Yesterday, fanatics piled into Footlocker’s House of Hoops in Harlem as Nike released the Foamposite Lite - Kryptonates. This was a special event however, as Nate Robinson of the New York Knicks was there for the event. After a Q&A segment, Nate spent some time greeting fans and even signing shoes as well as other memorabilia.
During the Dunk Contest, he sported an all green Knicks uniform, but the most intriguing part of his outfit was the the pair of Nike Foamposite Lites on his feet which featured a beautiful green-to-yellow gradient design. Good luck trying to get your hands on a pair now, as they can probably be found on eBay but will come with a hefty price tag. Check out the pictures and video!

[...] Kryptonate joints like many of us, at least we can provide footage from the event courtesy of KicksonFire. Nate was present to answer questions and greet the crowd, along with other Knickerbockers. [...]
These shoes are pretty str8. I say the Slam Dunk Contest and I think Kryptonate are a good name for the show. Nate Robinson 09 Slam Dunk Champion
I like Nate but I think he could’ve designed some better kicks.
ok so which of the hypebeasts in these photos is selling these kicks on ebay for thousands of dollars just one day after they bought them?
It looks like a sick event to be apart of and its cool that he signed a few pairs and greeted people. Nate seems like a pretty cool dude anyway
Im in love with these kicks. I wish I was at that event. I would pay a good amount for theses. Very Nice video.
I just noticed that the man interviewing is the man from the tv show harlem heights. Real good look.
its cool that they released these. They are hot…Nate is the only thing i like about the new york knicks. These are definitely tough yo. I mad i missed the dunk contest though.
I would only rock these on the court. Never we see me in the streets with these on.
I LOVE THA FOAMPOSITE

this is the best shoe to come out in 09′ IMO. If i can find these on E-bay 4 $900 or less…they will be in my collection.
man.
when i first herd bout those kicks i was lookin hard to find them
an the slam contest was crazy to
robinson got em
he deserves these shoes he an awesome player and thses shoes are str8
Yo I did too. I straight missed the slam dunk contest. But these are on ebay for about 500-2000 Its crazy. I love any and all the foamposites.
When I originally saw the Kryptonates at the slam dunk contest I was like them hot and said what if they start selling them, I bet people would buy em. Now they really did sell them and people love them, and I’m one of those many people. That green is just so nice.
They need to make a House of Hoops in Indiana man, it’s going to be hard to get this stuff because the nearest House of Hoops is in Chicago. It sucks!
I’m glad they released them, there a collectable
These are pretty dope you can’t go wrong with these

gotta love the way the interviewers holding the mic
anyone know where to find the poster?
I WAS PISSED!!!!! niggaz was inline days b4 i got there… i got there 4 a.m…. shit was already packed… i tried to go to niketown… SAME SHIT!!
I’ve never been a fan of the foamposites but this color scheme is out of this world. It reminds me of sprite haha.
THESE R ILL. LOVING THE COLOR FOR SOME REASON. FOAMPOSITES ARE AWESOME!
craziest dunk contest ever, his dunk over dwight and dwights off the side of the backboard were insaneee, you think these are nicer than the eggplant foamposite??
I love this guy. He gives little guys hope on the real. I hope someday i’ll be able to throw down like that. Thats super sick. The shoes are pretty dope too. I like that color of green the most. Nate’s swagger and attitude gave him a lot of scores in tha contest too i think.
I don’t see what all the hype is
over these shoes, these are hideous!
dese go! id ball in these fast
These are hot!!
these shoes could be better there probably one of those shoes that look betta on
dammmm wat shoes,thees are the best foamposites EVER
man these shoes are sick. i could stroll out onto any court with these babies on and just the sight of the kicks would show everyone out that i mean buissness.
there arent a lot of good kicks that look good with green but these do it for me.
Im either or for these kicks.
but veryy nice video.
Those are raw as hell. I would definately buy them!!
these are so sweet. the foamposite lights are such great ballin shoes. i wish these were a public release
First saw them at the slam dunk contest. That’s what really got these shoes popular. I like the lime green color.
Man those are deep. The green is off the hook, just like Nate Robinson. Would have liked them to be all lime green, but they are still freaking amazing!
[...] images can be found here.. [...]
I said it once i’ll say it again. The people at Nike are smart. I seen this coming they are going to make straight $$$ of Kryptonate.
YEA THE ARE CLEAN, PROBABLY WOULD JUST HOOP IN THEM IF I EVER WORE THEM
Like the person said above me. these do look like balling sneakers. I wonder if i wear them sneakers can i jump like nate. we happin to be the same height
