Gallery: Gilbert Arenas’ Kicksology

Twenty of Gil’s hottest sneaks from 2010-11.

With the Orlando Magic’s season-ending loss to the ATL Hawks on Thursday night, a remarkable season of sorts came to an end. Gilbert Arenas didn’t really play as well as Otis Smith had hoped he would when he gutted his roster in December to bring Gil to Orlando. His eight points per game, coupled with a disappointing three-point percentage (27.5) make his time in the Magic Kingdom uneventful at best. The one thing that Gil brought consistently from Nov. 5 to April 28, though, was his sneaker game. With his adidas deal off the table after last year’s locker room hijinx/felony charges, Gil was free to wear whatever he wanted this season. He showed off a Jordan-heavy collection that was sprinkled with a few other non-Nike gems here and there. Here’s a few of his best from the 2010-11 season.

Gil’s site, Sneaker Champ, was helpful in putting the pics in chronological order.

    dude straight opened up the closet on fools this entire season, much respect to his kick game. Lets just hope he can really get things back going on the court again. I’ll still never forget him putting 60 on Kobe at Staples, easily one of the most talented cats I’ve watched play

    All gear,
    No Idea.

  • [...] That’s the biggest dream for a sneaker head to showcase them at that stage, so even if his team got eliminated from the Playoffs, this makes him the ultimate SNEAKER CHAMP. That’s also his twitter name by the way: @thesneakerchamp and it’s all about the sneakers!!! You can also check which sneakers he wore for every game during the 2010-2011 NBA season on this site. Also SLAMonline.com has a nice gallery here. [...]
