Finally after 13 years I got them back!

Before chasing and hunting watches, my addiction was sneakers. I bought a pair of these Jordan XVII's in high school and dropped $200 of my hard earned money. I had them for only two days before they got stolen from my gym locker. Being a 17 year old at the time I was devastated, my prized possession was stolen from me and I didn't have the means to get them again.

Fast forward to last Saturday, Nike finally rerelease these and I was first in line for them. I'm happy as a little kid to put these on today, and now that I have a bit more means, I can match them with my Everose DD2


Moments like this make me realize it's the little things that make you the happiest!

Nice! Love Jordans. I still have them too!

I'm older so I'm into 1's. Wanted some of these when I was younger but back then only school and no job so couldn't afford them (plus my parents weren't into $100 shoes ).
