I’m not one of the people who thought Jordan should have never come out of retirement to play for the Wizards. My reason for being happy that he came back to play again was simple; I am selfish. I watched Michael Jordan play on the TV year in and year out, but never had the chance to go see him play. When he was with Washington, I was older and could afford to hop on a plane and go see a game.

The other reason I like these shoes is that I wore them to my high school graduation. I had a black suite, wore the straps over the laces and with the patent leather on the toe, people thought I was wearing normal tuxedo shoes. Comfort & style all in one! These shoes don’t have the best traction, so I never use them to play ball. However, they are very durable. I bought these shoes off the shelf on the first day they came out, which would have been back in 2001. To this day, I still wear these shoes regularly. With a little maintenance, these shoes have kept up very well and I will continue to wear them until the soles are worn down.
