Post your throwback memories here and a pic if possible...

I'll start:

I remember when L.A. Gear light up sneakers were in style

 

.

 

who remembers this?

 

heroes in a half shell...

 

 

I had a pair of pumps when in the 2nd grade. I also remember having a pair of black L.A. Gear shoes that had the ruffles/ripples on the sides, can't find a pic. I loved those!



also brings back memories:






Mine was black:



remember these tape adapters, lol

 

 

I do! Pepsi Clear was pretty good, I remember first trying it with the then "new" hot cheetos.

 

i remember when 3 second anti skip portable cd players first came out at about $300 causing the regular, skips-if-you-even-look-at-it-wrong, portable cd players to drop to $120-$150.

 

Wow! Those were priceless I must've had about 3 pairs!!

But who remembers the Tomagatchi???

 

the little electronic pet things?!? hahaha!

 

Gigapets! and some other names that they had for different brands...

 

Gigapets were the bomb, but I'll roll with Furby any day.



-THE DON

 

i couldn't afford the $100 of reebok pumps, so i had to settle with "reverse jams" in 5th-6th grade.

 

-THE DON

 

Kangaroo sneakers...you know, the ones with the pocket built into the side that Walter Peyton was promoting.

I'm thinking of buying a pair off Zappos since they started making them again...if I can find a style I like.

 

ROOS...they came back last year.

 

Gee, it's so hard to remember all those things you 20-25 year olds are mentioning. *sarcasm* lol



I had the one that you pulled a string and he'd say things like "shazbot".

 

 

I have the same pair of Roos I bought in '02
