I'm losing interest in these slowly...I want to see a picture that captivates the essence of these.

did you lose interest when they drop in 2001 or you said im getting those no doubt bout that ??? i want to know cause i believe people are feelin different about jordan retros in 2010.. then they was years ago.. Yes i do agree these kicks are hot but these are looking like one on one's.. Every pair look different.. Good pick up though homie!!
LOL well I was almost 15 years old when I was in line for these when they dropped in 2001 at ParmaTown Mall.
For me, at the time - I was just looking for a basketball shoe that matched my CYO team uniforms which were Burgandy/Grey. So when I found out about these dropping, I had to get them - an All-Grey XI shoe?! At that time, that was sort of unheard of. I had just bought the SpaceJams 3 months prior for my middle school basketball team because it semi-matched my uniform but these Cool Greys were something that looked flawless with my CYO uniforms.
I had a game that very day on March 3rd, 2001 at 1:00pm. So all I wanted to do was buy these and go straight to my game. But everything between 9:00am and 1:00pm was HECTIC. Me, my brother and my friend all were lucky enough to get a pair because the other dudes in line didn't follow instructions when the guy working at Footlocker said to line up in front of the register. Instead, everyone rushed in front of the inventory room just screaming out their size, just ambushing the workers. And the manager simply asked us, "you guys, what size do you wear?" Ahh man we were so excited. Mad dudes were scoping us out trying to follow us to our car but luckily my friends mom was already waiting for us in the car. Everything happened so fast after we paid for our pairs but I just remember security rushing to the store and pepper spraying people because they were abusing the workers.
So I barely made it to my game that day. I ran to the locker room, threw them on with aon my face and wore them that very day...I may have pictures of me wearing them but I have to look around..
But that's why these mean a lot to me. Anyone who was part of the first Cool Grey XI release would tell you this: that's probably when the Jordan Retro hype all began...if you would've seen NT back than!
p.s. Can you imagine how the Cherrywood 16's went with my uniforms?
