Amid the chatter that he’s officially jumped from Jordan Brand to Li-Ning, Dwyane Wade just tweeted out this photo of what appears to be his first Li-Ning shoe.

The tweet is timely considering Wade slipped news of his brand switch to Heat beat writer Ira Winderman at today’s practice at American Airlines Arena. He still likes Jordan Brand slides, though, opting for a pair after the workout, according to Winderman.

Wade WoW! It happened. Big steal for Li Ning to get him away from the Jordan brand; he’s onchampionship Heat team no less!!
Li Ning wasted no time to put a shoe together. How long was the deal in place for? I hope they make these available in States to buy. It looks better then the Jordan crap designs they put him in; we need to see side angle now!
This is awesome!!!! I love Li-Ning!!!! I too hope these will be available here in the states and in my size 14! These would look amazing with all my other Li-Nings
Counterkicks are you guys getting any more Li-Nings made this year? I sure wish there was a way I could get my hands on a size 14 in the Counterkicks Hero and Defends haha! They are amazing!!!!
Dwyane Wade FLASHES His Li-Ning Signature Shoe
Loving the laced W, really creative, and the rest of the shoe looks really clean so far, big step up visually from the Jordan Wade’s.
excited for this as well. time to put some variety on the shoes we see on court!
Jordan never did anything good for wade, truthfully all his shoes were garbage, I collect mostly retro Jordan’s and nikes, and I must admit I’m excited to see what li ning could bring to the table and technology to ball in, hopefully to also wear casually
