^^^ These were also a good shoe from them, although to get the ankle strap tight it cut right across the top of my foot. I loved the Harmonix from this era.Only ones I have left are the Driven's though, and I hate the feel of those. The Quest was also severly underrated. I remember getting those and theDrivens at FootAction for BOGO, $39.99 total for both.

best looking to me are the black/irridescent toe KG 2s(?)

greatest success/most popular are the Tai Chi's especially white/red VC dunk contests

I looooove the Desires, and i always wanted the black/silver. i actually got the white/blue when i did get a pair.

the first and second marburys are the BEST hands down!
i'd pair 10 pairs of each if they ever re-released them!

Like many already, my vote goes to the tai chi for looks and performance. Just not so much on durability.

My 2nd place vote goes to the 2nd marburys, I had this colorway he has on (KG lookin young

):

Honorable mention, I never owned a pair, but I always liked how the Lottery's looked:

ahhh yes....the lotterys, that was when and1 tried to make a splash and signed larry hughes, raef lafrenz, shammond williams and rex chapman. The lottery was anice lookin shoe. The next year And1 went and got Latrell Spreewell and used him extensively in tv and print ads. A very risky move, but paid off for and1.

Spreewell's first shoe was the Fingerroll

Shared the same midsole/outsole as the taichi and the upper was reminicent of the lottery, still a pretty nice shoe.

And1 was really the only company at the time doing those gradient fabric uppers.

Good looks on that Marbury picture. Nice to see KG in those Jumpman Pro's...He was the first member of Team Jordan IMO (aside from most of the Bulls ofcourse)...

Shared the same midsole/outsole
that midsole/outsole is the most promiscuous midsole/outsole of all time.

man there were some good and1s.



I had the all black mad games, some kind of synthetic upper with patent leather. So nice, I wore them with a tux at a wedding and everyone thought they werenormal but slightly funky tux shoes. Hmm, actually I'm not sure if that is good or bad. Anyway, nice on the court but a little too narrow to take top spot.



That would be the Desire. I had the black and white ones, and even though they were kind of heavy I absolutely loved them. Loved the feel, loved the look,comfort and cushioning and stability and traction were all great. ankle coverage was not the best, but the shoe was so stable that it was no big deal. I try tofind these on ebay every once in a while, so far no luck.
