The pair that started my obssesion !

My obsession started with the royal foams. I will never forget when they dropped and one of my friends in middle school had them walking down the hall way. I mean they literally broke my neck. I looked @ them with such love. Back then i couldnt afford 180 dollar shoe

. I ended up copping the 07 which are still ds .


Fast forward to 10th grade in hs.

The gold fight posite ones dropped. I was in the mall with my parents and i begged moms to buy them for me. She saw the price tag and was like

.  I continued to beg so she put them on lay away. 20 days later i was rocking my flights. I remember holding them in my room just staring at how beautiful they were

Tragedy struck:
I was walking to a friends house and stepped on glass

The glass cut underneath my shoe. I was so pissed but said f**k it and still wore my flights. Needless to say they started to flap

I send them back to nike and they send me back the jordan xv

Talk about being pissed , hurt and just plain un happy.

I cried that day and from then on i swore i would get my flight again

 this started it for me as a child
The blk/red Air Jordan VI retro from 2000 that had "NIKE AIR" on the back were my first kicks I bought with my own money. Actually I traded some cool grey XI samples plus 250$ for those VI's.

The pair that really got me hooked was the Shox VC III All Star games when i was in the 4th grade, I bought em with my own money and i still have em today ( even though my lil bro kinda beat em up), Still looking for a pair in a sz 12! First Jordan was the OG 21 colorway(white, red, black) and i finally got a pair in my sz for a good price haha. I love those shoes that bring you back to when you were little!

The whole iverson line is what started me. The questions were so dope. A.I. still one of my favorite players. The jordan crossover one of the best NBA moments to me. Funny I don't have any of my iverson anymore.
