As crazy as it was, you were still able to walk into a Footlocker and grab a pair of Cement or BRED 4s when they released. I remember vividly seeing both pairs on display in Footlocker.
My first pair were the Military Blue 4s I got for Xmas 1989 and dudes thought I was rich
I do remember one of my white classmates walking in to class one morning with the BRED 6s and I stared at his feet the rest of the day:ohhh::dwillhuh:
When did they come out:damn::wtf:
We had no awareness of release dates, Js just showed up in stores with little fanfare so if you were first you were the man:myman::mjgrin:

my first pair was the 8s in 2nd grade. I remember getting crazy attention for wearing them, felt like a big shot. They will forever be my fav Js.
