He will be forever known as Kryptonate. Just the other day, Nate Robinson told Sneaker Files that he would be wearing green shoes for the Sprite Slam Dunk contest. Kryptonate would not ellaborate as to the style, make, or model of the shoes… all he would say is that they are green. Those green shoes Kryptonate teased us about ended up being a lime-green colorway of the Nike Foamposite Lite.
Kryptonate wore the green Nike Foamposite Lite shoes to jump over Dwight Howard (dressed as Superman) during the final round of the 2009 Sprite Slam Dunk Contest, and take his second trophy home to New York.
