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The way the New York Knicks looked on offense at times last season, Knicks brass\u00a0surely wished multiple Carmelo Anthony&#8217;s existed. While that remains highly unrealistic, Footlocker and the Jordan brand provided some levity as they showcased multiple Melos during the release of his latest signature model.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Apologize to Melo 5&#8230;&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>Foot Locker x Nike: James Harden &#8220;Disguise&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p>James Harden is three-for-three on our list with multiple appearances as this star shooting guard shows us some range as an actor. Paired with budding star Anthony Davis, Harden shows that while the rising Power Forward is drawing critical acclaim, he&#8217;s still not quite there yet.<br \/>\n<!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>1.
