Phenomenal Swag: Tim Duncan's skeleton shoes

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/blog/ball_dont_lie/post/Phenomenal-Swag-Tim-Duncan-s-skeleton-shoes?urn=nba,207889

If I were making a list of who I thought would have the best shoes in the NBA, based only on the aesthetics of their games, the list would go something like this:
1. Kobe Bryant(notes)
2. Dwyane Wade(notes)
3. Steve Nash(notes)
98. Tim Duncan(notes)
265. Brad Miller(notes)
450. Shaquille O'Neal(notes)
Imagine my surprise when I found out that "Mr. 98" up there has the best shoes in the league. But that's the fact, as pictures just leaked of Tim Duncan's TS Commander LT Skeletal player edition kicks.
The shoes, originally issued as a Halloween promotion, so caught Timmy's eye that he's taken to wearing them throughout the season. The top of the shoe features a bone structure that follow's Tim's foot, and the translucent sole — always a good look — also features some foot bones. (One would imagine Yao Ming(notes) shies away from these.)
As far as I can tell, these shoes aren't available to you and me, but I guess that could change. After all, I never expected to be writing a post about Tim Duncan's shoes.

I love Adidas and I think they did a good job on the design. I noticed them during one of the games, but I don't think I'd wear them on the court. lol

Too bad you can't even get them.

[thispego]

If I had those shoes it would just be downright unfair for my opponents

[alchemist]

I've never liked Duncan's shoe designs, but these are absolutely awesome. If they're ever available for the regular consumer I'm buying a pair or two.

[koriwhat]

i have those shoes... just not with that print and sole.

[NZ Spurs]

They look cool up close. They look ugly on TV.

[thispego]

I see it the other way around

Wow, those are some bad-ass shoes. I'd definitely buy a pair just to collect it if it were made public.

What is the #98 the author of the article is refering to?

[Chieflion]

What is the #98 the author of the article is refering to?
Rank of the player's shoes. Duncan was 98 regularly on his list, he was exeggarating to point Duncan is now wearing some slick shoes.

[Whisky Dog]

They're ok, pretty geeky but that fits Timmy like a glove.

Not my thing though.

[angelbelow]

Looks pretty awesome to me.
