[QUOTE="Deleted member 3701, post: 10182, member: 3701"] I lived out of the city a bit, so I never got to hang out with with other kids from school very much. They all seemed to wear Umbros and nike/adidas shorts all of the time. And my family was not as affluent as some of the other families. The nylon stuff was a lot more expensive then (it is now again too), so I ended up with cheaper clothing I had to wear to school. i think that’s what started it, it became the “forbidden fruit” for me. Couldn’t afford it, everybody that wore it was basically out of my league for hanging out with (or asking to borrow some to wear) In junior high, I finally had the breakthrough. There was a lost and found bin in the Phys. Ed locker room. I saw a pair of Nike shorts and a pair of Umbro shorts in there once. I took them, and ended up wearing them in gym class the rest of the year. Ended up getting another pair of umbro’s and my first pair of nylon pants that way too. The nylon pants and jackets started exploding the next couple years, everybody in the world was wearing the black adidas pants with the 3 stripes down the leg. So was I, at that point. It was ON!! lol [/QUOTE]
