I wanted to get an early start on shoes for 2K12, and Aloncho's second Attention to Detail thread got me wanting to start this thread. I would like to get the shoe company/brand beside the players' names. This thread isn't meant to tell 2K what to do; it's for my benefit as well as those who want to play a lot with classic teams and have players wearing correct shoe brands.
If you want to contribute to the thread, just copy what the OS member posted ahead of you and add/correct. I'm not looking for pics or even the name of the shoe; if you want to post that, it's fine, but I'm just looking for the shoe company (ie Rodman went from Reebok to Nike to Converse, and other players switched brands which makes it a little difficult). I think this thread will be useful, but if it needs to be moved to the roster forum please do so.
This thread, of course, is not meant to label EVERY player with a shoe, but ones that you know of. I filled in just a few that I knew/thought I knew off the top of my head (others were taken from Aloncho's thread) so some could be wrong. Feel free to correct.
