Sneak Peek at Phil Jackson’s New Shoes

The man used to wear his own players’ kicks, and now, the opposite is on the verge of happening: ”Adidas is producing 15 pairs of kicks for the Lakers coach called the Phil Jackson Artillery shoe and it will come in two colorways — purple and gold (Lakers) and black and red (Bulls). The shoes also will sport an “X”, which represents the number of titles Jackson has won.”‘

    Wow! Zen Master gets his own sig kicks. Would’ve been better if those were Nikes. :D

    by the way, when Jackson wore Jordans, was that a one time thing? Never noticed this back in the day.

    Now people will correlate his wins to his shoes. “Must be the SHOES!”

    When you see these you won’t be as impressed as you are now… each shoe in the pair is different colours… ugly as sin.

    Reminds me of Mighty Ducks 2 when Bombay was trying to work a shoe deal.

    Don’t buy them – I hear they damage your hips. (I kid of course – don’t sue adidas!)

    Nike is NOT always better than Adidas. Some shoes, yeah, but this whole notion that every Nike is bangin’ and every Adidas is wack is a myth.

    addidas makes better soccer cleats and lighter running shoes.

    How do shoes help coaches in the slightest?

    Sign of the Apocalypse. Who’s going to look at an ad and say, “Wow, Phil Jackson has those shoes! Let’s get ‘em!”

  • http://slamonline BossTerry

    I thought he wore Birkenstocks with dirty socks in the off season..

  • http://hibachi20.blogspot.com Blinguo

    Phil Jackson’s shoe is named after ammo and discharging weapons really, Artillery, now who’s wearing the “prison gear” who needs a dress code Phil Jax?

    Does his shoes come with extra padding?

  • LA Huey

    I hear the AARP crowd is an untapped market. They better be real comfortable though.

  • Ali

    I got an idea, have the bottom of the shoe trimmed with 10 championship rings, and a big X on the heel. I copyright this.

  • Yesse

    Well, Phil Jackson really deserves his own shoe.

    Gordon Bombay: “It’s more like a loafer.”

  • john

    lol @Jeff fox

  • dijah

    i respect his sucess > but really a shoe

  • http://slamonline.com MiguelKG5

    Well he has won 10 championships, let him have whatever he wants. Not sure how they will look with a suit

  • Kmartshopper

    Ah, yes. “the Air Bombay loafer, for kids who wanna coach”

  • chintao

    Already, I can’t buy Nike because of Jordan, Kobe, and LeBron. Now, I can’t buy Adidas because of Fphil? I’m guessing the “X” represents all 10 pairs of these shoes that they anticipate will be sold worldwide before they have to start giving the leftover stock to the needy.
