My most memorable back-to-school shoe was the White/Cement Air Jordan 3 retro from 1994. That was my sophomore year in high school. I wanted the Black Cements, but they didn’t have my size at Champs. So, I went to Feet First to see if they had them, but instead, they were stocking the White Cements. I remember some people asking me why I would buy an old shoe design, but I knew that wearing an old Jordan was cool and judging by the retro craze of the last few years, I was right.
