Its all good i believe you man, i was only 8 at the time so i def could be mistaken. Anyway, im happy they went with the pearlized instead of the suede ones...much cleaner look imo


Yea I'm with ya man.. I hated the suede .. I had the all star yellow ones to.. but I agree pearlized were sweet. I wish they would release the answers again tho
I know the A 4's are supposed to drop in November, i believe the red/white and black/grey. Has anything else been confirmed? I would love to see the black/white A 5's drop them %##+* were fuego

The OG's came in both suede and the pearlized toe...the pearlized toe only released in Philly

I believe you may be incorrect as well,fam. First off, the Reebok Question originally came out on February 7,1997 not '96. 
Next,the OG Pearlized Red Toes were only available in Philly & D.C./Virginia (By Iverson's PERSONAL request, for his hometown, for the city he played college ball,and his new professional city). The Pearl Blue Toes were released nationwide on the same day. I'm from Houston, and was a High School senior when they originally dropped, and I know almost for certain that Houston didn't get the Red Pearls. I worked at Footaction back then when they came out as well. I only knew of one cat in the city with 'em back then (One of the older homies from the hood who went to college at Howard University at the time...Dude had my next BROKE back then,lol.) I wanted them Red Pearls SOOOO bad back then,and nobody in the city got them,smh.

I still have an old copy of a Footaction STAR magazine from Feb. '97, with an article on AI early into his rookie year talking about the debut of the Questions(Also,they had the OG Obsidian, Wht/Red, and Blk/Red  Jordan XII's in this particular issue...SUPER NOSTALGIC!!!)and he speaks on the Red version only being available in Philly & DMV as being his idea. So, I'm not sure of where u got your Red Pearl Toes from in Houston, but I wish I woulda known, because I woulda been ALL over 'em! Lol...

Nevertheless,count ya boy in for a pair this time around...Believe That

I copped thew suede red toe joints like a year ago from footlocker for like $30, its crazy how times change so fast.
 
Iverson gave out the game ball for the Celtics/Sixers game. Of course he had the Questions on...
 
Usually I would go true to size or half down, depends on just how snug your usual size feels
