Christmas 98'

[daddyrabbit251]

So I was chilling at my grandma's crib for the holidays and I noticed that the woman had really keeped and packed away alotta stuff from when I was a kid.So I was roaming through some boxes and I came across this Eastbay mag from Christmas of 98'. I looked through and just saw so many great kicks on sale,discontinued, ect.... I was looking through like

sneaks really aren't the same now a days

Most of the shoes in this mag if they are retroed nikeand other companies charge you a arm and a leg for very poor quality sneakers...but I just thought that it was crazy that alotta of the kicks in this mag Istill want 10yrs later.....

I posted this in the Jordan forum cause their were alotta Jordans in the pics so if this is the wrong forum mods handle that











XIIs on sale for $90 (the wht/reds should've been in this upcoming CDP imo), Battle Forces

The wmns XIII lookin better than most fusions now a days







GPs goin for $75, Foam Pros discontinued at $100

The 1st Answers in all flavors for fiddy, Rodmans, XIIIs on clearance for $100, even the Sheryl Swoops joints was ite





So many dope kicks, 98' was a good year

Good find and good post.

You should try ordering some of those Jordans with the original order form from the magazine and see what they say.

Date a check 98' and act like it got lost n the mail for 10 years....
