I just read someones post about a certain pair of sneakers and their story behind them. Mine is about the Jordan XX stealth.
Growing up (loving jordans) my grandfather and i hadnt had a close relationship, because my mom wouldnt let me. He only had few times where we could betogether a year and one day back about 3-4 years ago my grandfather took me to the mall, we were in a footlocker and there i seen the jordan xx stealth on thesale rack for $80 and then i thought they were the greatest shoe ever. I begged him to get me them. he told me no and carried on to all the people in the storehow he goes to k-mart and buys his sneakers for 7 dollars. i was furious. i had a 20 dollar gift card to that store and i bought my self some green chucks. Iwas furious. Later that year my mother told me why she didnt want me with my grandfather and i was heartbroken ( a personal reason). i always wanted to knowwhy she wouldnt let me near him and wouldnt let me get a close relationship with him, i then knew why. I wouldnt talk to him after that. I seen him Twice since3 years ago and on those occasions i went off on him about what i knew. He called me repeadedly trying to get a hold of me i didnt want nothing to do with him.One day i came home from school (november '0 grabbed the mail seen my name opened it and come to find out it was from him. He apologized to me and stuffbegging me to forgive him. I wrote him back with some unpleasent words and i also added in how he was too cheap to get me the "jordans" i wanted, bythe way he knew nothing about sneakers and only knew they were jjordans i knwo he didnt even know what they looked like being that i never showed him the shoei asked if hed get me and 80 dollar shoe. I got a package in the mail on December 21st 2009, inside was a size 10 1/2 pair of fusion 20's stealth colorwaywith a letter with in big letter sayin I LOVE YOU I AM SORRY. My mom told me two days later she got a phone call, he hung himself. These might be the cheapestsneaker i have going for about 90 dollars in stores but these are the most meaningful sneakers i have. It was a very weird cooincidence that he got me thefusion 20s when i wanted the 20s 3 years back. Let me Know what You think about my story!!!
