By now, you know the details of the unthinkable tragedy that took place in Newtown, Connecticut's Sandy Hook Elementary School this past Friday. The massacre claimed the lives of 26 people, 20 of which were children between the ages of 6 and 7. We here at Sole Collector send our deepest and most sincere condolences to the families that have been affected by this heinous act.

Keeping Sandy Hook in their thoughts are NBA All-Stars LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Kevin Durant, who each sharpied "Newtown, CT" on their game shoes over the weekend. Teams across the league also observed a moment of silence prior to tip-off.

Read on for a look at the messages written on LeBron James' Nike LeBron X, Dwayne Wade's Li-Ning Wade of Wade and Kevin Durant's Nike KD V.

Rest In Peace all Sandy Hook victims.

Still due out in a variety of colorways throughout the summer, the low-cut version of the Nike LeBron X has surfaced in a refreshing sample "Watermelon" colorway.

SALUTEEEEE, They are doing the right thing! We didnt see Kobe paying any respect to the families. Lebron cares about more than just basketball.
Great thing that they are doing, also the football players, got mad respect. I think it would be awesome though if they signed them and auctioned them so they can make a memorial for the people that lost their lives, or give the money to the families, even though it won't mean as much as the lives lost.
