Nike “Krypto-Nate” Foamposite Lite
Posted by Nick Engvall | Feb 18, 2009 We gave you a look at these kicks that Nate Robinson used to take out Superman in the 2009 NBA Slam Dunk Contest on Monday, now a pair of them has surfaced on eBay.
The Krypto-Nate Nike Foamposite Lite was produced in extremely limited numbers, and will likely never make into production. Therefore the only chance you may ever get to get these kicks is right now. Maybe find yourself a matching Green Knicks jersey and you’ll be dunking on Superman as well! Better be ready to drop some serious cash though, right now the auction is at $1000 on eBay. What would you pay for these Nike Foamposite Lites? |

Feb 20, 2009 at 5:09 pm
I don’t know if anyone noticed but these sold for $22,300
Feb 20, 2009 at 12:20 pm
Yo word is that this ebay auction was a scam. And whoever won got got Cuz nate still has the kicks. And ONLY him. Thats sad. I think these are cool but I’m not too big a fan of foamposite lites. With that said…Up here in NY. THE SWAG CAPITAL OF THE WORLD…Foamposites get LOVE. Jordans will ALWAYS be Number 1 but we like our foams. And for the record there is NO SUCH THING as a sponge bob jordan. You got ripped off. And chris B…you got ripped of 3 times. I’m sorry man, do a little bit more reading on these blogs cuz everytime you step out in a pair of “sponge bob jays” a true sneaker head like myself is laughing at you. Do Believe.

Feb 19, 2009 at 11:22 am
the shoe is lovely but im not paying a stack for them im not even that big of a fan of nate robinson but congrats though
Feb 19, 2009 at 10:48 am
LMAO! are you guys retarded. This is the pair he wore in the dunk contest. This is a piece of history.
Of course the GR will be less, and well worth it. Cats are dropping loot onwack CDP’s and crying about this.
This is why most things suck, because idiots like y’all join together with moronic opinions that make it the norm. Its obvious that NIKE knows this that is why only clowns believe all their hype.

Gootum money money money-paid -n- full
Feb 19, 2009 at 7:29 am
$5,800.00!!! :O
Feb 19, 2009 at 6:03 am
luv them, but:
1. heel could also be in “kryptonit” colour
2. don’t like that “K” logo
3. price?!?!
Feb 18, 2009 at 7:51 pm
I would def cop them if I had da scrilla. I dont, so the best of luck to every one bidding.
Feb 18, 2009 at 7:13 pm
Knew they was gonna command the 4 figures but in this time and age can’t spend that on sneakers. If they do release these they should be a very limited released. I think as time goes on they will only rise in value.
Feb 18, 2009 at 6:16 pm
1000?????? tht way to much for any shoe but i want these lol so they not gonna release these??/
Feb 18, 2009 at 5:02 pm
gimme the green liiiight!
Feb 18, 2009 at 4:50 pm
yo ppl the pair are apparently the actual ones Nate wore in the slam dunk contest the bids like over 3 G’s now but the seller said they come in a plain nike box :S being the actual ones Nate wore should it be better then a plain nike box :S but anyway im sure its genuine but 3,800.99 price tag helll nooo
Feb 18, 2009 at 3:50 pm
Current Price: US $3,800.99 | 8 bids… damn shame.
young G.S. - if you think that dunk is a winner, YOU ARE seriously trippin’.
Dwight Howard is 7′ tall, his dunks don’t impress me anymore.
True, they’re nice to look at, because other 7 footers can’t do it…
But seriously? That dunk really wasn’t “all that.”
They were giving him 10’s on dunks that weren’t even 10 worthy.
Feb 18, 2009 at 1:45 pm
Like a lot of folks said on here, not worth a G, but as for being one of the very few foamposite lite fans these look very delicious. GO NATE!
Feb 18, 2009 at 12:57 pm
These should come out, foamposites are known for havin flashy colorways… which this one is. if i were to guess, i’d say these will be a hoh release where nate would personally sign them (him being a knicks player and there being a hoh in new york) but i also think they might get rid of the “k” logo and gr these… hopefully it will be more of the second option
Feb 18, 2009 at 12:12 pm
NIKE need 2 bring these out n da eggplant colorway!!!!!
Feb 18, 2009 at 11:34 am
hell no!
tha dunk contest was over when dwight through it off tha side of tha backboard…and whoever that is on ebay thinkin somebody got cash to cop them joints is a damn fool!!!!
it is not that serious…. i put 1000 on tha paint job 4 my 2008 cadillac cts…
lil nate won but DALLAS get ready 4 THA KING..
any bets on LEBRON winning it???
Feb 18, 2009 at 11:14 am
iono wen would b da right time 4me 2wear bright green shoes
Feb 18, 2009 at 11:10 am
they said it on sneakerfiles tht he announced tht they were gonna b released 4 185 in march
im not shure wen in march tho
Feb 18, 2009 at 11:08 am
A GRAND ONLY IF THEY WERE WORN AND SIGNED BY NATE HIMSELF HOPE THEY DO LIKE A 400 PAIR RELEASE OR SOMETHIN
Feb 18, 2009 at 10:57 am
LOL…Imagine everyone walking around in theses shoes at ur school or local event….
Feb 18, 2009 at 10:54 am
These is worth way more than $185…not sure about a $1000…But if he got these given to him at the all-star game then there aint no reason for anyone to Hate on Nate or the lucky recipient….He’s the first one ever….Oh and if its a general release u will prob see these goin for about $250 to $300 on ebay still!!!
Feb 18, 2009 at 10:51 am
I knew it. $1,000!
Just watch, when HOH releases them (since these will NOT be Footlocker/Footaction release), they’re gonna have more of these going for $1,000+…
I’d pay $230 @ the most for them.
That’s fairly reasonable, I believe.
Feb 18, 2009 at 10:40 am
#21 when did he say that?
Feb 18, 2009 at 10:39 am
If i had a stack plus to drop on em i would but i dont so i def wont be coppin these. if u got tha bread y not cop em?
Feb 18, 2009 at 10:37 am

