I'm 34 and can remember when the II's released with the winged box and the "Made in Italy" tag. I was in high school when the XI's initially released. I remember what they looked liked (because my sister bought them for my nephew). I never got a pair but wanted them badly. However, my mother wasn't about to spend $375 on 3 pair of shoes for school (I had two brothers). I was excited about the release and was looking forward to getting a pair. Unfortunately, things didn't work out. But the funny thing about it is that it really didn't mean matter. When compared to what's really important in my life....wife, daughters, etc....their just another pair of shoes.
