With all the Retro buisness going on it seems we relive our child hood and memories of shoes from teenage to early childhood years. With that in thought through the mid 80's to early 90's sneaker designs began to get bolder and more innovative which to some was a golden era in kicks to some. Of course alot of this was attributed to Jordan Brand early years however there was millions of dollars given for sneaker contracts starting to emerge for other brands that seemed to come and go or just fade into the memories of sneaker heads alike as Nike dominated the court and feet of the youth. I sat and thought and though this is just a short list and there are PLENTY more I figured I would give a look at and salute to some of the best NON Nike or Jordan Brand shoes from the "golden era" that I would like to see retro'd. Now some of the shoes shown have been retro'd and some I heard are planning to be but what sneakerhead would turn down a retro repeat? A personal top 5 includes the Adidas Mutumbo, the Pony "Spud Webb", Larry Johnsons signiture Converse (Cons) Aero, Hakeem Olajuwon's signiture Spalding shoes and the Patrick Ewing Signiture Rogue II in no specific order. There are plenty more to choose from these are just a few fabulous 5. What non Nike classic shoes would you like to see retro'd. Hit us up in the comments and let us know.
