The David versus Goliath 2009 slam dunk showdown has become
legendary. When Nate Robinson surprised the Phoenix crowd and
international TV audience with a pair of neon green Nike
Foamposite Lites to defeat Goliath the crowd was stunned. The
hysteria over the shoe began immediately.
The luck of the Irish will shine in Harlem on St. Pattys Day,
March 17. For everyday basketball fans and sneaker heads alike
the demand for the green Nike Foamposite Lite has grown to a
fever pitch. The shoes have not been available in retail
stores up to this point. The wait is finally over.
Nate Robinson will join forces with Nike and Foot Lockers
Harlem House of Hoops for an exclusive release event on St.
Pattys Day. The Nike Foamposite Lite established itself as
one of the most memorable basketball centerpieces in recent
memory and now fans can join in the action. To further support
Robinson and his heroic victory, Nike recently unveiled an
80-foot billboard on 34th Street and 7th Avenue in New York
City. The billboard, which displays an image of Robinson,
reads Leaps Tall Centers.
