FILA “KJ7” – The current Mayor of Sacramento is better remembered by some for his highflying as an NBA guard. ’90s babies will remember when this pint-sized baller dunked over the towering Hakeem “The Dream” Olajuwan. FILA is looking to commemorate the days of old with an exclusive retro of Johnson’s signature shoes. Using the white, purple, black, and orange found in the Phoenix Sun’s colors the sneaker is a throwback to chunky high tops. Proceeds from the sale will also go to help the Sacramento Public Policy Foundation. Expect the limited sneakers to drop in stores Thursday, February 13.
