The Sprewell ‘Dada’ kicks with spinners on them are coming back
NBA stars have been the flashiest athletes for a long time now. Russell Westbrook’s wild outfits are just the latest evolution of what basketball players have been doing for a while.
In 2001, NBA All Star Latrell Sprewell unveiled his signature shoe with Dada. The Dada Supreme Spinners featured actual spinning rims on its side in the most early 2000s thing of all-time.
Everyone has seen these sneakers. Honestly they’re goofy as hell, but how gangsta is it to just have spinners on your sneakers.
Sprewell brought mad attention to himself in the early 2000s while balling out in his spinners. The aesthetic itself fits in today’s hip-hop culture so well.
With the throwback 90s theme artists have been fucking with recently, these kicks could definitely make a comeback. Sprewell’s recent Twitter announcement showed that resurgence might be a reality.
Yesterday the former Knick posted an old picture of his spinners with the caption “These might make a return soon.”

After an hour of receiving support from fans on Twitter, Latrell came back and told everyone the sneaker was dropping sometime in 2018.

So I guess they’re scheduled to drop soon? I don’t know the legitimacy of Sprewell’s tweets but if it is true then we’ll all have spinners on our feet next year.
Even Kevin Garnett showed support to the retired All Star.

Along with receiving countless support tweets, Twitter had to throw some jokes at him.
Memes are a business now, might as well embrace them.

To be honest the sneakers can be type fly if worn right. Nostalgia always sells and who wouldn’t want to rock spinner on their kicks?
These two kids on Twitter already modeled a pair proving how we can properly bring the early 2000s into 2018.

Hopefully Sprewell does have more details about the release date. Until then let’s just look at old colorways and get our fits ready.
