Since Converse is now owned by Nike, I thought I would see if anyone here really remembers, has pics, or thoughts on the short lived Larry Johnson signatureshoe. So give me your thoughts, pictures, comments and memories. Honestly I liked them.

Great ad campaign, cool looking shoe. But the bright yellow React juice leaked out of a bunch of them, so portions of them were recalled. Larry Johnson wasawesome.

I was more of a KJ guy. I had so many Run N Slams. I liked the look of the AeroJams, especially the first one, but they were so friggin heavy andclunky. KJ's were light.

There have been a few great posts about these and the recent RE-RELEASES in the other brands forum.

React-juice for the win.

I can't seem to find a picture of a pair that I owned back when i was a kid, but they are not thesame as in the pic posted by Guerilla Warfare - i believe those are the aero jams. These were black with a spider web like design on them, but can'tremember the name. If you guys know what i'm talking about let me know. In fact post pics of all the LJ's - nice pic guerilla

Hi your talking about these


These are the aero jams, and they were retro'd back in 2003, at one point you could find them easily and cheap, now, good luck, but i know there are orwere a few OG pairs on ebay you should check there.
