WHATS YOUR FIST PAIR OF JORDANS AND STORY BEHIND IT

Heres my story:

When I was in Junion High School I could only afford Spaldings and we used to play ball against the rich kids who were rocking Pippen Uptempos, Spacejams and such... But I fell in Love with a pair of Aqua 8's and told myself that once I had a job I would make those mine..
ZOOOOM Forward to the year of the Retro VII (Cardinals, Black Blue and oly). I tried to catch the Chambrays and was denied by the great people of Sheik.... So when the Cardinals dropped I was able to chat with a dude from FTL. He was soo cool that we chatted for quite a while and stayed in touch... and when he gave me the heads up that the Aquas were coming I lost my mind...
Finally after years and years I had the ONE shoe I had been chasing.... My girlfriend to this keeps laughing about how I sat watching those shoes like half an hour... I have used and abused them, the paint is all but gone, the laces are dirty as heck, and the sole is slowly being destroyed.
And I love them... now that the retro movement has allowed me to catch many of the shoes I desired for so long I have fulfilled one of my promises to younger me...

OG Jordan 11 LEs with the red collar. After an exhaustive search for bred 11s I finally gave up and stumbled upon the lows in a local Modell's. Better than nothing I thought. Loved those jays, you never forget your first pair.

I was 7 years old, my family and I were shopping at Ross and I'm looking in the shoe racks, I see something familiar so I reach up to grab them and they're the 94 Retro Black/Cement IIIs! My God I loved that pair!

My first pair were actually from NT (thanks)
I got the retro Playoff VIII about 2 years ago.  It was the first time ever buying from NT and I didn't what would happen but it went well and I still got them and had no problems with them.

My first pair was the Indiglo XIV's in 2nd grade, didnt even know they were jays i just knew i needed to have em when i saw em..I think it was
the right green and the 23 on the heel that had me

. From then on it was a wrap, babied them things til the wheels fell off. even back then i was crafty as i was wearing
them around the crib and scratched one of the black fins so there was a white spot. After seeing it i calmly searched for the closest thing to black paint and
ended up coming across my moms black nail polish in the kitchen
laugh.gif
i ended up painting right over the white spot and they looked fresh as new
