Nice vid and that sounds like a great pick up.  I was with you every step of the way until you said Nike does a fantastic job. You lost me there.

Nike Grid Trainer.  These are too ill.  I wish they were a 10.5 or 11.

You just took me back to 7th grade!! I believe these were a Diamond Turf takedown, of sorts. I forgot I even had these(mine was the blk/red/white colorway). I know Nike's basketball shoes are legendary, but their turf shoes were impressive to me too (hence my screen name lol).

You ain't lying about Nike's trainers!! I went against the grain back in the 12th grade on my high school basketball team. Everyone decided to get the Air 2 Strong, I played in the Air Mission, Blk/white Veer's, and unleashed the Diamond Fury's for the state tournament. Was contemplating the buying the Nike Air Up "Penny's", but didn't. That was a dumba** move in hindsight. But those trainers were ill.

Damn double post.

No lie, if I could get wearable pairs of Air Ups and Air Missions (both in white/blue and black/blue/white), I'd be done with sneakers.

One of my good friends had these when we were young and I completely forgot about them until I cracked the box open.  So dope....and I so wish they were at least a half size bigger.

@Primo456 That is not me in the video. Just a good story that I thought should be shared in this thread.

Oh cool.  That guy stumbled across the mother load for sure!!!  Thanks for sharing.

I just dug up another pair of Darwins in Pine green.  I like these.  Once again too small for me though.

Pardon the non-OG footwear, but this felt appropriate.

Wear Test Samples of the '03 Retro
Deadstock with custom box.
(Retro released version did not have the white accent piping around the heel counter.)

Unfortunately I'm nowhere close to a sz 9

^^ Very nice! Hardaway was the man!!

^Yeah those samples are extra clean.

Some Bajas.  Eddie Jones used to rock these in the all black.  Underrated shoe IMO.

Those are the ones with the removable inner boot right? I remember those in all black. Very underrated indeed.

Yessir.  Remove the inner boot and insert these.

Thanks.  It's died down a lot over the past couple months.  You can only list so much OG heat or have so much of it.

  I'm trying to get it going again.

1996 Air MUCH Uptempos.  Gary Payton rocked this colorway in the 96 Olympics.

Sorry I looked a few days ago and couldn't find anything.  I'm usually pretty good at finding stuff or at least getting close to it but you have me stumped.  Sorry.

Great stuff to all of you that posted.  I normally get an email whenever someone responds here but I haven't received one lately. 

Another pair of Missions I recently dug up.

Nice, how many versions of the uptempo were there?
