for me it was AI's sneakers ..... MA PLEASE :damn::damn::damn::damn::damn::damn:





can't believe I was begging for some reeboks :mjlol:
My Iverson collection now is ridiculous because of my love for them as a youngster lol. Them Dee Brown Reebok pumps/Iverson crossovers :ohlawd:

To answer the thread though, I had to have the Deion joints. Got two pairs at the same time :wow:

Definitely the answers…I had just got some shoes for my birthday, a month before Christmas…I damn near fell to my knees begging for the answers and she said no

And with my first paycheck, I wanted to blow it on some retro bred 13s…I didn’t have enough and asked her to cover the rest…she said no

I’m still pissed bout both of those

Made up my mind that day that she was going into a home

Pretty much every pair of Jordan's in the 90s, but we were poor so my mom was definitely like NO.

These in particular in 1995/1996, though:
