If you are anything like me that you probably have that one pair of shoes that they loved and wish they could buy again. If you could have a company re-release a pair of shoes, what shoe is it, and why?


When I was younger, Emmitt Smith had reebok shoes that were available to buy in stores. Nike has been "Retroing"(bring old shoes back) so I was thinking about old shoes I loved. Does anybody remember the Reebok ES 22's? I don't really know why I liked them so much, they weren't the best looking shoes ever, but I loved them. Probably just due to the fact that they were Reebok Emmitt Smith shoes, but eitherway, I loved them.

I looked on Ebay and they are going for $200 bucks for a used pair. Insane, I'd never drop that much on a pair of shoes, much less a used pair. Anyways, what are your favorite pair of shoes that you wish they would bring back?

nike prestos running shoes the way they used to be. I have a new pair from the re release but they aren't the same. the old ones I had didn't tie at all just slippe on and were so soft and comfortable they didn't need socks and wouldn't give blisters.

the pair I have now are good but don't compare, and I can't even find a picture of the kind I used to have.

this is the closest I could find due to the cage that doesn't have laces

edit* this is closer to what I had but still not exact

I'd go barefoot all year long if the ground didn't get so blasted hot in Tucson. I hate shoes.

I was going to say the same thing. I don't wear shoes unless I go somewhere that requires them or it's to cold outside. In the summer I am Shoeless Joe Jackson.

Many would be surprised how going barefoot is actually good for you.

I have one pair of dress shoes and some snow shoes, and lots of socks during the winter to walk around the house in.

You and Cody Lundin.

Dual Survivor is one of my favorite survival shows, wife and I both find Cody hilarious. You should check it out if you haven't already.

Me? I live in NYC. I'm not walking anywhere outside my condo barefoot.

I'm a bare foot guy like Hosaroo, but whenever I wear shoes I still wish the ones on my feet were these lebron generation 1s:

or the Allen Iverson's Reebok Answer V:

...these shoes bring back the child hood memories.
