    My friends made those shirts, I helped sell them for a few days. And yes, they got threatened with lawsuits by the Rockets, so that stopped.

    I still have one in a box somewhere. I hadn't thought about that in years and years, thanks!

    The Vernon Maxwell jersey I had on while going to every home game in the 1994 WCF and NBA Finals. I have no idea what happened to it.

    My Jose Cruz wood bat I got on "bat day" way back in 84 or so. It was not adult size but it was not a little toy either, I think it was 30", I hit balls with that all the time as a kid. I have no idea what happened to it.

    I blame my parents.

    Also, the commemorative baseball from Nolan passing Walter Johnson in strikeouts. Had a Gulf Oil Logo on 1 side, embossed sigs from both of them and their K totals on the other sides.

    Also blame my parents.

    Pure H-Town to sell knock-off sports shirts. Who are the Rockets going to sue? Joe on the corner?

    I bought a fake Astros championship shirt for the irony. No where on them did it say Astros but if you didn't look closely you could tell it wasn't licensed. Then the irony was real.

    Email him on twitter. He sales them autographed cheap.

    I wish I still had all of my Jordans. I could sell for a fortune. I wore size 8 by 2nd grade when the 1s came out so I had pretty desirable sizes throughout his run. I had every pair until he retired for the 2nd time.

    I had several pairs of these and loved them. Not that I would wear them now but they were good jeans. I was a bag boy at Kroger and got picked up by a lady who called me 'The Girbaud Boy'. She was 10 years older than me and was my sugar momma for a couple of months until I dumped her. (kind of messed up when I think about it now but it was amazing when I was 17).

    Speaking in general about the trends. Not me personally, I was too poor and was stuck with what I had unless I outgrew them.

    That does remind me of this one dude who went from Looney Tunes gangster t-shirts to Jerry Jeff Walker tees and Redwings over a three day weekend to fit in with a new crowd.

    Poor b*stard.

    The old crowd must have recognized him as a poser.

    My mom never threw out any of our used clothes from our youths, so last time I went home I was able to find all sorts of Ocean Pacific, Mossimo, Hypercolor, Umbro gear, I think folks still wear Lacoste and Polo,

    I went to a hipster fashion vintage kind of store recently and they were selling all of these vintage shirts and hats like Ocean Pacific for over $60-80 a piece.

    Was in Galveston last weekend and they still have a Yaga’s clothing store. They actually have a lot of the shirts from the 90’s there. Bought a Yaga coozie and a sticker for my cooler. No Stussy however

    An old blue chambray work shirt I wore during the 1960’s. A couple of girlfriends embroidered it (at different times, of course) with all sorts of things. A large ecology flag sewn onto the back. On one pocket was a bearded Deckard leaning against a tree, smoking something, with my dog at my feet. Stylized flowers and leaves here and there on the other pocket. Stitching at the cuffs and elsewhere. I haven’t seen it in over twenty years, but it could be in a box somewhere. Asked my significant other about the shirt and she remembers it, although she wasn’t a contributor. Doesn’t know what happened to it. Misplaced? Lost? Maybe, maybe no.
