Welcome to our new series, Sixers Kicks here on CrossingBroad dot com, one that was the brainchild of our Under Armour-loving founder, who once claimed the aforementioned company was already the second-most-popular sneaker company on planet Earth:

Yeah, about that. Anyway, let’s take a look at what the stars of your team, your town, your Philadelphia 76ers wore on Wednesday night:

Ben Simmons: Nike Zoom Rize

A light color palette sets the tone for Simmons’ season. The green area represents his safe zone around the hoop, the white is indicative of his unwillingness to pull up from midrange, and the red, of course, is the no-fly zone: the dreaded three point arc.

Josh Richardson: Reebok Question Mid “Double Cross”

I’m a bit torn on these. It’s clearly an homage to the first shoes Allen Iverson took the court wearing 25 years ago, but I think the aesthetic depends entirely on the person wearing them. You’re drunk uncle on Thanksgiving? No. Josh Richardson, NBA player? Yes.

Bonus: Allen Iverson Matches Richardson

Of course he’s rocking the Double Cross. Though, in fairness, he’s old enough to be your uncle.
