    They're here in the Bay Area now, saw it at Great Mall. Caught me off guard too while I was looking at the Fire Red 5s on display. I believe the Zoom Turfs were at Footlocker too. Man, I can't wait for the Foams now.

    Oh yeah, just picked up the Barkleys at Finish Line last night...I could have done the online thing for $98 shipped, but I'd have to wait like a week. I wanted them now!!!
    I ended up using the $10 off coupon from their website, so after taxes I paid $108...an extra $10 to have them now instead of waiting a week...no big deal.
    These things are up there on my grail list!

    Damn man...

    Too many retroes dropping so quickly. It's all good though because If I had the money I would rack up and relive some of those grade school memories.

    IMO...(JRose and a few others might disagree w/ me) I'll take the Air Max2 Uptempos over these because of the fact that I remember some of the Michigan players (Bulluck, Maurice Taylor, Jimmy, Ray , and a few others) rocking them in the 1994-95 NCAA season. That's only just from memory though.

    The team didn't have much of an impact that year compared to the 92-93 season, but I can see where all of you all Fab Five afficinados are comming from.

    Although these were called the "dukes" I vividly remember seeing more Michigan players wearing the Uptempos than Duke players.


    Old skool kicks nonetheless. Hopefully these will end up in my collection sooner or later.
