One of the most memorable sneakers that I’d never wear again lol

We was thankful to get a new pair...the budget was $70 between two boys...the clearance rack was the best we could get at Fred's which is like Marshall's and TJ Maxx.

Jordan's, Penny 1's and 2's, and AIRWALKS.

 

[Trips]

I begged my parents and received the Jordan IX's.

Begged and never got the '97 Griffey Cleats

probably why I broke my wrist in a freak play at home that year. If I had the Griffey's I wouldn't have got clipped when I jumped over the catcher lol.
