college where he was given free sneakers and then the NBA where he was given free sneakers. To this day Nike sends him whatever sneakers he wants. He has pairs that won't release until next year.

- Heh. :-) I feel bad for people with feet larger than a 13. -- nm - Krusty Dec 18, 06:55 4
  - Yeah it sucks. I can’t remember trying shoes on in a store and buying them. Just doesn’t happen. -- nm - Volnelk Dec 18, 06:59 3
    - Dress shoes sometimes. Running shoes, I could get a store to bring them in to try. -- nm - Reagen Dec 18, 07:23
    - My brother is a 15 and I believe he has to order his sneakers online and has limited options. If I ever see a big foot run on Nike I try and grab him - Krusty Dec 18, 07:23 1
      - Yeah I’m a 15. Have several pairs of Vans. -- nm - Volnelk Dec 18, 07:46
Makes sense given his background. -- nm - spamlet Dec 18, 06:50 1
- Yeah. Grew up rather poor in Arkansas. He was only a size 12 until he got his growth spurt near the end of HS so that was lucky because he's a 16 - Krusty Dec 18, 06:55
