I vividly recall standing on the corner of 1st and High Street in 1995, where a video store once thrived. That corner was notorious for its hand-to-hand sales, dice games, and the casual loitering of locals. My building was just across the street, giving me a clear view of anyone approaching. Then, I spotted him, strutting towards the corner in Guess jean shorts, a Polo t-shirt, and the Neon Air Max 95s. As he crossed the street, the entire corner stared at the kicks! Their colors were mesmerizing, and when they made a comeback in '98, they were undeniably the must-have sneaker!
Fast forward thirty years and at least ten pairs later, they’re back! Limited edition, of course! In a true sneaker addict's panic, I was frantically trying to secure a pair. To my astonishment, not only was i surprised with a pair, but I was also invited to an event at the MoMA celebrating the Air Max 95, where I had exclusive access to the Reverse 95s, a sample originally made in 1995!
