This is my favorite
pair of sneakers ever. My pair were size 8 1/2 and cost $55 on sale
at State Street Sports [now Bivouac] in Ann Arbor in, oh, about 1989 or
1990. One of the things that keeps me going balls-out,
everybody-to-the-limit, 110%-percent-every-day is that there may be a
warehouse somewhere in Thailand full of these in about
maybe 11 1/2, and when they are discovered, I will have the chance
to buy about 50 pair of them and just wear them for the rest of my life.
About a year ago, Nike re-released them, but the colors didn’t
move me.
