Kicking off the concept, 15-year old Sheridan Brenton placed his school colors on a black base, popping with a paisley print and his favorite proverb.

Tony Taylor Jr. was miles ahead of the sneaker game with a loud and detail filled Air Jordan 1. From the palm trees to the choice of colors, this DB set the tone in the collection’s early days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

12-year old Jordan Dark brought the Air Jordan 6 to the light by brightening up the suede and scoring it with inspirational messages like, “What time is it? Game time.” The best part? 06\/08 imprinted on the side panel is a nod to when he finished his treatment. That’s what’s up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
