All-Star Weekend 2020 is officially here. A couple of days ago we previewed our “Top 15 NBA All-Star Weekend Sneakers (Part 1: 1980-1999).” Today we showcase another 15 models, dating from the years 2000 to 2019. This list from the 21st century was much harder to compile than the list spanning from the 80’s and 90’s. The new millennium brought fresh ideas to All-Star Weekend when it came to marketing, fashion, and sneakers as a whole. Brands started to make All-Star specific releases to coincide with their athletes that represented them. Most sneaker aficionados would have to agree that the 2012 Nike All-Star pack was, and is, the best All-Star pack to date. This “Galaxy” themed pack could not miss and every player’s signature shoe sold out and immediately went for high-ticket resale. Nike had a good 4-5 year run when basketball sneakers were king and those were the models demanded by both the public and sneaker resellers.

The 2000’s saw Michael Jordan’s last two All-Star games, high-flying dunks by young Vince Carter and Nate Robinson, as well as mismatched shoes by Tracy McGrady. With the demand high, All-Star packs from each brand became the norm and every city hosting All-Star Weekend had enormous release parties. With Kobe, Lebron, and KD carrying the load from the late 2000’s and into the 2010’s, Nike just couldn’t be topped when it came to ASW. Will we ever get back to the good ol’ days of can’t-miss All-Star signature releases? Will the 2012 “Galaxy” themed pack ever be topped? Look below to see what our top picks were for the best sneakers worn during All-Star Weekend from 2000-2019.
