You can tell why they banned them. They make MJ stand out so bad from the team.

You guys have all seen the original pic, Mike with the "blacktoes" slung over his shoulder (the pair with "Air Jordan" in text with no wings logo). These are the only pictures I've ever seen of Mike actually wearing "blacktoes". I purchased some memorabilia from a former Bulls player (Jawaan Oldham - #33 in the team pic) which included some posters from Mike's rookie year. Here's a few shots I took...

aside from the fact that these are the only pictures that are known to exist (besides ones from the Slam Dunk comp) ofMike wearing "blacktoe" I's, he is wearing the infamous "no wing" pair slung over his shoulders in the playground picture. it'sactually a pretty big find for anyone even semi interested in the history of the brand. did you read the post or just skip right to the pictures?
