What 'Kicks' Are U Rockin?

just another set of Nike Airmax

OG 4s, the greatest shoes of all time! I was the only kid in my school back in 89 that had all four colors because I had a neighborhood lawn cutting business and didn’t value money (still don’t!). Still waiting on an official re-release of the OG military blue shoes which to this day has never happened (lame jumpman on the back doesn’t count!), so the “what the” 4s will have to do for now.

Can’t believe I’m wearing the same shoes since grade school.

I had the white and black OG 4s in middle school as well. They were the most comfortable shoes I ever owned and took a hell of a beating. My parents couldn't fathom paying $110 for shoes back in 1989 so I had to pay $70 of the $110. I really wanted the OG 3s as I think they are the best looking Js ever made but I know they aren't as comfy.

Where do people buy these shoes now? It seems like you have to be so damn careful as there are so many counterfeits out there now. Nike will reintroduce them, but they are bought up immediately.

Yep, the original 4s were like walking on pillows. Kids these days have no idea how uncomfortable the retros are compared to the originals. No contest!

Straight from Nike is the best, or through EBay with their authenticity guarantee is the best I think. I have had a problem yet!

Finally found a comfortable low GTX hiking shoe. Shares general casual duty with a pair of NB 1080s.

My collection so far. I also recently picked up Jordan 1 Mints.

This only started for me in 2018 when the 11 was retroed. I wanted those and Uptempos bad in '96.

I had the original release Uptempo's, pretty good shoe. I miss those old school shoes, that is why I rarely wear my original BRED's from 96. I still have my original Taxi 12's, Indigo 12's and black & white 12's!

I wish it was easier to get Jordans now, with bots and most of the shit being bought before release it has become just irritating

Winter air max 90s

Winter air max 90s

Interesting. Waterproof?

The wheat color ones are water resistant and have grooved sole for more traction. So that’s kinda cool but not true snow/heavy rain

The grey ones are just suede.

Fall Boots. Style is not an option...

These actually have our family's name. My uncle has worked at Timberland forever and was offered to have a shoe named after him. Not sure how that all works, if it's a standard thing or what, but I thought it was cool enough to get some.

Apparently it's like a one year thing because they don't seem to be available now, I'm glad I got them when I found out, not many people besides big name stars or athletes get a shoe named after them.

Some Jordans...

Air Max 90, too many colorways. If I can get away with wearing them somewhere, I will find a way. Got some designer stuff too but the only ones that can match the comfort of the 90s are the ferragamos.

4s are the only jordans I ever liked. On one hand I really wnat a pair of black canvas or oreos but on the other, I already have an airmax 90 problem.

DMP!

Nice acquisition!

The only thing I would have liked better is if the sole was ice like a concord. But then a week later, its not ice anymore so probably better this way!

Thanks! Yeah I do love the concords and that ice blue sole... but these gratitudes are the nest best thing. I like how these have a leather upper instead of the mesh... should be easier to clean and prevent yellowing.

Nike Space Hippie 4
Super lightweight & stylish.

Another spammer scalp for my collection.....
