Lightning – The brand of shoes that Lyle Pickering had in Connections in Death - black Lightning high-tops, with the white lightning bolt down the back, in size ten. He only wore them when he went out, over to Martin’s or when he went to church with his grandmother - never to work because he didn’t want them to get dirty from grease and spills. They were missing from his and Rochelle’s apartment after he was murdered.[1] Burke “Ticker” Chesterfield was wearing them later in the story, helping to close the cage on him as one of Lyle’s killers.[2]
YANNI: Before Eve found out that Lyle’s shoes were missing, she noticed that Marcus Jones, Jr. was wearing black high-tops, but not Lightning brand.[3]
