after he see some clips of jordan and how great he was, THEN you can worry about helping him out with the J's........
he'll be one of the few kid's when he arrives at his jr high or high school to know alot about the history of MJ AND the shoe's he's played in...and he'll owe that all to you, his big uncle.
Yeah, but he wants some fresh kicks for Christmas, not a dvd. He'd probably be bummed as hell if I gave him a Jordan DVD instead of new sneakers, then said "study up,kid! Then we'll talk! "![]()

Time for a valuable life lesson, "you can't have everything that you want." Even though Christmas really is for the kids, your nephew should learn to be appreciative of whatever sneakers you end up getting him (whatever your budget allows) and also of an Uncle who cares enough to ask for advice in an internet forum. Take it from me, I started my son early and now it has somewhat come back to bite me in the %@%.

IMO this would probably be your best method, cause think about it, he is only 10 and 9 times out of 10 he's going to destroy them within the next year or so, so in the end both of you get what you want. He gets his Js and you get to save your $$$
