just bought a pair of sweet retro Air Jordan 1 low tops.  Now that Nike is offering legit retro Jordan's, I can begin archiving versions 1 through 4. :mrgreen: 

Inspired by the Air Jordan 1's past as a skateboarding shoe, the Air Jordan 1 Low Phat Men's Shoe gets a comfort boost with added padding in the tongue and collar lining and a fresh look with hot new colors and patterns.



Combination leather and synthetic upper with perforated toe for breathability
Deluxe foam package in the collar lining and tongue for maximum comfort
Cupsole midsole with insert and full length Nike airbag for enhanced cushioning
Embroidered retro Wings logo at heel
Solid rubber outsole with strategically placed forefoot flex grooves for flexibility

Some people say a picture is worth a thousand words...These sneakers are so cool, I'm speechless.

There's a knob in that back that you turn to tighten wires inside the shoe. The next velcro...

Classic Adidas Gazelle

In college I had about 8 different pairs of Puma's, all different colors.  Twas quite sweet.  Different color for a different mood.  Rock the shit outta those badboys.

After that I got in to Vans.  Rocked them for many many years, but now it seems the designs are way to middle school for me.  A lot going on in the design, hurts my old eyes.  I know there are some nice basic ones out there, but I don't see them very often.  I will buy them when I see them, though.

Recently bought a pair of New Balance, first time ever, and I really like them.  Comfy, light, works great.  But I still have an old pair of Vans for those snowy days so my feet don't get wet.

The deal now, for Vans, is to go online and, aside from a couple decent styles every year, you pretty much have to make a custom pair.
At $60 per, it's worth it. My next sneaker purchase will be 2 identical pairs of custom vans.

agreed. way too much going on these days. give me the old school basics. when you find them you gotta grab them.

I didn't know you could do that.  Thanks for the info.  I will def be checking into that.

And they are getting harder to find.  The online thing sounds like the best option.

my shoes arrived yesterday. 8-)

[WhatstheUse?]

I have had these same shoes since 5th grade.  Well, not the same pair, but the same exact shoe.

I honestly can't keep track off how many different pairs i have boughten.... my guess is around 10.

Always white stripes, always. 

I guess it is kind of weird, I've never been a huge shoe fan, so once I found a pair i liked i just stuck with it...... it's nice buying a new pair of shoes but not having to get used to them because they are the same, especially now that I've stopped growing I can get the same size everytime.

How boring am I?  :|
