Anyways, they used to have cool shoes back in the day, remember "The Pump"

God, that was a cool shoe! I remember when I was 20 I happened to find a pair of these bad boys in a Marshalls store. I was ready to buy them until I checked the size : 11! one size too small! I tried them on anyway and they didnt even close to fit! Not without crushing my toes into the front which I seriously considered doing until I snapped back into reality and reminded myself that not only would that hurt, but it was impossible!
Second on my list:LA Gear!

Now unfortunately I couldn't find a pic of the LA gears with the multi colored Laces, but you get the picture, lol. LA Gear shoes were the shtuff back in the day! anybody who was anybody had LA Gears! Now when LA Lights came into the picture, they blew the game away, lol. Eventually LA Gear fell out of style and out of the market as well.
Last: British Knights!
Another brand that magically dissapeared after the early 90's. These used to be very popular and they even gave them away all the time on double dare! lol. Great shoes, great times!
Anyway, hope you enjoyed my trip down memory lane!
