Cherry 13's ?
I don't care about "nicknames" but Cherry is just dumb. I don't get it. Who was the first person to say a Cherry is red so I'm gonna call these Js cherry? What's wrong with just saying red?
i've gotten used to the nicknames over the years. it's no biggie. it's just that some nicknames suit some pairs and almost seem like official nicknames at this point and some don't. like "bred" should be universally accepted at this point for any classic black and red Js. or "black toes" should be accepted for the corresponding 1s and 14s. or "chicagos" for the corresponding 1s and 9s. or "playoffs" for the corresponding 12s and 13s. but i don't accept other nicknames for other shoes. for instance some ppl call "He Got Game" 13s "black toes" and that doesn't fit imo even tho they have a black toe. for some reason, i can accept "cherry" for the 12s, but it just doesn't sit right with the white/red 13s. i know, i'm weird.
