The Staples Center played host to the 2011 NBA All-Star Weekend, but beyond the games were a number of great sneaker-related sub-stories – all of which were presented thanks to our round-the-clock coverage of one of the biggest footwear-related events of the year. The All-Star Game, Dunk Contest, 3-point Shootout, Skill Challenge, and Celebrity All-Star Game featured a ton of great kicks like the Hyperdunk 2011, Nike Basketball All-Star Colorways, Lean Basketball, and surprisingly, Chinese brand PEAK. The All-Star Game not only drew in the best talents in the NBA, but the biggest celebrities, as Jay-Z, P. Diddy, Beyonce, Justin Bieber, and many more of today’s hottest celebs came out to join in on the fun.
The All-Star Weekend was also a perfect opportunity for footwear brands to show off what they had in store; Jordan Brand’s complete transformation of Footaction in Culver City gave event-goers an opportunity to experience the Air Jordan 2011 as well as meet and greet the label’s top athletes. Nike Sportswear/Basketball also set up shop on Hollywood and Vine and a great ‘Los Fearless’ event space, which was the primary setting for the World Premiere of ‘The Black Mamba’. In that short film, we got a look at Kanye West’s Nike Air Yeezy 2 – a topic that caused an outburst of debate and hype among our readers. The past weekend was jam-packed with great stories so continue reading for a full recap of the 2011 NBA All-Star Weekend.
