Interesting comments and perspectives coming from people of various ages and different parts of the country. I'm in my 40s and when I came up, kids were getting killed and doing time over Fila sneakers (and no I'm not talking about them ugly Grant Hill basketball shoes). I've been through the Lotto, Ellesse, Fila, Diadora, and Jordan phase since 1980s. A view on economy, the state of the world, and sneakers from the eyes of a young kid during the mid '90s is a whole lot different than from cats who were in their 20s and 30s with disposable income and resources then... Just a heads up, there has always been a group of people heavy into sneakers and collecting sneakers prior to Jordans. Good to see the younger kids preserving the culture
Ha! I'm 40 and I remember all of those shoes. Man where has the time gone. I'm still on the lookout for some of that stuff to comeback!
