Only person in this entire thread with a brain.

well at least the shoes lived a long 18 year life in your possession.

RIP and bread crumbs indeed...

 

[ijumpman]

WOW. It just looks like a bunch of broken cookies.

 

[wangjiaming35]

[mrtramericanjr]

My Deadstock pair i wanna get restored, got em off a friend who's bro had a very nice og/older retro collection but had em all sealed in bags and silca packs

My Photo op of em

Woah those shoes look like they have been through some trying times.

 

[lbcol]

looks like you at least got your moneys worth on those

 

[jordansanity23]

Those 94's did their time. Yikes! I dont think shoes produced nowadays can last that long.

 

[toughmoney]

Have my condolences

And thats why i wont wear any OGs unless its AJ 12 and up. Sole Swaps, restorations, crumbling, its just a shoe. OGs need display cases if your "collecting". And seeing how you have multiple, learn from your mistake, throw those in a display and charge people to look at'em. P.S. Nice OGs

Man that sucks , My Infrareds from 2000 are also starting fall apart

 

[marcushatten]

crumbled for sure

 

[kpingol27]

wow R.I.Pieces lol sorry had to do that .

 

[lewbez]

DAMMMMMMM... That sux... sorry dude!

 

[23 grappler]

Hate to see this... My '94 White Cements are one of my favorite pairs and they're super hard to find. I'd be devastated if they fell apart.

Man thats rough! But thats what happens to these old shoes. At the very least you had some good wears out of them. The only 94 pair that is wearable are the 1s. I love my pair and I wear them all the time. I would love to have a 94 pair of 3s but only for display purposes. Wearing anything from 2000 and under is getting more and more risky. Its becoming really hit and miss. I've seen 99 ivs that look bulletproof and are worn on the regular, and pairs that crumbled to dust.

This is why I wear my shoes, I feel bad when I have DS that I know I can't wear

 

[Original Playa Records]

Keep rocking OG's.

 

[soversotowel]

some of these pics are disturbing

 

[midnight hype]

Are you gonna give it a proper burial? or would you cremate it. If so, when is the funeral? so i can pay my respect...

 

[lacesunlimited]

that is crazy! sorry to hear

 

[armen594]

wow that sucks

 

[sneaker champ]
