Revisionist History. There's SI stories from the early 90s that said most people werent' actually balling in their basketball shoes. Most of us here were just kids so we did everything in them...

At my high school not very many students wear the hyped Jordan releases and the ones that do end up beating the @*!# out of their shoes in less than a year. The reason for the "Lifestyle Era" is because of the middle-aged NTers who cop 3 pairs of the same shoe on release day and keep two pairs in the closet while wearing the other pair less than once a month.
