Atlanta in the 90’s used to wear Fila’s, Deion Sanders Nikes, Air Max, Jordan’s, and Reebok classics.

New Orleans used to wear Reeboks and Jordan’s

I honestly can’t remember if Houston had a staple sneaker. I was there for the 97’ pippens craze, but I remember A LOT of Jordan’s.

Jordan’s were universal but I wouldn’t mad at Chicago for claiming them, they took that “mikes” shyt to another level.


had a whole song ....

new air max jersey to match ..

People just be saying anything.

The south starting UPTOWNS is absolutely Nutty


I had a pair in ‘96 and I’m from Rochester (roc use to get fashions from NYC 6 months/1 behind, but enough NYC people would relocate here to have an influence aside from the flavor the city already had)

‘98 had the green and white mids w/ the green jets jersey and green akademikz).


A south nothing. They made it a hot line but NY made it a song.

Same here. When I was living in Louisiana for a couple of years, coming from LA and hearing about dudes wearing Reeboks was strange.

The only Reeboks we wore were the Iverson's

AF1s is a Baltimore thing

I always thought it was NY they didn’t even call them Air Force ones until the Nelly song. We in the south used to call them uptowns or Big Nikes.
