Breaking out a choice pair of retros on court always deserves props, but breaking out OGs is virtually unheard of. Back in 2005 a then rookie Andre Iguodala was looking to make a splash in his first All-Star weekend facing off against a sophomore team led by LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, and Dwyane Wade. While the star studded soph team was laced in their new sigs and PEs, Iggy stole the show in a pair of original the Nike Air Foamposite One.
The origin of this pair is still unknown. At the time the Foamposite One had not been retroed and would not come out again until 2007. It’s unlikely that these were samples two years ahead of their time and in a size 17. Legend has it Iguodala’s alma matter Arizona has an unreal equipment room with loads of heat. Where did he get them? We may never know.
