How it is that you have such a solid collection?
Nike Air Force 1 Low I/O
10. Nike Air Force 1 I/O
Chris says: "This screams out QUALITY. The whole shoe is made
out of leather except the laces. That olive colorway is definitly nice. Leather wrapped midsole is a nice touch. When I took them out of the box, it smelled like I was holding a leather jacket-lol, true story."
Nike Air Trainer 1 Premium (112 Pack)
9. Nike Air Trainer 1 Premium "112 Pack"
Chris says: "I had to represent being from Bed Stuy, Brooklyn. This shoe catches so much attention when I'm out on the streets due to its
neon colors and 3M hits. I think this is the best shoe out of the pack."
adidas Mutombo
8. adidas Mutombo
Chris says: "These released in '92. The shoe was beautiful with the African
colors from the shield on the tongue. The crazy pattern throughout the mid
panels was so dope, and adidas was going to retro them but they got scrapped. Pics of
them released without the 55 and the shield and needless to say, they were wack."
Air Jordan XI IE Low
7. Air Jordan XI IE Low
Chris says: "These released in '03. Very different from the His. They added elephant print, breathable mesh, and a charcoal clear outsole (no
yellowing). Most slept on these."
Nike Flight Lite Mid
6. Nike Flight Lite Mid
Chris says: "This shoe just takes me back to the ’90s with
all of the crazy colors, flat tops, fades and parts on the head. You know, that House Party-type ishh. I love them."
Air Jordan IX Retro "Cool Grey"
5. Air Jordan IX Retro "Cool Grey"
Chris says: "My favorite cool grey Jordan ever
made. I remember before these droped I saw this young kid walking out of the NBA Store on 5th Avenue with the samples on. They had no clear sole; they were
crazy."
Nike Air Trainer Huarache B
4. Nike Air Trainer Huarache B
Chris says: "I wish I bought a second pair. The colorway
is so fresh and the mid strap gives it a dope look. Very comfortable shoe. They are expected to drop again and I'm copping."
Air Jordan Spiz'ike
3. Air Jordan Spiz'ike
Chris says: "The best Spiz'ike ever made in my
opinion. The limited relese, the first colorway to be debut, plus wifey bought
them for my 23rd birthday. NICE!!! It looks like the Sal's pizza box from the
movie Do the Right Thing."
Nike Air Foamposite One
2. Nike Air Foamposite One
Chris says: "One of the illest shoes I have ever laid eyes on. When I was a shorty I couldn't afford these, and neither could or my parents, because the price was
ridiculous. They cost more than Jordans at the time, due to the technology and the process used to make them. Glad to have them."
Nike Total Pillar Max
1. Nike Total Pillar Max
Chris says: "Man, this shoe is very dope. They released in
'98 with the black tumble leather and velour interior. I had the neon colorway in high school. I'm
still on the hunt for those."
