  1. Eh…Top one maybe. The others are a pass for me. Was never a ‘BK’ kid. But I’ll at least take a look with future releases. Though I do remember the ads: “It ain’t nuthin’ without the BK button”.

    Gold…*lol*

    Just not seein it, could you tell me what jordans you think these drew inspiration from?

    The only jordans that were released in 1989 were the Is, IIs, IIIs, and IVs. Neither of those look anything like those models.

    I guess the lace loops on the leaders are similar to the IIIs but thats about all I see.

  15. Man, I used to love the black and blue ones with the snake skin on the back part. That was around 87-88. I would cop if they came out with the snake skin ones.
