Li-Ning Jose Calderon
Posted by Alex Kroviak | Nov 19, 2009
Jose’s Calderon’s appearances in Kicks On Court have been a welcome change for our “bored with Hyperizes” readers. Donning a signature Li-Ning, Calderon is off to a decent start, averaging just under 13 points per game in this young NBA season. Not too long ago we took a close look at another Li-Ning sneaker designed for Baron Davis, the BD-1, and now we get a close-up on Calderon’s signature silhouette. We saw this sneaker in action in today’s Kicks on Court actually, following last night’s Raptors game. These sneakers feature a black and red patent leather accents throughout the upper, while it also gets a healthy dose of plastic ribbing, adding a “rib cage” around Jose’s foot. his number 8 appears on the ankle insides, and the otngue logo features Calderon posing with 3 fingers up, which he does on-court when he just hit a shot from outside.

Slap a jays sign on it and it’ll be the new jordan 2011. Much better than either the 09s or 10 jays!

these are wack!!!! they look like knock off vicks….just like how the baron davis shoe looks like a knock off nike zoom blur…
Nov 22, 2009 at 1:36 pm

Wow, these do look much better than 90% of the Jordans that have been released as of late.

Excellent shoes. JB needs to sharpen up before others take over.
Nov 19, 2009 at 11:55 pm
Someone said the price is around $120
I’ll pass

way better than Jordans hybrids, 2009s and 2010s. So stfu, Li-ning is actually producing some nice stylized kicks that I can’t hate on. Barons and this are really good looking.Tinkerfield has lost his touch, Jordan BLAND (not brand) need new and better designers.

Nov 19, 2009 at 8:16 pm

Nov 19, 2009 at 7:12 pm

I love my KOBE IVs but dammit it’s just too many of dem muggs on the gym hardwoods.
Nov 19, 2009 at 2:58 pm

Nov 19, 2009 at 2:54 pm
If these were Jordan 2010 people who dont like them would be beasting over them
Nov 19, 2009 at 2:49 pm

Nov 19, 2009 at 1:55 pm

Nov 19, 2009 at 1:42 pm

Nov 19, 2009 at 1:19 pm
Those are supa str8!
Nov 19, 2009 at 12:39 pm
shut up, b
there are 14 logos and icons on the XIV’s
you wasn’t complainin then
Nov 19, 2009 at 12:38 pm
wow. I had always liked the way they looked in the kicks on court pics but I like em even more now…let’s get that performance review, nicekicks! =D
Nov 19, 2009 at 12:36 pm
Few notes:
- Not bad. Not bad at all. ( but its still a Li-Ning )
-
- If I’m not mistaken, there are 7 or 6 logos and icons on the f%*&in shoes. That’s too much.
-
- If you’re going to introduce a new design, show different CWs. Bred is too much already. Start with white clean colorways.
-
- Looks like T-Mac shoes.
-
- But its ok. 7 out of 10
Nov 19, 2009 at 12:34 pm
these are dope.
they look waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than the 2010 Jordans
Nov 19, 2009 at 12:33 pm
@ Crazy Leg5
most of your kickz are made in China anyways (Nike, Adidas etc.)
Nov 19, 2009 at 12:26 pm
Don’t like them, It’s even harder to like them coming from china. (Chinese Quality=0.0)
Nov 19, 2009 at 12:20 pm
how do you pronounce it? like ‘lightning’ or ‘leaning’?
Nov 19, 2009 at 12:20 pm
where can you buy this shoes?
Nov 19, 2009 at 12:18 pm
What retailers sell li-ning in the US?
Nov 19, 2009 at 12:12 pm
The sole is throwing me off a lil bit but i still like em cuz it was all i was seeing in the other post but overall looks like a solid shoe to me i would cop em
Nov 19, 2009 at 12:09 pm
haha these do look like zoom vick 1’s
Nov 19, 2009 at 11:57 am
Joints look JUST like the Zoom Vick I’s
Nov 19, 2009 at 11:52 am
@ waynebrooks - absolutely..
These look better that the 2009’s & 2010’s
I say JB go to China and snatch up some of these designers and not snatch up the factory workers ideas of fusions….
Nov 19, 2009 at 11:41 am
Is it me or is this looking more Air Jordan-ish than the 2010 Jordan????????
Nov 19, 2009 at 11:31 am
No way Jose! Jk those are actually pretty dope, remind me of the Vick 1s
Nov 19, 2009 at 11:30 am
I’m loving the toebox, too. I’d probably cop if I could find out where to get ‘em.
Nov 19, 2009 at 11:29 am
a signature li-ning signature, huh?
