shipps Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I was a young lad and it was my first pair of expensive shoes. I was so proud of these shoes I would look at them all the time. I would make sure not a speck of dirt got on them and if it did I would do the spit wash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Back in college when I was playing basketball every day, I had a couple pair of Nike Air Raids. Perfect shoe for a big dude with ankle issues like me, with the torsion straps and heavy lugs. I was ecstatic when, a couple years ago, I stumbled on them again - Nike had brought them back. Best shoes ever for basketball, racquetball, anything with a lot of hard turns and plants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had an everyday white pair, naturally, and also a pair each of green, yellow, and purple that were the barhopping and gig playing shoes in college. I wore them until the soles were nonexistent.

I finally had to throw them away around 2001 or so when the soles literally fell off them. It was a sad day. I've got a pair of boots that I've had since 1996. They look like hell but still fit and they don't have any holes in them. Edited February 6, 2009 by Iwritecode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) Nike's are the only thing I buy. Addidas doesn't make their's wide enough for my foot. Edited February 6, 2009 by Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I have an old pair of K-Swiss that have served me well since 2003. I've worn them so much that the bottom of the shoes near my heel and toe are completely worn down and smooth. I don't even have to tie them, either; just slip the shoes right on/off.

knightni Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I remember a pair of black Nike Air Force David Robinson shoes, but mostly, I got generic stuff from K-Mart because I grew out of them so fast. I went from size 7 to 13 in two years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
