Bam Adebayo brought Static Shock to the hardwood this week as he debuted special Jordan sneakers inspired by the comic book hero. The Miami Heat star got tagged in a post by the brand featuring his “Hero” Air Jordan 36. The low tops come in black, blue, yellow, and white. All the signature colors of Virgil Hawkins’ suit in the WB cartoon show. On one tongue is a lightning detail and the words “gotta be a hero” on the inside. Along the midsole, there’s lighting detailing resembling Static’s comics look. As the NBA has grown in popularity, athletes like to express themselves more and more on the court. That means there have been multiple custom sneakers alluding to both DC and Marvel heroes over the last few years. However, it’s always a little bit more special when it comes from the brand itself. Check out Jordan’s post down below.
