This week on the Kicks On Cards Weekly Recap, we take a look at a nice variety of eras, brands, players and for the first time, even sports.

That's right, those sweet Nike Air Stabs that pulled you right in were worn by none other than heathrower Nolan Ryan during his stellar Texas Rangers days. Rounding out the other shots is a look at Larry Johnson's heralded Aero Jams, The Big Everything metaphorically telling us "The World Is Mine" in his classic Reebok Shaqnosis, and even iconic hoop shoes like the Air Jordan XII and Air More Uptempo, only not worn by Michael and Scottie. Enjoy!
