Ewing Memories
Growing up there was no bigger New York/ Patrick Ewing fanatic that I knew than my man Jerry. So naturally when this model dropped he had to have them. We both got them as a surprise Christmas gift from a close friend of the family, and I believe we were the only two in town with the all blue joints. When the Christmas break was over and it was time to stunt back in school, "Where did you get those?" was a question that got asked 1000x that day and of course I had the mini basketball and chain dangling. Easily one of my favorite shoes ever.
Nike Air Raid Memories
The Nike Air Raid came out when I was in middle school and I remember a lot of kids saying that they were going to get a pair to go back to school. They were hot at the time and it was one of the "must have shoes" to stunt on the first day. My Mom wasn't spending the cash for them on my "under $50" school shoe budget, so she copped me some look alike fake joints from Payless. (XJ900's) Needless to say I got roasted on that first day, and every time I see this shoe this is the embarrassing memory it brings back. Thank you Nike.
