Long before Garnett, Pierce, Allen, and the other world champion Boston Celtics became household names, Bob Cousy was a Celtic extraordinaire. From 1951 to 1963, the point guard led the team to six NBA titles. The soon-to-be octogenarian has long since retired, but his Bob Cousy All-American athletic shoes will still put a spring in your step. The Hall of Famer, who wore PF Flyers during his career, recently worked with the Boston-based company to design a special low-top canvas shoe; it comes in black, natural, navy, and, of course, green. $60.
