I've always been a huge fan of the Air Jordan shoe. This love dates back to when I was a kid - growing up in Chicago and watching the Bulls - every kid wanted to be like Mike! For many of us, the only way to be like Mike was to buy his shoe. Thank god my cousin worked for Footlocker and got me 40% off - so each year I was able to cop a pair. I kept every single pair of original Jordans. Then I went away to college and one day I came home to visit and noticed my shoes were gone. What happened to them? It ends up that my mom and grandmother sent the shoes to the Philippines for my family. In my opinion, that is equivalent to a mother tossing a valuable collection of baseball cards in the trash.
Every now and then Jordan comes out with "retro" shoes, although they are not as good as the originals - it will have to do. I don't buy every single pair (since my cousin does not work for Footlocker anymore) but I do buy my favorites. I also got my sons into them - LOL!
I decided to mess with the camera and took pictures of my toddler's Jordan Retro III's. Here are some of my favorite shots....

#3, I like how the Jumpman logo is the only thing in focus and nice touch on having the Bulls jersey in the background.
ReplyDeleteGood Job! I just got my SLR less than 2 years ago and I'm just starting to enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteI like photo #1 bc of the repetition. It's artistic.
ReplyDeleteI like how the shoe in the middle of the line in photo #1 is clear, while the others are blurred. Great shot of the logo. Reminds me of a shoe store with shoes lined up on a rack.
