As a kid, next to my Kirk Cameron, Michael J Fox & New Kids on the Block pinups, were my Kirby Puckett poster, Michael Jordan poster & a bunch of Air Jordan magazine ads or pages from promo catalog things I got as a member of the Air Jordan fan club. The parents didn't believe in spending $100 on shoes (which would be $200+ now), so I didn't get Air Jordans until I no longer played basketball, and had a "real" job where I couldn't wear them. But I always loved tennis shoes of all kinds! I wore Nike hightops in 5th grade, and rather than being ripped on, other girls started doing it as well. Heck, 70% of my senior class wore red Chuck Taylor hightops for graduation! So I love sneakers. A lot. I've finally stared donating pairs to Courage Center, ARC, etc, but I still have many more than I probably should! At least your shoes are ones you can wear in your regular life!
