    I recently came into a bit of pairs of these Hakeem Dream shakes and don’t know too much , all I know is they were released in 2013 and he did a couple pop up stores with em. Anybody know any other info they can school me with ? or even a value of what these are worth today ?[​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    The real reason Hakeem was underrated in the NBA. Nike chose not to sign him so he ended up with shoes that were ugly and unbrand-able.

    As I recall the big thing with Dream's shoes was that they were priced low so more people could afford them.

    Those were the Spalding ones that he released around '96

    I think I remember when the Spaldings came out. Weren't they like $19.99 or $29.99 at KMart?

    I think his most iconic shoes were his early Etonics. Those would be pretty retro slick to wear around Houston.

    hakeem must have had a really inept agent for not signing with adidas or nike, or even converse.

    It was his decision. He didnt want kids to spend $100 for a pair of shoes. Hakeem was a man of ethics and sympathy.

    that must suck for an agent (reminds me of starbury's). I wonder how much sponsorship/advertising money hakeem was able to amass over his career tho
