What shoes did you forget you owned?

words_Brian Edbury

I found these original Jordan XIV’s last week. I had completely forgotten I still had them.

I was moving some sneaker boxes around in my closet (making room for 2 pairs of  Space Jams due to be delivered) and stumbled across these OG’s from 1998.  Years ago I had played indoor basketball in them, then some outdoor ball too and retired them before they got too beat up.  Now that I have found them again, they will be this winter’s beaters!

What shoes have you found again, after forgetting you had them?

    I got an OG pair as well… Didn’t like the retro of this colorway in wich they changed the side panel to go for the perforated panel of Last Shots… Mine are beat up to death… But since a gift from my mom… the last pair she offered me to this day… i’ll keep em in my closet…

    I discovered my pair of 1985 OG Air Jordan 1′s (Holy Grails)!
    I forgot about them until the internet became mainstream in the mid 1990′s
    and I saw someone had sold a pair for a grip… 35k or some crazy number.
    That jarred my memory real fast…ran to the garage dug through the boxes from my
    divorce..and indeed there laid the “Holy Grails” in NDS condition.

    Happy I found out their value after the divorce or she would have
    never given them up!
    No mtter what i gave up in the divorce.. I still got my Jays’s!
