You sound like me and a bunch of other kids in Pg at the time. you 05 I was 03. This was me in 03 when I use to burn the voucher program up! ( first foams in back)As some know, DMV native here(PG county to be exact). Got my first ever foam based shoe in early 01, which was the charcoal/red Flightpisite 1’s in 8th grade. You couldn’t tell me nothing lol. But, my first ever foamposite’s were the Royal Pro B that came out late 01, but I got them early 02 in 9th grade. Of course, a hater broke into my locker and stole them..smh. I ended having to get the black FP3’s as a “replacement”, which wasn’t mad about and they were on sale for $110.
Now, we’re in 2004(mid 11th grade year). Working at McDonald’s near crossland high school. I ended up getting the all black Foamposites. I loved those shoes! I wore those to the ground. Back when foams were made in Taiwan and were extremely indestructible. Held up for almost 10 years. The soles just wore out, but the uppers were still intact. Now foams aren’t even the same anymore. The mystic of foams in the early 00’s were that they were popular, but not everyone had them. $170 was still somewhat unheard of for some shoes. Wearing foams back than was a status symbol. I really miss that era
