Default Kickscorner: This Day In Sneaker History: Vince Carter's Memorable ...

“Thanks for the shoes. They really work.” – Vince CarterThe quote featured above is a note Vince Carter supposedly faxed to Nike after the 2000 Olympic games in Sydney, Australia. After involving 7’2″ <a href="http://anfu.putianb2b.com/"><strong>安福相册</strong></a> French center Frederic Weis in the <a href="http://www.putianb2b.com/"><strong>外贸论坛</strong></a> “le dunk de la mort” (the dunk of death), who wouldn’t think it was the shoes? The 6’6″ Vince Carter, wearing the Nike Shox BB4, drove to the basket, took flight, and dunked over on Weis in what may be the most memorable Olympic basketball moment ever. The U.S. team went on to win the gold medal that year; however, the “le dunk <a href="http://www.putianb2b.com/"><strong>耐克运动鞋</strong></a> de la mort” may be more unforgettable than the actual gold medal to many. If you recall, Nike re-released the Shox BB4, a shoe that incorporated Nike’s Shox technology (16 years in the making at the time), in its <a href="http://lovelyarab.com/profile_blog_full.php?id=460788"><strong>Christian Louboutin high heeled boots in White CL88029</strong></a> original colorway at select spots during the summer of 2009. Do you vividly remember this day in sneaker history?
