In 6th grade my dad took me to a local sporting goods store (Lou's Spirting Goods) in Fremont NE. I saw the blk/red 12's along with the white/blk 12's. Dad got me both pairs and I have been hooked ever since.
The pair that started my obssesion !

Growing up, no Nikes for me, parent didnt have a lot of money. But I think what first started my obsession wasn't Nike, reebok, fila but rather skate shoes. In particular DC Boxers, Es Koston 1 and Etnies SLB with the 23 on the side. Still remember having different cw of each shoe. But ultimately, the shoe that really started the downward spiral (lol) was OG playoff 13 back during jr/sr year in hs.
