Prior to the launch of the adiZero Crazy Light, the primary team sneaker for members of adidas Basketball was the adiZero Infiltrate. Sold in limited quantities at select retailers like Dick's Sporting Goods last fall, the Infiltrate was a lightweight performance shoe best suited for shooting guards and slashers. The reduced weight was achieved with the use of SprintSkin technology on the upper, while adiPrene cushioning was added to the forefoot for increased propulsion.
One of the adidas athletes that wore the adiZero Infiltrate was Los Angeles Clippers guard Eric Gordon, who actually debuted the model during the 2010 FIBA World Championship. Here's a look at a PE colorway Gordon rocked during the regular season, decked out in Clippers colors. A predominantly black upper is accented by red on the collar, ankle and heel. Blue handles 3-Stripe branding, the laces and trim along the side panels. Printed across the tongue is "EJ10," a reference to Gordon's initials (Eric Jr.) and jersey number. Capping off the look below is a red and blue midsole/outsole combination.
This game-worn and signed pair is now available to bid on from arturo420 on eBay.
