No, "pre-2001" was just my reference to when Niketalk began, which was suggested by the comment I replied to.Originally Posted by eyes of hazel

And in Boston (where I was living at the time), all the retros were available well after release dates. In fact, the Black/Infrared VIs went on sale, and the Laney and Wht/Silver Vs were on clearance. I remember in 1994, when the Is, IIs and IIIs came out they were around for a long time as well.
My whole point was that its ridiculous to downplay the impact of the internet when it comes to the rise in popularity of sneakers. The birth of NT (and other shoe-related websites), the rise of eBay and secondary market sites, these are all key reasons why this hobby and passion for sneakers became a mainstream phenomenon...

I keep it simple with these... rock all black or dark denim jeans + a black tee with slimer from Ghost busters would be an Epic tee or crew neck (hint hint to tshirt makers) with touches of red & white for the gb insignia
Plus maybe a fly snap back

But I'm from DMV, where GENERATIONS behind me prided themselves off kicks, since the 70s. Where ever you see a Mickey Ds, there's a shoe store.
But, you talking about '94, when its common knowledge that the first series of Jordan retros sat (besides in the inner cities, as usual). I got my IIs for $40 from some shop in Montana, lol.
And -- Just FYI -- It's also common knowledge that the Vs you mentioned went on clearance everywhere. At that time, NO ONE was feeling the "jumpman" on the back and different colors, and thinner laces. I was working at footlocker during ugrad days when they went to 49.99.
So I don't understand you points there talking about those Jordans... But its all gravy.

This is true to a degree. The bred cw typically always sold out instantly, however the other Jordan cw were easier to obtain and would sit, but slowly sell out eventually. I believe this to be accurate imo.