Feb 18, 2009 at 10:18 am
glows in the dark???
Feb 18, 2009 at 10:09 am
6 pairs of crap quality Jordans*
If these last as long as the original Foams, I’d rather take these.
Feb 18, 2009 at 10:09 am
correction: they worth a G only if these are the pair that was worn by nate during the dunk contest
Feb 18, 2009 at 10:03 am
$1000 = 3 Jordan CDP
3 Jordan CDP = 6 pair of Jordans… nuff said
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:54 am
nice but not $1000 nice
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:51 am
Nice shoe
but not worth a G
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:49 am
from what i heard from a Nike Employee at all star weekend, these shoes will release publiclly to HOH locations. nike already has production numbers and the process has started. if nate never won the dunk contest these may have never released… but expect 72 pairs at HOH!
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:46 am
As much as I want these and want them to be a general release, these need to stay exclusive (limited number).
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:42 am
these are the first and possibly the only lites that I’ll like. and I do think that they’re worth a G, bc after u let em sit for a while they’ll be worth much more that that. I’m not sayin that I’ll cop em, but they are def. worth that much. but if they come out as a limited release they should be no more than $300
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:31 am
those joints fire
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:23 am
whata bout the orange ones Nate wore? =/
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:14 am
i’d pay 3 hundred to get them if they are a limited release but i wouldnt go over 250 for a general release and that if i can get them early.
51 more weeks in kuwait and since i saw these im really thinking about getting my 96 impala painted this color.
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:11 am
if they put these on genral release then the novelty would be worn out if u know what i mean but these are toxicc i would love to cop
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:07 am
im really digging those lights….if i was ballin everyday i would really be tempted to box up the j’s and lace them bad boys up….
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:07 am
gotta agree wit texas on dat especially not when they only 155 for a basic pair. dats a 845 dollar jump
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:07 am
i would be gutted if i paid $1000 n then found out there were some more selling at a lower price but EXCLUSIVE but if its like 2 ever made (1 from Nate Robinson) mmmm dont know gotta be a major fan to spend 1000 on these
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:05 am
I agree with #1. I’ll hope for a release and I’ll really hope for a general release. Of course that would never happen.
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:04 am
money ain’t a thing
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:04 am
copped!!
Feb 18, 2009 at 9:04 am
I like em..but they not worth a grand.
