Anyway, back to the story. After several hours of trying to convince my parents in the blistering heat in Spain, I finally got my father to buy me my first pair of Air Jordans, the Air Jordan 8 Aqua.

I wore those kicks everyday, too school, to practice and sometimes to bed… Eventually my feet grew and I got to a point where I couldn’t wear them anymore without causing major toe injury. So, in the end my mom convinced me to give them away to a friend of the family. I still remember the feeling I got when I opened that box, smelled the suede and inspected the shoe in EVERY angle.
The AJ8 Aqua is a beautiful shoe and one day I’m going to buy another pair, mostly for nostalgic reasons but also because the color way is just amazing.
Here's a bonus picture taken just hours after I walked out of the sneaker shop with my first pair of Jordans.

Bästa! Mvh Mr. Sik
