15 Sneakers We’re Most Thankful For Returning in ‘09
Posted by George Kiel III | Nov 26, 2009#11 - Nike Air Max 95

Much like the previously mentioned Air Max 1s, there are some sneakers we will never lose sight of no matter how many new styles and colorways release. The classic Air Max 95 colorways, such as the “Mint”, “Chili”, “Fresh Water” and the “Team Orange”, all released periodically throughout this year. In addition, many are setting their eyes on the “Comet” and “Slate” colorways for 2010.

What a year! My five:
1. Space Jams (pre-ordered!)
2. Jordan 12 white/red (tryin’ to lock that one down)
3. Penny 2 Atlantics: damn you for being a quickstrike! ‘Settled’ for the black/white/royals Penny 2s
4. Jordan TB 3s: got mine! Oh Canada!
5. Air Max 95: waiting to hit clearance, will pick up the freshwaters
Honourable mention: Jordan 1 purple metallics. Waiting to arrive from Hong Kong.
Was never a fan of foams (too bulky. to me flightposites are the real ‘eggplants’)
2010 has some great (Jordan) stuff coming up too: powder blue 9s, white/red 6s…there goes my paycheck!

And to the folks saying GUCCIs should be on this list…
Could you please read the TITLE:
“15 Sneakers We’re Thankful for RETURNING in ‘09″
How can a Gucci RETURN or be retro’ed when it never had an actual release?
Samples do not count as releases.
Nov 26, 2009 at 4:00 pm
Not only did the sole get pulled from the rising suns but they pulled the retro card as well lol
Nov 26, 2009 at 3:45 pm
I didn’t get a retro card with my rising suns..i thought those were the first pair to deem the return of the RC
