Doc did me a solid.
I was jnjured in some kareem's.
When the jordan two was out and had to get my own.
Then later when my foot was still fukked up.
They changed the sky jordan sizing on the three. So i had to get the softback three's as a shawty. When sky jordans on the three scaled up sizing. So on rhe jordan i..
I got sky jordans. But my foot grew to a six. And i could get air jordans. Which was a price hike to 65 from 35. On the jordan two. I had a size six and they were sized for air jordans. Where the two created all this shyt. Where my foot was sized for an air jordan.
at the original first air jordan price hike to 100. So i had to use my gi joe air craft money.
to get the two.
On the three. The sizing went up a size to sky jordans. So you needed a seven and a half.
or some shyt.
to get a pair of the real nike air hard letters on rhe back Of fhe air jordan three.
So i had to get a soft back three. With no air bubble.
I felt so defeated from that shyt. Yet the three in any form got love tho. Then almost overnight. I woke up and my feet just fukking hurt like hell. I kept telling my mom.

My Iverson collection now is ridiculous because of my love for them as a youngster lol. Them Dee Brown Reebok pumps/Iverson crossovers
To answer the thread though, I had to have the Deion joints. Got two pairs at the same time
These retro'd in full black leather are so cold.

None. I accepted what I received as a child when it came to clothing. My childhood had too many problems I had to deal with to worry about what sort of clothing I had.
When I moved to Baltimore, my grandmother gave me money to purchase what I wanted every end of summer before school started. I also augmented that with jobs I had, and money I received from holidays and birthdays. A completely different existence under my grandmother, and I am absolutely thankful she accepted my return to Baltimore as a teenager.

Word; I by know mean am a "sneaker head" but kicks have always been on point. When I did start getting bread I started buying retros from my childhood no doubt.

I aint Fresh ?
My dad would buy my shoes for me. It was our thing to go to Footlocker. Try on the shoes and buy one pair for school and one pair for basketball games.
I vividly remember in third grade. He specifically told me not to bring my Jordan 8s to school…
Of course, we got them on Saturday, Monday I brought those bytches to school to show my friends…
As soon as I pulled them out of my backpack, guess who is walking through the gate to pick me up?…
Pops whooped my ass that night and took the shoes back. And I never got the white Jordan 8s again.
Wait you didn't rock them....you Brought them in your backpack man what

Never really asked my moms for shyt.
I asked my pops for the AI3’s in all black because the middle school I was in had uniforms, but thats the only thing I think I ever asked from them clothes wise.
By the time I cared about fashion I worked and just bought stuff myself. But was never a fashion head really. Just solid colors and nice fitting things
Got a bunch of collectibles I keep in storage but still never even wore most of them
