    Cool Grey IVs. Lousy cushioning, midsole paint started flaking on the second wear.

    I paid $250.00 for Altitude XIII's in 2005 via ebay. They turned out to be fugazi. I was tight. I was thrist.

    Being 31, I have way too many kicks purchases that I shouldn't have made. Regrets, Never!

    Now, there are way too many methods to regain the money you spent on them: Ebay, Craigslist, NT, Receipts, Store Credit!

    Rather, the shoes that I SHOULD have bought, will forever haunt me.

    I regret buying the All-Star VC IV's...they didn't have the 2K4's in Niketown ATL, so I settled, but they just got uglier and uglier, the more thatI looked at them. I never wore them and I eventually gave them away. Besides that, I've never regretted buying any shoes.

    Boy aint THAT the truth...


    I do admit at times it pains me to see my oldest son run his kicks into the ground while proudly I see my youngest handle his kicks with the utmost of carelike his Dad does..[​IMG]

    Kobe Lites - way too high an not comfortable at all.

    Air Force 25 - good shoe - but too heavy for my style of play. Probably my fault on that one.

    Invisible Woman AF1 on release day. 6/3/06.........the only time I fell into the NT hype.

    Only one store in Cleveland got them and they charged $150.

    They've only been worn twice.

    Definitely one of the worst shoes to play ball in. Wow, they killed my feet every single time I played in them.

    My biggest regrets are paying WAY over retail for the first Spizike colorway and all the times I went to Flight Club to buy kicks when I should've beenstudying at school and/or saving my money. Bad decisions, especially when a store like that is a block away from school...

    I thought about this overnight and I actually came up with two pairs:

    [​IMG]



    1. yellow
    2. maroon

    Just getting them on is a project! So much so that I RARELY, if ever wear them!

    OG XIX's (Black/Red)......What was I thinking. They're still DS, and with the CDP they're worth almost nothing. Ha ha.........damn.
