After graduating college and getting a job in the real world several years ago, one of my first "splurge" purchases was a pair of Air Jordans because no matter how much I begged and pleaded as a kid, my parents never bought them for me. I was the kid wearing British Knights while my friends bought Nike Air's and popped the air bubbles with their pens. Oh how I wanted to pop an air bubble!
I remember cutting my neighbors yards to to save for these shoes. Also had the blue/Black and the White/Black.
I still wear those Franchise X-Beams. I've had 3 (all black, red/white, and blue/white) pair of them and they're really light in weight, so I wear those when I play basketball.
Always Nikes, never Reeboks. In h/s, I first wore the Converse Weapon (in black of course, just like Larry Legend. I always imagined myself as the Asian Bird at 6'5"), but I later switched to Air Jordans in my senior year waaaaaay back in 1986. I scored 21 the first night I wore them and as I walked off the court, my grandfather said to me in Japanese "It's got to be the shoes." I fell out laughing, but everyone else just stared. Now I wear a pair of Nike Air Jordan XVIII's, expensive, but the best money can buy.
Nike Shox Supremacy I wear these currently, got them for 90 bucks plus tax back in June. Comfortable shoes, you feel really light when wearing them.
I have these from Academi Sports & Outdoor. Comfortable. Cheap (about $50). Good-looking. They're called Nike Air Flight Lite and no sports athlete endorses them (hence my reason to buy them).
